Awhile back, you learned about Dan and Annie Shannon, a couple at Meet That Shannons that is trying to veganize every recipe in the Betty Crocker Cookbook. The Betty Crocker Project started out as way to document the trials of doing so in 365 days, but the Shannons are taking more time to savor every meat and dairy free moment in order to create the best tasting dishes.

Kiss Me, I’m Vegan had the chance to interview them both.

KMIV: What inspired you to create the Better Crocker Project? What kind of influence are you hoping to have with this project?
Annie: The Betty Crocker brand has a well deserved reputation as being the very best at teaching American amateur chefs how to use products and ingredients to their full potential. When we were putting together this project, we really wanted to help people see how easy it is to be vegan, and that you really can make anything vegan once you know the tricks.

Dan: Mostly I just like to eat a lot.

A couple has decided to make vegan versions of every meat, poultry and dairy dish in the Betty Crocker Cookbook.

Dan and Annie Shannon at MeettheShannons.net decided to take on the faux whopper of a project after watching Julie and Julia, which freaked Annie out because of the lobster killing scene.

According to Ecorazzi, Annie said, “For as long as it takes – Dan & I will be veganizing every recipe in The Betty Crocker Cookbook and sharing our tips and secrets with you – our lurking readers.”

Dan and Annie have already veganized recipes like Cheeseburger Pie and Tuna Casserole.
