It’s been four years since my first book came out, and ten years since I started Bake and Destroy. I’ve had six jobs, three major hair style changes and more pet fish than I can possibly count in that time – but the one thing that’s been a constant is my husband, Tony Slater.
Not only is he one of the few people I can tolerate for more than the span of a lunch meeting, but he’s also an excellent cook and a supportive partner. A few of his recipes made it into Bake and Destroy: Good Food for Bad Vegans, and many more have made it onto the blog and my social media over the years.
There is truly no one on this entire floating rock I’d rather share a pizza, much less my life with than this guy and so it only made sense that we do a book together.
Most of these vegan recipes are meant to serve two – so shout out to single people, share with your bestie or give two servings to the person you love most – you. These are inspired by the dishes we make at home for the two of us while Teno eats his third veggie burger of the day because he’s eleven years old and completely impossible. Kids book coming next? Doubt it.
Recipes such as:
- We Make Quite a Pear Pancake(s)
- Barack and Michelle-o Salad
- Bonnie and Fried Chick’n
- Your Name is Tattooed on My Tart
- Sinking Ship: Rosewater and Jackfruit Cocktails
