Brian Patton, The Sexy Vegan, on Compassionate Cooking for the Holidays!
Our feature interview is with Brian L. Patton, also known as his alter ego “The Sexy Vegan“.
Brian came to internet semi-fame in the early days of YouTube with his funny, irreverent, off-beat vegan cooking videos. He has since penned cookbooks, contributed to and been featured on television and major media outlets such as The New York Times and The Huffington Post, and is a regular recipe columnist for VegNews Magazine.
Brian is also an executive chef, popular social media personality, and founder of 99 Publishing, makers of expertly crafted, single-recipe cookbooks.
In this interview, Brian tells us about the hottest innovations in vegan cooking, gives us tips and advice on how to prepare a stellar and successful holiday vegan dinner, and speaks about creating new traditions around food in which all can be happy and satisfied with delicious and fulfilling vegan food.
