The Book Drunkard Literary Festival

We are so excited to host Sam this fall at Fig Kitchen and would love you to join us in feeding your cravings! At this intimate, four-course meal, we will be discussing food, cooking, and Sam’s inspiration for her recipes. This event include the full meal as well as a copy of Craving Vegan to make more of Sam’s recipes at home.

 

A late-night snack, a comforting weekend brunch, or a quick hit of something sweet—Craving Vegan has something to satisfy every craving you might have. Sam Turnbull, bestselling author of Fuss-Free Vegan and Fast Easy Cheap Vegan, shares 101 drool-worthy vegan dishes in her third cookbook, overflowing with plant-based comfort food that hits the spot. Within the pages of this stunning cookbook you’ll find:

  • Chapters divided by cravings: You’ll know where to turn when the need strikes: Eggy, Carby, Cheesy, Creamy, Crunchy, Spicy, Meaty, Chocolatey, and Sugary.
  • Sam’s signature style: Dishes are simple and creative—with flavor turned up to the max!
  • Recipes that hit the spot: The Potato-Lover Pierogies will satisfy that carby craving, while others, like the Crunch Wrap Superior, will cover (almost) all your cravings (carby, cheesy, crunchy, spicy, AND meaty).
  • Multi-craving comfort food: Stand-out recipes include Double-Potato Cheesy Gnocchi, Tofu Tikka Masala, Buttermilk Fried Oyster Mushrooms, and Almost Instant Chocolate Mousse.

 

In Craving Vegan, Sam pulls out all the stops and shares tricks you will turn to again and again to create epic vegan meals. We’re talking picture-perfect plant-based versions of Sunday morning eggs and gooey cheese, and even how to prepare the perfect vegan steak. The scrumptious recipes in Craving Vegan are proof that any dish you’re craving can be vegan—and satisfying and delicious too!

 

SAM TURNBULL is the creator of the brand and blog It Doesn’t Taste Like Chicken. A leader in the vegan community, Sam and her recipes have been featured on TV and radio, and in numerous magazines and newspapers. She is the author of two bestselling cookbooks, Fuss-Free Vegan and Fast Easy Cheap Vegan. Fast Easy Cheap Vegan is also the winner of a 2022 Taste Canada Award.
