I have every one of your books and love everything I have cooked/baked/whatever. I don’t know if I have played favourites with the recipes with pics but that’s probably the case. Yikes. I also wanted to pass along that I am an omnivore (who lives with carnivores!) and make all your recipes with what I have from on hand like plain Greek yoghurt or butter from cows (don’t hate me) but all the recipes always work and are super tasty so I hope your audience includes omnivores who like vegetables and awesome recipes as it’s a great way to eat better with less meat. The carnivores in the house enjoy everything too! And reading the recipes is always effing fun for me!

I love this. I’ve always said that I want to create good food that happens to be vegan. My whole goal with this project has to get more omnivores comfortable eating differently and you’re the proof it’s working!! I’d rather have 10,000 people eat vegan and vegetarian most of the time than make 1 person vegan. It ultimately helps the planet and animals more than insisting on perfection ❤️

Fellow omnivore here who prefers to eat mostly plant based. I also use all of the books regularly and can’t wait for the new one.

Wanted to also add that, while I’ve never called myself it out loud, I’m an omnivore who also cooks Bad Manners recipes the same way you just stated. It’s typically the dairy swaps, I’m just not crazy about any vegan dairy product I’ve ever tried, I don’t love tofu/seitan, and I’m a total nooch hater. However, I prioritize vegan/veg/healthy cooking as much as possible, and these books and community have helped me do that so much. You’re not alone!

Thanks for doing this series! I know I gloss over recipes that don't have photos (confession: looking at the number of photos in a cookbook is half of how I decide if it's worth spending more time with). But I'm definitely making a Note to Self to check out these flatbreads (and the hash browns from last week) once I have the new book. Looking forward to more of these highlights!

I’m super guilty of skipping recipes with no photo, so I really appreciate this series!

These look sooo good, def making later this week when I pick up some herbs.

I do not know which recipe to start with. SOOooooo... much to choose from. (And for the record.... this is a good thing.) I am going to have to spend a few weeks soaking in the cooking tips and trying out things.

To my fellow Canadians: You can order the hardcover of Heidi Swanson’s “Super Natural Cooking” from Indigo’s website for $10 (bargain clearance) if you want to try out one of Michelle’s recommendations (...after you’ve ordered Hungry as Hell, of course).

I’m going to feel so fancy when I make this flatbread, like I do when I make any of your recipes. Thanks for this! Since I’m not actually fancy…if I can’t get fresh herbs, what do you recommend? If using dry herbs, how much?

Dried herbs are always great! The standard substitute guideline is 1 teaspoon of dried herbs for every 1 tablespoon of fresh you would have used. That 1:3 ratio should keep the flavors similar and you’ll be good to go

I love this series! It’s inspiring me to go find other recipes in my other cookbooks that were overlooked due to no photo. These flatbreads sound incredible and I can’t wait for the new cookbook to drop!
