“So often, I think that the stories that are told are from young, privileged white kids. Part of my goal is to shed light on other communities that haven’t had much of a voice. To just say that fixing food is going to help resolve issues in these communities — it’s not looking at the bigger picture. If we do have access to healthful foods, that would address a lot of other issues.”

—Bryant Terry, during an interview promoting his latest cookbook, The Inspired Vegan. With evocative chapter titles such as “Freedom Fare,” “Detroit Harvest,” and “Winter in Hong Kong,” The Inspired Vegan is a collection of Terry’s cooking instructions for his favorite fruits, vegetables and grains combined with stories that highlight issues of food justice.

Below is a clip of Terry reading a passage from The Inspired Vegan, “Farm Fresh,” a chapter dedicated to those working hard to keep our food supply stable, despite financial, weather or political setbacks. “Farm Fresh” contains mouthwatering recipes such as Coconut Quinoa and Smokey Tomatoes, Roasted Plaintains and Crumbled Tempeh, so the video is definitely worth taking a listen to–before heading out tonight to purchase the book.

The King of promoting a vegetarian lifestyle for Britain, the U.S. and the rest of the world, Paul McCartney, has compiled a list of his favorite recipes to help promote his campaign by enticing every meat eater’s taste buds,  the Meat Free Monday Cookbook.

From the publisher:

“Often, though, our vegetarian repertoire is limited, with the result that our enthusiasm to continue with a meat-free day wanes when we are confronted with yet again eating the same dish. With menus for each of the 52 weeks of the year – two main recipes, plus four other ideas for each meal of the day – The Meat Free Monday Cookbook addresses this problem and is aimed at everyone who cares about the environment, is happy to eat vegetarian one day a week, but needs inspiration and guidance to do so.”
