    Fast Easy Cheap Vegan!!!

    I have a confession. I've been keeping a secret from you. Over the last year, I've had a project on the go that I haven't spoken about at all. I wanted to tell you about it, I really did. I wanted to share every little detail of the process, but I was instructed not to tell anyone, it was to be a surprise. But secret no more, I'm finally allowed to talk about it.

    I WROTE A NEW VEGAN COOKBOOK!

    Surprise!!!!!!!

    After the crazy success of my first cookbook Fuss-Free Vegan, (which became a bestseller and is now in its 9th printing), I was getting a ton of demand for a second cookbook.

    Well, ask and you shall receive. I introduce to you my brand new shiny cookbook, Fast Easy Cheap Vegan. And here it is in all its beauty ↓↓↓

    Fast Easy Cheap Vegan! 101 Recipes that all take 30 minutes or less to prepare, require 10 ingredients or less, and cost $10 or less. New vegan cookbook by the bestselling author Sam Turnbull. This is the perfect vegan cookbook for beginners and master cooks alike. Simple enough to make on a busy evening, tasty enough to wow everyone at the table.  Pre-order it today! #itdoesnttastelikechicken #vegan #cookbook

    I'm literally shaking as I type this, I'm just SO excited. Fast Easy Cheap Vegan is jam-packed with 101 scrumptious vegan recipes. But it's so much more than that...

    Every recipe takes 30 minutes or less, requires 10 ingredients or less, and costs $10 dollars or less!

    Can it get better than that!?

    Over the years as a vegan blogger and cookbook author, I've heard the same concerns over and over again: "Vegan food is too expensive. Vegan food is too complicated. Vegan food is too time-consuming."

     

    With this book it was my goal to bust ALL of those misconceptions. I wanted to show you how vegan food can actually be affordable, simple, and quick! And that's what I did. You won't believe how many delicious, hearty, drool-worthy dishes you can prepare in lightning speed, with only a few ingredients, and for cheap too!

    I've been making all of these recipes on repeat as the recipes have become go-to staples for me. This is the perfect vegan cookbook for beginners and master cooks alike. Simple enough to make on a busy evening, tasty enough to wow everyone at the table. 

    Fast Easy Cheap Vegan! 101 Recipes that all take 30 minutes or less to prepare, require 10 ingredients or less, and cost $10 or less. New vegan cookbook by the bestselling author Sam Turnbull. This is the perfect vegan cookbook for beginners and master cooks alike. Simple enough to make on a busy evening, tasty enough to wow everyone at the table.  Pre-order it today! #itdoesnttastelikechicken #vegan #cookbook

    SO WHAT'S IN THIS BOOK:

    • 101 easy vegan recipes! Only 5 of the recipes in this book are also on the blog, the rest of the recipes (96) are completely unique to the book, and will never be posted on the blog. 
    • All your munching needs are covered- breakfasts, snacks, soups, salads, noodles, mains, and desserts.
    • An entire chapter on pantry-friendly mixes. No need to buy the over-priced store-bought mixes, make your own in 5 minutes! I'm talking pancake mix, muffin mix, cake mixes, gravy mix, and so many more. Just add the ingredients to a jar, shake, and store until you want to whip up a batch of something scrumptious. Talk about convenient!
    • All recipes use ingredients you can easily find at your local grocery store. No weird or hard to find ingredients.
    • Might I remind you that EVERY RECIPE in this book uses just 10 ingredients or less, cost 10 dollars or less and takes 30 minutes or less to prepare!
    • And of course, I'm the kinda person who loves cookbooks that are jam-packed full of photos, so I made sure to include a beautiful picture for every single recipe.

    Fast Easy Cheap Vegan will be released on March 30, 2021, but you can pre-order it now so that you will be one of the very first to get your hands on a first edition copy! The book will be available worldwide, so you can pre-order from your favourite bookseller. Here are a few places that are selling it for pre-order online:

    Amazon Amazon Amazon
    Barnes & Nobel Indigo Blackwell's
    Target Kobo  
    Apple Books Shop independent WORLDWIDE
    Google Play   Book Depository
    Bookshop   Kobo
         
         

    I know many of you may be considering pre-ordering this book as a gift, it's the perfect last-minute gift idea! So I've made these two gift cards that you can print or email once you order the book, so you have something to put under the tree (virtual or real)!

      WOO HOO! I was JUST asking your on-line help person about the possibility of a new cookbook. I am so happy. I've already pre-ordered. My husband and I are celebrating three years of vegan eating, and we could not have done it without your first cookbook. I can't wait for the new recipes (and started salivating when I saw some of the titles).

      Thank you for continuing to provide inspiration and guidance! We really love what you do!!!!

      Can't wait to use this new cookbook ! Your first cookbook is a staple at my house. My family know your name because I make a lot of your recipes (cookbook+website), even if they're not vegan. They love your pancake and the lemon pie. My only question is if they will be signed copy of your cookbook that we can preorder ?

        That's wonderful! So happy you're excited. 🙂 As I don't sell the book myself, so I won't be able to send signed copies. But in the future when it is safe to do so, I will likely be doing book signings and speaking at events so I will sign books then 🙂
