Bake and Destroy: Good Food for Bad Vegans

Natalie has been described as "Martha Stewart meets Iron Maiden," taking vegan cooking to places it has never been before.

Influenced by slasher films, pro-wrestling, punk rock and heavy metal, her quirky-yet-delicious comfort foods are a refreshing take on vegan eating with award-winning flavors. Along the way, her off-color humor, irreverent rants and density of pop-culture references will make you laugh out loud.

Inside this high-energy cookbook you'll find recipes for Bike Messenger Brownies - inspired by the espresso-infused chai latte these speed demons use to fuel up; and Crouching Cornbread, Hidden Broccoli - Natalie's sneaky way of getting her son to eat vegetables. Other creations include the Grilled Mac 'n' Cheez Sandwich, Taco Lasagna, Chick-O Cheesecake, and her Shepherd's Pie Pizza, about which she writes, "Some people were born to rock n' roll. Others were born to ride. I was born to put mashed potatoes on pizza."

Bake and Destroy was named one of the most anticipated cookbooks of the year by VegNews.
