Hello friends and fellow animal lovers! As you know from my post on Friday the Boston Veg Food Fest was this weekend! I went to the festival this morning and had an amazing time! I got to see so many cool vendors, and sample some delicious food! The highlight of my day would have to have been getting to meet Dustin Harder, AKA The Vegan Roadie!Dustin Harder is the author of Epic Vegan and The Simply Vegan Cookbook. He is also the creator and host of The Vegan Roadie, a three-season web series that explores cities throughout North America (and eventually in Italy!) to find the best plant-based eats!
Epic Vegan is Dustin's newest cookbook. While The Simply Vegan Cookbook focused on easy vegan recipes that are fun to make and delicious to eat, Epic Vegan takes it a step up with it's more "choose-your-own-adventure" style approach to plant-based eating. His cookbook features all the foods you thought you would miss when going vegan. It's got crazy recipes such as Mac and Cheese Pretzel Bites, Pizza Burrito Supreme, Triple Decker Breakfast Sammy, Pumpkin Cream Cheese Latte Shake, Pad Thai Cupcakes and so much more! The recipes are fun, filled with creativity, and dare I say EPIC!
Today at Veg Fest Dustin did a demo of his Loaded Baked Potato Soup. Dustin's personality, humor, and passion for vegan cooking was infectious and the auditorium was frequently filled to the brim with laughter! He was informative, a fun performer and a FANTASTIC chef! The audience members had the pleasure of tasting a sample of the Loaded Baked Potato Soup and it was spectacular! After the demo we had the opportunity to meet Dustin and to get his cookbook signed by him. It was such a pleasure to meet him and I can't WAIT to try out his recipes!
