Look past the burger on the cover. Look past the bacon also. Think of your favorite faux meat substitute for these items. Now, open up the book and head for the vegetarian section. Breathe.

The Food Network editors have compiled a cookbook, Food Network Magazine 1,000 Easy Recipes: Super Fun Food for Every Day, that looks awfully carnivorous on the outside, but surprisingly plant-friendly on the inside, especially if you consider how easy it is to swap some ingredients here and there.

"Skinny Bitch: Ultimate Everyday Cookbook"

If cutting back on desserts is one of your New Year’s resolutions, you may want to put it on hold until you’ve gobbled up Kim Barnouin‘s Vegan Apple Pie.

A treat that Barnouin’s mother has made for 40 years, Jack’s Grandma’s Apple Pie has undergone a few transformations to suit the Skinny Bitch author’s egg and dairy-free dietary preferences.

Earth Balance vegan butter and Spectrum vegetable shortening are Kim’s preferred switches for the pie, but she was nice enough to give other vegan baking suggestions during her interview with EcoStiletto.

You know exactly who you are.

You never went vegetarian or vegan because you hated the taste of meat. The smell of Thanksgiving turkey still makes you salivate and walking past the steakhouse gives you fantasies that make you feel a bit naughty.

However, there’s no reason to feel guilty about a craving you never give into. And because you know there’s such an abundance of fake meat out there, you never will.

"Easy Green Organic" Anna Getty

Anna Getty‘s cookbook, Easy Green Organic, doesn’t necessarily mirror her own tastes in food or her hard set beliefs about making food purchases. The actress calls herself a flexitarian, but is more comfortable with vegetarian cooking, often eating vegan. She leans so much towards plant-based cooking, she was forced to ask for help in creating meat dishes because the publishers of Easy Green Organic, Chronicle Books, didn’t want the book to be vegetarian.

And just because “organic” is in the book title, doesn’t mean she looks down upon those who aren’t flocking to Whole Food every Saturday.

“I like Jamie Oliver’s approach, because his focus isn’t on organic, it’s on getting people off really toxic food, like fast food and preservative-filled processed foods,” said the great-granddaughter of J. Paul Getty in an interview with Organic Authority.

Brendan Brazier

Brendan Brazier has the formula for a how a vegan athlete stays the course–through every Iron-man, Ultra Marathon and National Long Course Triathlon.

No stranger to the kitchen, Brazier has his own line of supplemental powders, bars and smoothies, all of which are vegan.

“To provide staying power, the optimal carbohydrate to protein ratio immediately before a longer workout or race is about three parts carbohydrate to one part protein,” he told NJ.com. “I like to have half of a banana, a couple of dates and a Vega bar before a long-distance workout. I’ll also make an energy gel to eat if I start to feel hungry or weak during a workout

Grab the recipe for Brendan’s gel after the jump.
