So my Director/BFF gave me this awesome cook book for Christmas last night. It's called Thug Kitchen: Eat Like You Give A *kitten*.

Has anyone ever used this cook book? I know it's fairly new but I'm excited to try it. It doesn't use meat in any of it's recipes and it uses humor so it's not a boring cook book (Not that it really matters).

    The plant based recipes are good.

    I got it for Christmas. So far Ive cooked 6 recipes, and they have all been delicious. The hot wings style cauliflower was a real surprise winner. I'm an omnivore, but I enjoy any meal that is delicious. You should definitely get this book.

    What self respecting thug would eat a vegan diet. The author is a poser.

    I'm a vegetarian, but this philosophy seems to scream "trying to hard to make being a vegetarian cool!". I don't need it to be hip or cool. I eat that way by choice. However, the recipes may be good. Not discrediting that.

    Haven't read the book - but the website is (or was before the booK) incredible.

    On second thought, I don't want to start a war. It's on YouTube. :)

    I also got it for Xmas! It is hysterically written. Haven't had a chance to make any recipes yet, but I'm really excited about some of them.

    I am in no way a vegan. I love my chicken, not so much red meat though. I don't think they are trying too hard to make it cool, I think they are just trying to be funny and make cooking fun. Never in my life have I followed a recipe until I bought this book.

    It spoke to my inner voice. I think in curse words. It read in curse words. Bless you, Thug Kitchen. Bless you. Lol
