Giveaway: The Happy Herbivore Cookbook

I'm so excited to offer a great giveaway: The Happy Herbivore Cookbook! I bought this book at the beginning of the year and have made countless recipes. And if you've been following this blog you probably know that I enthusiastically tested recipes for Lindsay's next cookbook. I'm so grateful to Lindsay for inviting me because I fell in love with so many great new recipes and continue to make them. Lindsay's recipes...
  • Are quick and easy to make. While I was doing home renovations and had no time for cooking, I made HH recipes, which generally take anywhere from 5 to 15 minutes, and they're super easy.
  • Use basic ingredients you'll likely have on hand. Only rarely do I need to shop for ingredients for HH recipes. The craziest thing you'll encounter is nutritional yeast.
  • Are budget friendly. Because I usually have most of the ingredients, I saved a lot of money when making HH recipes.
  • Use wholesome, natural ingredients. Lindsay doesn't use white flour, refined sugar, or oil. HH recipes are based on whole, natural foods.
  • Are fat-free or low-fat. Lindsay's recipes convinced me that fat-free doesn't mean flavor free. If you're watching your weight or just want to balance your meals with some lighter food, HH recipes are perfect.
  • Are delicious! Seriously. I won't compromise taste to save a few calories. They're fantastic!
Many HH recipes are my all-time favorites, and I make them every week. If I've convinced you to try these recipes, entering the giveaway is easy! Just visit the Happy Herbivore website and choose either your favorite recipe or one you'd like to try if you haven't tried any yet. Then post a comment below listing the recipe name. That's it! I'll write down everyone's names, put them in a bowl, and have someone besides me pull the winning name. I'll keep the contest open for a week and name the winner in another blog post next Monday, May 16. But be sure to have your email associated with your comment so I can get in touch with you (like, don't name yourself "Anonymous" without an email or website).

Good luck...and when you get this book, you have to try the Queso Sauce! It may be one of my all-time favorite recipes ever.

    Since kale is my new favorite veggie, I saw the African Kale and Yam soup right off the bat and my mouth started watering. This is my next cookbook I want to buy but I'd love to win it instead! Thanks for the chance. www.megwetch.blogspot.com

    Um, hellooooo....Chocolate Glazed Donuts! Everything looks so good, but if I had to choose a favorite to try, it would definitely be something sweet and chocolatey :) {elizgodawgs(at)yahoo(dot)com}

    Thanks for the chance to win!

    They all look good, but I'm going to have to go with the Caribbean peas and rice. I love black eyed peas and I love kale, so this looks like a great combination.

    Hi!

    I had never heard of this book until I found your blog a few months ago and saw that you seemed to be making things every day or so! Thanks. I am going to try the Southwest Zucchini Pie!

    Mmm.... cauliflower potatoes or chai oatmeal... yum! I tried to make the quiche with greens the other day but couldn't find nutritional yeast at the store :( !!! They all sound yummy though!

    I want to try so many but the one that I have been staring at forever is the chocolate glazed donuts. I have a donut pan so perhaps the only reason I have not made them is bathing suit season is upon us. :-( Perhaps I'll move onto the Chana Palak Masala.

    I *LOVE* the eggless egg salad. I've made it a number of times and it seems to get better every time. I definitely need to make more of her recipes, as they are so easy, low-fat and fast! I need all of those things. :)

    For some reason it'll never let me post from my WP ID from my iPhone. I left a comment yesterday (Megan Nelson). All my info should post this time. Thanks again!
