This cookbook is going to make a lot of vegans really happy. It's filled with gorgeous color photos (more than half the recipes have photos) and a variety of vegan dishes that are designed to be fairly quick and easy. I don't know that I'd consider them super quick and easy, but for homemade from-scratch, I suppose they are. It's also designed to be very friendly for those who can't do gluten, which I appreciate. The two reasons that I personally can't use the cookbook are firstly that it doesn't contain nutritional information for the recipes and I need to track things like fiber, protein, fat, calories, etc. for our family, and secondly that the recipes tend towards high carb and low protein. That's great when you're young but as we age we need more protein (believe me, I was plenty snarky when people asked me where I got my protein in my young vegan days). I actively seek out recipes that are high in healthy fats, healthy protein and fiber these days. There are lots of recipes that do seem healthy and most of the recipes do seem great about fiber, but there is a lot of sugar even in the savory recipes (often in the form of sweeteners like agave) and most of the recipes seem very low in protein other than obvious ones like tofu dishes. Young me would have loved this cookbook though. :)

I read a temporary digital ARC of this book for review.

I will start by saying I am not vegan, but I'm always looking for meals to make when I have vegan friends over, I do try to cook less meat for my family, including a couple of vegetarian meals each week, and I'm a big fan of tasty veggy dishes. So I was very interested in that book, though I have no opinion on its nutritional value, I know nothing about building healthy vegan meals with all the elements you need as I rely on animal protein for our family's intake.
Now that done. What did I think?
The book is beautiful with very appetising pictures of the recipes, it's vibrant and full of spices and quite a bit of sweet. There are a few dishes I totally want to try, like the all-in-one breakfast oven scrambled tofu and potatoes, the pad thai burger (though it is taking a big shortcut suggesting a vegan patty), the pineapple and basil sorbet.
I'm not super fond of sweet/savoury recipes so quite a few didn't appeal to me very much, but that's very personal and many people don't mind pineapple or apples in their salads, or maple sirup in their sauces.
The recipes are easy and that is good but there might not be as much in this book for me as I first hoped.
Added bonus - I found it very cute that they included a vegan dog biscuit recipe.

Lovely recipes with great pictures to go with them. I do wish these books would have pictures of every dish though, somehow it is really important to me. I can see myself trying several of these recipes. The book looks very inviting, and I enjoy the colourful and eye-catching layout. The recipes are clear, to the point, and easy to follow.

This is such an awesome cookbook. The first thing I noticed is that the author's personality clearly comes through in his writing - his tone is fun and you can tell that he not only loves food and cooking, but has a passion for sharing easy to make recipes.

It's clear that this isn't just a cookbook for vegans, but can be used by anyone who wants to incorporate more plant-based recipes into their diet. The ingredient lists are full of ingredients that I could find at any supermarket, without having to travel around to a bunch of specialty stores or order things online. I especially liked that some of the recipes incorporated plant-based protein substitutes, which I've used and enjoyed for the most part.

Nearly all of the recipes have gorgeous pictures that leaped off the page. They look delicious and made me want to try so many of these recipes. I'm looking forward to trying a lot of them, and there is a great selection to choose from. From breakfast to dessert, with everything in between, including things that I'd be able to bring to a social gathering without any flak, I bookmarked quite a few of these recipes to try out in my own kitchen.

This is one cookbook that I'd definitely recommend whether you are vegan or not!

Great collection of diverse vegan recipes. If you're looking to try to cut back on animal products or making a complete switch, this is a great intro cookbook. Can't wait to try more of these recipes.

What a great vegan vookbook! It has a ton of great looking recipes and I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE the meal prep suggestions. It even includes a recipe for your pupper called Mr. Benson's Puppy Bites. I am a bit of a lazy cook and some of the recipes had a few too many ingredients, but I guess that's what makes a flavorful dish. I do wish it had nutritional info however.

Epic Vegan Quick and Easy is a simple and very accessible recipe book for anyone wanting to include vegan meals in their diet without the fuss. There is a very good variety of recipes and ingredients, and a lot of extra information is included such as 'gluten free'. I liked the mouth watering pictures that were included but it would have been so much better if there was picture for every recipe. Overall a very good and inspiring simple recipe book.

While this book had some really great vegan recipes, there were quite a few that were kinda high in sugar so this wasn't as much of a healthy recipe book as it was a non-meat book. That being said, there were some really great ideas in this book for any diet with my favorite to try being One-Sheet BBQ Mushroom Jack N Peaches sandwiches.

I’m not a vegan. I don’t plan on becoming a vegan. I do plan on incorporating more plant based meals in to my families diet. That being said I think even a meat eater and vegetarian will love this cookbook. My absolute favorite part is in the beginning the author gives you combos for meal ideas. The recipes look incredible and easy to follow.

SImple recipes for the person new to a plant-based diet. ALl ingredients are readily found and cooking will take minimal effort.

