About this event
The cookbook for this month is The Complete Plant-Based Cookbook by America’s Test Kitchen.
If you are curious about vegan cooking, this club is for you! Each month, participants make three recipes from popular cookbooks then share their reflections with the group. Novice to expert cooks are welcome, as are interested non-cooks. Registration for the online meeting is not required—get log-in information below.

Vegan Recipe Club General DetailsThe Vegan Recipe Club is for everyone—those curious about vegan cooking and those more experienced with it. The club explores plant-based recipes created by cooks of varying cultures and nationalities and cookbooks are suitable for the novice to experienced cook.
This club aims to feature recipes that are great tasting and support the health of participants. It’s a great way to explore great new recipes, work out issues in different recipes, and to build community with others interested in vegan cooking. Best of all, these meals also help the animals and the environment!
