Winner! Congratulations Katja Teske. You've won this amazing book, and I hope you enjoy it. I'll be in touch.

You effing need this book, yes?

I met Michelle and Matt at this year's Food Bloggers of Canada conference, and was impressed by their down to earth attitude, considering that they had just released one of the most anticipated cookbooks of the year. The Thug Kitchen cookbook implores you to 'Eat like you give a f***' and is a collection of gorgeous vegan recipes.

The book certainly has attitude. Written in their characteristic 'Thug Kitchen' style, it is peppered with salty language, but my (partly) vegetarian family definitely can vouch for the recipes.

The recipes are simple and delicious and complement those on their blog. Vegan food is seems as being challenging, but Michelle and Matt make it exciting, with a collection of fresh, well tested recipes that will certainly get your taste buds tingling. Now that is worth a swear word or two.
