“Charity is taking a practical approach to a plant-based diet. . . . She provides support and encouragement as she guides you through this exploration.”—Venus Williams, from the foreword
Whether you’re new to plant-based eating or already a convert, when you cook vegan with Charity Morgan, private chef to elite athletes and rock stars, you may be leaving out the meat, dairy, and eggs, but you won’t be missing out on the flavor and indulgence of all your favorite comfort foods.
In her first cookbook, Charity lays out a plan for anyone who wants to eat less meat—whether they are looking to go completely vegan or just be a little bit more meat-free. Pulling inspiration from her Puerto Rican and Creole heritage as well as from the American South, where she lives with her family, Charity’s recipes are full of flavor. Think Smoky Jambalaya; hearty Jerk-Spiced Lentils with Coconut Rice & Mango Salsa; Jalapeño-Bae’con Corn Cakes with Chili-Lime Maple Syrup; and a molten, decadent Salted Caramel Apple Crisp.
Unbelievably Vegan offers more than 100 recipes for living a meat-free life without giving up your favorite comfort foods. Charity guides readers on how to use oyster mushrooms to stand in for chicken and how to spice walnuts to taste like chorizo! She proves that vegan food can be fun, filling, healthy, and above all else unbelievably delicious.

Morgan, a private chef to celebrities, shares her knowledge and passion for plant-based meals in this entertaining cookbook. The author details her transition to a vegan diet alongside her husband, former NFL linebacker Derrick Morgan, and how her home-cooked meals caught the attention of his teammates. Morgan eventually began delivering meals for nearly two dozen football players. She is enthusiastic about helping readers begin incorporating plant-based meals and excels at sharing fundamentals and strategies. Recipes are heavily inspired by her Puerto Rican and Creole background, with influences from other global cuisines. There are creative vegan twists on American classics (ranch dressing; cheesecake) and flavor-forward standouts (walnut chorizo; Caribbean ceviche; Grandma Duplechan's Creole Gumbo). Morgan nods to football with game-day recipes (Chili con Chili; Lemon-Pepper Wingz). Morgan's distinctive recipes will appeal to readers versed in vegan cooking, but the approachability and focus on fundamentals also make this a great book for those curious about plant-based cooking. Readers interested in further exploring a plant-based diet may enjoy Super Easy Plant-Based Cookbook, by Kathy A. Davis. VERDICT A lively book, ideal for newcomers to plant-based cooking.--Kate Bellody
