Why Pre-Orders Matter

Why place an order for a cookbook that isn’t available until February? Well, pre-orders are one of the best ways to support authors you love! The number of pre-orders sets the tone for the book and decides so many things such as what stores will carry the book and where they’ll sell the book (hello in-store at Target!), media opportunities (think podcasts and morning television), and the overall success and longevity of the book. Best-seller lists, awards, and overall hype is all generated by pre-sale orders so as an author, and a consumer, I am so grateful!

-from the foreword by Carleigh Bodrug (NYT Bestselling Author of Plant You)

About the Break-Up and The Cookbook

In her fun, sassy and informative new book, Breaking Up with Dairy, Chef Bai shares her own personal experience breaking up with dairy in-the-midst of a personal health battle through which she learned the impact of dairy products on her overall health and diet. Determined to find a better way to live, she made a commitment to end her toxic love affair with dairy - learning the hard truths about the industry, its impact on health, the planet, our animal friends, and found post-breakup joy and pleasure in creating just as delicious foods filled with the flavors and textures she craved.

Whether you've made the switch to a vegan diet or are just considering the change, cheese can be the breaking point that keeps you from breaking up. It's everywhere—and let's face it, it's delicious.
 
In Breaking Up With Dairy, Chef Bai shares more than 100 unbelievable plant-based dairy recipes. From basics such as milks, coffee creamers, and sauces, to gourmet-quality cheeses (including muenster, pourable mozz, and a chevre log that’s perfect for either a date night or a solo eve with Sauv B), to pastas, tacos, pizzas, and the most decadent milkshake ever.

Thank goodness Chef Bai, is here to hold your hand and show you that creating dairy-free cheesy dishes isn’t only doable, it is downright irresistible.
