New from bestselling authors Imar Hutchins and Dawn Marie Daniels comes The Vegetarian Soul Food Cookbook: A Wonderful Medley of Vegetarian, Vegan &amp; Raw Recipes Inspired by the Southern Tradition. Written not only for Vegetarians but really for anyone that is interested in making classic American Soul Food without losing the flavor of your grandmother’s Sunday dinner, but with a new and healthier spin. No more missing out on good hearty Southern foods because everything is cooked with meat, in meat or is meat! Here’s a way to introduce your family and friends to vegetarian twists on their favorite dishes. 
Hutchins and Daniels break new ground with vegan versions of many soul food standards including Barbecue Ribs, Cheesy Grits, Macaroni &amp; “Cheese” and Banana pudding. They also push the envelope with raw versions of everything from lasagna to sweet potato pie, and peach cobbler. 
The Vegetarian Soul Food Cookbook was designed with the novice cook in my mind with easy to follow recipes that are divided by course and by both raw and cooked variations. 
In addition to over 150 never before published vegetarian, vegan and raw recipes, The Vegetarian Soul Food Cookbook also includes: 
* Meal planners for those hard to create holiday menus * Guides for converting your favorite recipes to meatless alternatives * Unique new raw food recipes for everything from “fried” green tomatoes to gingerbread. * Instructional diagrams for making raw pie crust * A food product index for finding the many ingredients mentioned as easy as 1-2-3! * and much, much, more! 
Hutchins and Daniels wrote The Vegetarian Soul Food Cookbook as a result of their own frustration with so-called “vegetarian” cookbooks that contained recipes that were fish-based or contained dairy and animal products that were not consistent with a plant based diet. They hope to acquaint you with the health benefits, history and flavor of this delicious cuisine. With recipes for everything from entrees and side dishes to breads and desserts, you will see the versatility of vegetarian soul food. Vegetarian cuisine isn’t just for vegetarians any more!
