“Despite her book’s imposing title, 32-year-old Vegan With a Vengeance: Over 150 Delicious, Cheap, Animal-Free Recipes That Rock author Isa Chandra Moskowitz is delightfully funny. A vegetarian since her teens, Moskowitz’s philosophy about food can be summed up by the words ‘cooking is fun.’ Her cookbook features recipes for everything from soup to pizza to tempeh bacon to cupcakes, with little stories interspersed about her introduction to punk rock, growing up in Brooklyn, and running her cable access show Post Punk Kitchen.”
