From the bestselling authors of Dirty Gourmet: Food for Your Outdoor Adventures comes a brand new cookbook! The recipes in Dirty Gourmet Plant Power focus on vegan recipes with a global twist. In the spirit of inclusivity and accessibility, the authors have included snacks and meals that work great for play dates at the local park or picnics on the beach, as well as food-fuel for urban and day hikes and on longer wilderness outings. With details on how to do your own dehydrating—though with no shaming for buying pre-dehydrated goods—and helpful tips about equipment and basics to keep on hand, Dirty Gourmet Plant Power will have you enjoying scrumptious recipes like White Bean and Artichoke Pressed Sandwiches, Tahini Soba Noodles, and Pumpkin Pecan Pie Iron Waffles wherever you head outside!
Founded by the authors nearly 15 years ago, Dirty Gourmet sees food as fundamental to outdoor education. Their outdoor cooking blog, based on their own adventures and recipes, informs their experiential catered campouts, outdoor food-product testing, and outdoor cooking workshops. Aimee, Emily, and Mai-Yan aim to encourage both new and experienced outdoor enthusiasts to make food an inspirational part of any outing—nourishing, comforting, and delicious, no matter your nutritional needs, skill level, or destination.
