Dominick Thompson comes from the West Chicago neighborhood infamously known as "Chi-raq." He grew up with a strong, no-nonsense mom, yet he had a bloodline to the Vice Lords, a gang with ties to the Black power movement of the 1960s, but that later catalyzed the drug trade when Dom was growing up in the 1980s. Its promise of connection and cash were irresistible to many young men, including Dom. One summer, he agreed to a last hustle. It was a sting, and Dom went to federal prison.
It was in his darkest hour there that he had the revelation that brings us Eat What Elephants Eat--to heal his body and soul he vowed never again to harm another sentient being. Like the peaceful African giants, he would start by eating only plants. The gentle diet made Dom strong again in every way. And it can do the same for you.
At the heart of Eat What Elephants Eat are eighty simple vegan recipes and three step-by-step blueprints and meal plans for transitioning to a plant-based lifestyle that anyone can follow. Dom answers questions all vegan curious people ask: How do I stay focused? What are the health benefits? Is it expensive? (No ) What about protein? (Yes Lots ) And, what are some great-tasting recipes?
Recipes in Eat What Elephants Eat include:
-Breakfast: Saturday Morning Nostalgia Pancakes, The "Duluth" Omelet, Really Good Tofu Scramble
-Soups and Bowls: Watermelon Gazpacho, Mushroom Ramen Noodle Bowl, Buffalo Cauliflower "Chicken" Wings Bowl
-Small Plates, Sandwiches, and Burgers: Sweet Corn n' Jalapeno Fritters, Mega Tofu BLT, Lentil Sloppy Joes
-Mains: Spaghetti n' Beet Balls, Almond Crusted Tofu "Salmon", Jackfruit Tacos with Mango-Corn Salsa and Avocado "Cream"
-Dessert: Lemon Loaf with Lemon Icing, Brownies in a "Jiffy", Roasted Stone Fruit with Sweet Cashew Cream
Gentle and practical, Dom connects the dots among the social and environmental perils of the industrial food system--our health. With humor and understanding, he delivers a no-fuss plan that guides anyone to embrace veganism.
