The Best Veggie Burgers on the Planet, revised and updated by Joni Marie Newman
More than 100 plant-based recipes for vegan burgers, fries and more
Vegetarianism and Veganism is not new to me. Living overseas where commercial convenience foods found in the USA are not easily found it does make the
When I saw this book I thought, “Hooray! I will find recipes I can make easily.” and that is not exactly true as some of those items mentioned above that are not easily found are listed in many of the recipes in this book. That said, I did get a LOT of fun ideas for enhancing the veggie burgers I currently make and look forward to using some of those ideas in the near future. I may ask my daughter to pick this book up for me before she comes next time to visit so I can have a hands-on copy near at hand.
What I liked:
* The photographs
* The way the chapters are set up and what is included in them
* The variety of flavor options
* The allergy indicator icons for every recipe
* The introduction to each recipe
* The “so vegan” comment at the bottom of each recipe
* The notes and recipes for homemade or store bought items like mayonnaise
* The addition of bread recipes
* The ideas I came away with
What I wished for:
* A basic recipe to play with that does not require items I can’t find locally (liquid smoke, nutritional yeast, tempeh, etc)
Overall I believe this is a book I would like to have in my cookbook library and I know that if I ever return to the USA to live I would pick up a copy to use in my home.
Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing for the ARC – This is my honest review.

lifestyle somewhat more challenging. Only in the last few years have I found vital wheat gluten, TVP is relatively new, tofu options are limited and though the “health food” options are on the rise they are still limited by Western standards. That said, the produce found in Lebanon is phenomenal year round and many fast foods are vegan or easily vegan-ized. When I saw this book I thought, “Hooray!
