While you won’t find any of the Slutty Vegan burgers in Cole’s forthcoming cookbook, Eat Plants, B*tch, you will find easy-to-cook vegan recipes, including Jamaican dishes, tapas and southern comfort food.

“I didn’t want to create a cookbook for vegans. Vegans already figured it out. We already know what to cook," the new author said. "I wanted to make a vegan cookbook for the meat eater and the person who is not so much interested in going vegan, but just wants some really good food and is a foodie.”

She’s said she’s most excited about a recipe created by Hayes, a Philadelphia native who is the owner of Atlanta’s Big Dave’s Cheesesteaks.

“So, my boyfriend made a vegan cheesesteak eggroll,” she said. “When I tell you that thing is so good, and I see why people go crazy about his food in the meat space. He was basically able to recreate it for us and that’s one of my favorite recipes in the cookbook.”

There are other chef contributions in the featured recipes. It’s also a beginner’s level cookbook since Cole herself is admittedly just a foodie.

“Contrary to popular belief, I am not a chef,” she said. “I just love to cook and I have no formal training, so these recipes and the contributing recipes are very easy, anybody can make them.”
