More Praise for Brian L. Patton and
The Sexy Vegan Cookbook
“One of the most important actions we can take to protect the environment is adopting a plant-based diet, and
The Sexy Vegan Cookbook
makes that task easier than ever. Armed with creative faux meats and a lighthearted approach, Brian Patton takes the daunting endeavor of eating healthily, ethically, and environmentally consciously and makes it an easy (and incredibly delicious) pill to swallow. Reserve a spot on your bookshelf for this one. It’s a must-have!”
— Ed Begley, Jr., actor, activist, and author of
Living Like Ed: A Guide to the Eco-Friendly Life
“In these pages, chef Brian Patton shows you that veganism can be sexy and delicious.”
— Rod Rotondi, author of
Raw Food for Real People
“In his videos, Brian Patton has a unique blend of talents, genuine charisma, and an ardent streak of irreverence that is most refreshing. [He is] very successful in making veganism look practical and accessible instead of ‘fluffy’ or esoteric. Stick with it! I can feel Alton Brown shaking in his calfskin wingtips.”
— Chris D., a viewer in the Midwest
