For almost-vegans who need a pushand omnivores with a wealth of reasons not to go vegana mouthwatering cookbook that overturns every excuse!
I couldnt live without cheese. Tofu doesnt taste like anything. You cant bake without butter or eggs. These statements have two things in common: 1) Theyre kneejerk excuses to avoid cooking and eating vegan food. 2) Theyre totally wrong! But convincing a veggiephobe takes more than wordsit takes proof. In But I Could Never Go Vegan!, rising star Kristy Turner good-humoredly counters every possible omnivores dilemmawith vegan recipes whose appeal cannot be denied. Each chapter tackles a new excuse not to go vegan: Think its all rabbit food? The BBQ Bacon Burger proves its not. Dont want to give up chocolate, ice cream, or pizza? Then dont! Enjoy Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse Tart, Dulce de Leche Ice Cream, or Roasted Garlic White Pizza with Macadamia Ricotta. Throughout, full-page photographs show just how inviting vegan cuisine can be, and Turners warm tone and easy-to-follow recipes keep readers tuned in. No need to nagthe food says it all. A self-described former die-hard cheese nerd, KRISTY TURNER is now the writer, recipe developer, and food stylist behind the vegan food blog Keepin It Kind, vegan legend Isa Chandra Moskowitzs favorite blog of 2012. Once a professional fromagier and mutterer of the words, I could never be vegan, Kristy now loves her compassionate lifestyle and works with her photographer husband, Chris, to make veganism accessible, fun, and delicious for everyone. She lives in Los Angeles, CA.

Citrus-Herb Roasted Beets with Macadamia Ricotta

SERVES 3 TO 4

for the macadamia ricotta

1 cup raw macadamia nuts, soaked in warm water for 1 hour, water reserved 2 tablespoons lemon juice 4 teaspoons reserved soaking water teaspoon sea salt teaspoon white miso

for the citrus-herb roasted beets

olive oil spray 4 large red beets (5 to 6 if they are smaller), peeled and sliced into inch medallions cup fresh orange juice 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar 1 tablespoon olive oil 1 tablespoon maple syrup 1 tablespoon fresh chopped thyme 1 tablespoon fresh chopped rosemary 1 teaspoon orange zest salt and pepper to taste orange slices for garnish, optional

ou may not realize this, but beets were meant to be roasted with orange juice and paired with a creamy, tangy cheese. But not just any cheese. This macadamia ricotta. Its true. I love using macadamia nuts for cheese because their mellow, buttery avor makes for the richest of creamy cheeses. The avors of this cheese are so subtle that the avors of whatever its paired with really shine. What you will remember about that dish, though, is the macadamia ricotta. Its perfect for salads, sandwiches, creamy sauces, or just eating straight out of the food processor.

for the macadamia ricotta

1.
Combine all of the ingredients in a food processor. Process until a smooth ball forms. Taste and add more salt if necessary. Store in an airtight container until ready to use.

2. 3.
Preheat the oven to 450F. Lightly spray a 9 x 13-inch baking Place the beet medallions into the dish. Add the orange juice, dish with olive oil spray. apple cider vinegar, olive oil, maple syrup, thyme, rosemary, orange zest, salt, and pepper. Toss the beets to fully coat. It is okay if they overlap. Bake in the oven for 30 minutes, ipping them once to ensure even cooking. Once they are easily pierced with a fork, remove the pan from oven.

4.

Lay the beet slices out on a large serving plate or serve indi-

vidual portions. Crumble the macadamia ricotta over them and garnish with orange slices. Serve immediately.

Animal Crackers

MAKES ABOUT 50 COOKIES

he animal crackers I remember came in a box with a ribbon handle, designed for young children to be able to carry around. My older sister would usually end up with most of the cookies in her

box by the end of the day, through a series of strategic trades. Nostalgia aside, theres no reason why these cookies need to be saved for the kids and theres no reason why they cant be formed into any shape you choose. Take a bite of one of these cookies and you just might taste a lion or a bear.
98 grams Pastry Flour Blend (page 000) (about cup) 28 grams gluten-free oat our (about cup) teaspoon xanthan gum cup Sucanat teaspoon baking powder teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons shortening (see page 000) 1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar 1 teaspoons Vanilla Extract (page 000) 2 tablespoons water, cold

5.

Roll the dough between two pieces of parchment paper, about 3/8-inch thick. Remove the top layer of parchment and use cookie cutters to create desired shapes.

6.

Remove excess dough, roll it out again, and create additional cookies, until all of the dough is used. Arrange the cookies on the lined baking sheet.

7.

Bake at 375F for 9-10 minutes until the tops are golden. Let the cookies cool on the baking sheet for 5 minutes and then move them to a cooling rack.

1. 2. 3.

Preheat the oven to 375F. Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper. Combine the flours, xanthan gum, sugar, baking powder, and salt in a large mixing bowl. Cut the shortening into tablespoon-sized pieces and lay them on top of the flour. Use a pastry cutter (see page 000), a pastry fork, or your hands to work the shortening into the flour. Continue working for 3-4 minutes until a crumbly mixture forms.

FREEZING:

Baked cookies can be frozen in a plastic bag or an airtight container for up to 3 months. Thaw at room temperature. Cookie dough (prepared through step 4) can be frozen, wrapped tightly in plastic, for up to 6 months. Thaw in the refrigerator and bring it to room temperature before forming cookies and baking.

4.

Add the vinegar, vanilla, and 1 tablespoon of water. Work the liquids into the dough. Add up to 1 tablespoon more cold water (1/2 tablespoon at a time), as needed, until the dough forms. (See page 000 for more on forming cookie dough.)
