Kim Barnouin, co-author of the Skinny Bitch series who recently wrote her own cookbook, Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook, was a guest on CBS’ “The Early Show” as part of the show’s “Saturday Morning Chef on a Shoestring Challenge.”

Barnouin was there to show her favorite substitutes for animal products, which included almond butter and vegetables oils as well as explain the health benefits of a vegan diet and the controversy surrounding some suggested consequences of meat, such as early puberty in girls.

Her challenge was the make a 3-course meal with a budget of $40. She took the challenge by making an entire vegan meal of kale and white bean soup, polenta-crusted eggplant Parmesan, and chocolate cupcakes with peanut-butter frosting.