Epic Vegan Quick and Easy by Dustin Harder is a cookbook that makes me think I could actually go full on vegan! It’s filled with delicious sounding recipes that seem simple to make with easy to access ingredients. There are gorgeous pictures to go with the recipes and everything you could want is covered. I will definitely be adding a physical copy of this one to my cookbook shelf!

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group for the opportunity to read this book for an honest review.

A lot of great looking dishes that seem relatively easy to make. There isn't many ingredients that I wouldn't already have in/be able to get my hands on easily and the instructions are nice and clear. The photography is also stunning which always makes me want to try that food. Definitely some meals in there that I will be trying asap.

I do love a cookbook which centres around one pot meals! No fuss, no extra washing up and with ingredients that are accessible to all. No frills cooking that delivers incredible and tasty food is something that all cookbooks should aspire to and the Epic Vegan by Dustin Harder definitely achieved this.

I think there can be a certain amount of stigma with vegan cooking; that it might be difficult with weird ingredients and not that good to eat. It’s so wrong! Ive been vegan for over 4 years, I know just what delicious foods can be made in the kitchen that don’t need animal products or derivatives and it’s books like these that given vegan food a good name!

I particularly loved the Seitan Tikka Masala, the Pad Thai recipe and the no bake cookies (amongst many others) as there’s just so many fab recipes in here.

Would be a definite recommended cookbook to have on every vegan (and non vegan) shelf in their kitchen.

Eye catching cover and title, and even though I’m not vegan I love vegan meals so this was a super fun cookbook to take a peek at.

What did I like? Gorgeous cookbook with some really beautiful pictures! I’m a meatless monday fanatic and I’m always on the lookout for some vegan type recipes to enjoy and was not disappointed. Of course it would have been nice for all the recipes to have a picture. The book also includes some handy kitchen staples, and some basic meal prep. Handy tool and lovely book.

Would I recommend or buy? Epic vegan will be a great book for any vegan food lover! Loved the recipes and definitely bookmarked s few. I would recommend and would love a personal paperback... wish listing it! Five stars!

I received a complimentary ecopy to read and voluntarily left a review!

I am not a vegan and this cookbook looks great! I like the layout especially with the recipe titles in the table of contents in the beginning so it’s easy to find what you’re looking for. Some of these recipes look delicious!

Thank you to Quarto Publishing for the eARC opportunity! I was granted galley access via NetGalley. My thoughts are my own and my review is honest.

I'd like to start my review by admitting a couple of things. First of all, I rarely review cookbooks. Second, I'm not vegan. So why did I request this one? I've wanted to go more plant-based for years and used to observe a more vegetarian lifestyle while living in my home province of British Columbia, but ever since moving to the land of 5 vegetables and lots of wild meat (Newfoundland) it's been a struggle. Most of the produce in the grocery stores is overpriced, imported, and already starting to wilt, discolour, or spoil. I can't remember the last time we bought broccoli that isn't frozen, and if you want kale from the grocery store nearest me you're going to have to pick it out of a prepared deli salad (which is probably covered with soggy feta.)

So I started flipping through this book wondering if anything that caught my eye would even be possible with local grocery offerings. To my surprise, yes! Most if not all of the favourite ingredients discussed at the beginning are definitely available at my local store. And the recipes? They look delicious, easy, and quick! So many of the recipes in this book will appeal to my little family, and I can't wait to put them into the rotation. Is this a great well-rounded book for vegan households? I honestly don't know. Is this a great resource for households who want to introduce or expand plant-based dishes into their usual rotation? 100% yes!

My one wish for this book is a conversion section. Things like flax meal in used to do the job traditionally done by egg are discussed, which immediately had me thinking I could try such things with egg-using recipes I already know, but this book doesn't tell me how much flax meal to use to replace 1 egg, 2 eggs, etc. in an existing recipe. I'm sure this information is online, but this could very well be the first vegan or plant-based book someone new to the lifestyle picks up, and it would be so much easier to have conversion tips included.

The recipes in this book look amazing. Reading through them they all seem pretty straight forward and simple. I can’t wait to try some.

The layout is very easy to follow. I love the amount of pictures of recipes included. The organization and diversity of recipes is excellent. My only criticism is I wish it included nutritional information for each recipe.

Epic Vegan Quick and Easy contains an array of recipes for meals and desserts.

This book was excellent. The food photography was beautiful, and I especially loved the sections on meal prep, the tips beside recipes, and the variety of ideas included. The approach that this book took in not just being a good selection of recipes but a good collection of recipes for anyone to enjoy! I think these recipes sound so delicious anyone would be happy to give them a try.

Thank you to the publisher and to NetGalley for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Wonderful easy and approachable recipes for the vegan home cook. Loved the sheet pan recipes and a pub cheese made with saurkraut? I'm in.
The book was well-organized and the photography is brilliant.
