Two vegans in a world of quinoa and kale that refuse to go with the grain.

Who says one must give up an insatiable need for comfort food just to eat better, to save animals and the planet? The Edgy Veg, the YouTube sensation (200,000 subscribers and counting, not to mention 630,000+ views per month) are on a culinary journey to revolutionize vegan food as we know it.

Tired of traditional plant-based diets filled with salads and smoothies that just feels, well, tired, Candice and James set out on a culinary mission to re-purpose familiar favorites, by recreating childhood and adult cravings for folks with sophisticated palettes and food-nerd obsessions. Every single recipe can be enjoyed by vegans, vegetarians and omnivores alike - they're all tested by James Aita, a former meat and cheese loving guy, and also tirelessly tested on friends and family. These dishes taste fabulous.

The Edgy Veg has 100 amazing recipes to meet and exceed the need for stick-to-your-ribs/don't even miss the meat, comfort dishes. Those take-out pangs will be banished once and for all with Perfectly Pleasing Pesto Pizza. With General Tso's Chicken or Buffalo Cauliflower Wings, entertaining for even the most hard-core carnivores is a snap. One taste of Spaghetti and Neat Balls, Bro, or Infamous Edgy Veg Fried Chicken or The Mac Daddy will easily convince all.

To quench a thirst or sweet tooth, Mean Green Ginger Machine, Grade Eh Caesar and swoon-worthy Death by Chocolate Mousse is perfect.

Goodbye to dairy, milk, eggs and tired tofu and hello to tasty tacos, perfect pizza and deluxe burgers. Cake, burgers and fries are here too!

Industry Reviews
Hutchings, host of the YouTube channel The Edgy Veg, shares her carnivore-friendly approach to eating vegan in this charming and instructive cookbook. Rather than focusing on complicated recipes, Hutchings takes simple approaches to creating vegan versions of classic meat-based dishes, including French onion soup, biscuits and gravy, spaghetti and meatballs, fried chicken, and fish and chips. There are also vegan takes on the Taco Bell Crunch Wrap Supreme, the Chick-Fil-A sandwich, and the Big Mac. Hutchings's recipes are as pared-down as possible, and most ingredients are easily sourced...This light-hearted and encouraging cookbook is a welcome surprise.-- "Publishers Weekly" (11/22/2017 12:00:00 AM)
Vegan cooking that even a carnivore would love? That's the premise behind Candice Hutchings' book, a spinoff of (her) popular blog and YouTube series. With 138 recipes, from buffalo cauliflower wings to matcha ice cream, cheese fondue to a meatless chicken sandwich inspired by Chick-Fil-A, this book demonstrates the possibilities of a vegan diet.--Maryam Siddiqi "Globe and Mail " (9/17/2017 12:00:00 AM)
You're following a recipe online, and you need to scroll or the screen goes black. Your hands are covered in flour, the pot is boiling too quickly, and there's no time to wash your hands. Ah!!! Thankfully, YouTube recipe curator Candice Hutchings (aka, The Edgy Veg) released her first cookbook so you don't have to worry about messing up your computer keys. Known for veganizing animal-based comfort foods such as Crunchy Taco Wrap Supreme, Drunken Fish and Chips, and Sriracha Beer Waffles, Hutchings' recipes require some preparation time and a solid list of ingredients, but (as we've discovered) the wait is worth the work.--Tanya Flin "VegNews" (12/17/2017 12:00:00 AM)
