Southern Girl Meets Vegetarian Boy

Damaris Phillips, Food Network Star winner and host of "Southern at Heart," shares 100 soul-satisfying, vegetarian-friendly Southern recipes

Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Southern Girl Meets Vegetarian Boy by Damaris Phillips explores the delightful fusion of Southern cuisine with ethical vegetarianism. Phillips, a Southern chef, grew up in a world where greens were lovingly prepared with pork, and fried chicken was a Sunday staple. However, her journey led her to transform these beloved dishes to suit a vegetarian lifestyle.

In Southern Girl Meets Vegetarian Boy, Phillips shares 100 recipes reflecting the essence of the modern Southern kitchen. These recipes retain all the historic comfort and flavour of traditional Southern food but can now be savoured by both vegetarians and meat-lovers alike.

The book includes Phillips's cherished entrees from her childhood, thoughtfully adapted to offer both meat and meatless options. For instance, Chicken Fried Steak is creatively reimagined as Chicken Fried Seitan Steak, and Loaded Potato and Bacon Soup becomes Loaded Potato and Facon Soup.

Phillips also revamps classic Southern side dishes by eliminating meat, introducing international spices, and updating cooking techniques. The cookbook culminates in a collection of soul-satisfying, irresistible desserts that effortlessly bridge the gap between meat-eaters and vegetarians.

This culinary collection showcases how Southern food can be enjoyed by everyone, no matter where they are on their culinary journey.
