What to do when your daughter comes home from college a vegan, and your husband doesn’t think it’s dinner without meat? Can we all sit down and eat together? In Vegan Vegetarian Omnivore, Anna Thomas teaches cooks how to begin with delicious vegan and vegetarian recipes that everyone can eat and expand them with dairy, meat, and seafood in easy variations. French lentil and farro pilaf with grilled ratatouille makes a beautiful vegan summer supper, with lamb chops for the omnivores. Easy fish soup begins as a robust vegetable soup, but fish can be added five minutes before serving. Anna offers a Thanksgiving menu centered on stuffed pumpkin, but paired with roast turkey breast for those who wish. For dessert, have vegan gingerbread, and add vanilla ice cream… With recipes and menus inspired by the vibrant produce of farmers’ markets, Anna welcomes all eaters to her table–where hospitality is universal.
