My Top 10 Vegan Cookbooks

March 24, 2014 9 Comments

When I first switched to eating a vegan diet, it was tough. Not easy. I felt like I was giving up so many times, until one day a friend introduced me to a few vegan food blogs. I started making their recipes and doing some experimenting of my own in the kitchen, and in no time at all, I was no longer feeling deprived. Far from it, actually!

I also bought a few vegan cookbooks in the beginning (#3, #7 and #10), because I love cookbooks so much more than just browsing around aimlessly online. I’ve since added a bunch more cookbooks to my collection, and have also checked a few out from the library to help inspire me in the kitchen.

Top Vegan Cookbooks

The following are my top 10 favourite vegan cookbooks that I’ve used (listed in no particular order). I recommend them to anyone starting out (or just want some inspiration) with vegan eating. They have been invaluable to a semi-new vegan like me!
