Hi all, I'm a pescetarian with big vegetarian leanings and have a niece who has very recently gone vegetarian. She's just told me that when she starts university later this year she's decided to go vegan.
She's an intelligent young lady, but I'm a bit concerned she doesn't have a good understanding of what it takes to be a vegan. I don't mean to sound patronising, but for instance in her vegetarian phase she doesn't realise that not all cheese is vegetarian. I'd really like to support her decision and would love to be able to buy her vegan cookbooks or the like so she can eat healthily while away from home. Does anyone have any recommendations? I'm compiling a number of my own recipes which are vegan and know I can get loads more from the recipe thread and the internet, but personal recommendations for books are always the best!
Thank you (hopefully) so much for your time!
