It means more for us!Īnd I don't feel as if I'm a low-life cretin for using canned beans. (I leave out the cayenne pepper for her.) Of course, the husband simply refuses to even try it. That stuff is delicious! I've made it several times and we tear it up. So far, my daughter and I have decided that Spiced Chickpea Wraps with Tahini Dressing (page 32) is our absolute favorite. Speaking of pork chops, the Smoky Maple Marinade (page 77) is *so good*. Like, I couldn't find arugula at the grocery store, so I substituted a mixture of spinach and arugula bag o' salad. Or, cube those pork chops, or chicken, or beef, and throw it all *in* the fried rice. Mm, mm, good!)įry your pork chops and have some 5-Spice Fried Rice (page 68) on the side. For you avowed meat-eaters like myself, don't think of it as a vegan cookbook, crank back on the narrow minded, pigheaded-ness and think of it as a book of SIDE DISHES. I kind of started to not care about that part.īut then I said, "Screw it!" and bought four more.Īnyhow, here's the tough part. Which I find to be funny as H*ll, but other people could be offended. The *only* thing that kept me from giving more as gifts was the explicit language.
One of the many things I like about it is it doesn't come across with that self-righteous, holier-than-thou, stuck up, I'm-better-than-you-because-I'm-a-vegetarian-and-you're-a-murderer attitude. Hell! I just read through it because it was so entertaining! I love books, too.) When it arrived, I tried a few of the recipes, laughing through each one as I read them, and bought five more to give as Christmas gifts. ($14.61 for the hard back edition in October 2014. And chocolate.Īnyhow, I saw the trailer/ad for this cookbook, thought it was freakin' hilarious, and pre-ordered one. Unfortunately, I happen to like most of my own cooking. I don't cook for fun or because I like playing with food, I cook to eat. It's one of the few pleasures I have left. However, I rather enjoy eating (obviously). I've been cooking for a really long damn time (started back when my mother broke her back when I was about 10), and get sick of it. Check the snippy, dogmatic attitude at the door. I am a card-carrying, dyed-in-the-wool, affirmed and declared Non-Vegetarian. I am not trying to turn anyone into a vegan. Don't be like my husband and sneer at me, "It's not going to work."ĭon't be stupid. Thug Kitchen is a recipe book of vegan dishes. Despite him, I have tried to change it up over the years.ĭropped bacon grease *years* ago. I ask *him* what he'd like to have for dinner, and he invariably says, "Spaghetti" or "meatloaf." (How did *that* happen?)īeen married a long time, been cooking a lot longer and it gets boring, monotonous, tedious. I always liked it, and continued to cook the same way after I got married-to Mr. Things got better as us kids got older, and Mom expanded her repertoire by adding more herbs and spices, and somewhat better cuts of meat. I'm sure some of you know what I'm talking about. I'll spare you the details, but we ate kinda poor. When she could afford to buy butter, she'd use that. Growing up in a rural area, my Mom pretty much always used the basic seasonings: salt, pepper, margarine, and bacon grease. I s*** you not.įirst off, let me say I don't cook because it's fun and I enjoy it, I cook to eat. No more avoiding the produce corner of the supermarket. No more ketchup and pizza counting as vegetables.
