Delicious Recipes for Holiday Gatherings: Vegan Soul Kitchen

As is obvious from previous posts, I have a giant cookbook crush on Vegan Soul Kitchen by Bryant Terry. Please run fast to your nearest store or library and get this book!

I bought these Choplets and decided to give them a go with some yummy vegan soul sides. Verdict on the choplets: meh. They were really dense, but tasted pretty good. Brad didn't like them, citing the considerable rubbery-ness. I breaded and cooked them in a pan. They were so-so as is, but tasted great chopped up in a nice vegetable soup after the fact.


From Vegan Soul Kitchen I made these cumin-spiced mashed potatoes. Oh so good! These are spicy and hearty and deeeelicious!


Easy gravy from Hot Damn & Hell Yeah!


A nice looking, and tasting plate if I may say so. I added in some spicy smothered cabbage from VSK as well. Vegan Soul Kitchen is FULL of great dishes that would be really easy and impressive for the holidays. Make one for a family gathering or potluck and get ready for raves!

I've never heard of choplets. Am I seeing a can? I'm not too good about canned stuff besides beans and pumpkin puree. The taters look really good.
