Truly Healthy Vegan Cookbook by Dianne Wenz, Rockridge Press, Callisto Publishers, 174 pages


“I will also be sharing recipes for healthy
veganized versions of comfort food favorites,
such as burgers, tacos, and macaroni and cheese.”
Dianne Wenz, Introduction, page ix




This cookbook starts with An Unhealthful Vegan Diet and Top 10 Vegan Diet Mistakes, The Healthy Vegan Pantry, and Allergy Alert: How to Swap Ingredients. There are 10 chapters with Chapter 9 dedicated to Pastas, Noodles, and Rice. That immediately drew my attention to this section because I love pasta.

The recipe Homemade Vegetable Stock is not just for vegans but any cook that uses stock in preparing any recipe requiring such an ingredient. Included are a Prep and Cook Vegetable Chart and Produce Storage Guide that proves to be helpful and useful to every cook.

This cookbook will be sent to my daughter living in Sweden who is a vegan and has been for many years. She will be very happy and surprised to receive this gift because she loves to cook and bake but has a hard time finding worthy vegan cookbooks.

Recipes I chose to prepare are Pad Thai and Strawberry Nice Cream. The Pad Thai had a wonderful taste and the Strawberry Nice Cream was a little tart for my taste. The pictures are posted below.


I received this cookbook from Callisto Publishers in exchange for an honest review in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission Guidelines.
