This book is great! You do not have to be vegan to give it a try. I love this book, even if you’re not vegan, she gives great ideas on a variety of things. I have tried quite a few of them and they have been absolutely delicious. Can’t wait to try more!!! Yummy!
AngelEyez –
Mrs. Tabitha Brown never disappoints! Since watching her videos online I’ve loved her recipes and this cookbook does not disappoint! Her videos literally came to vision through this cookbook and I’m glad I purchased it. I’ve already tried several recipes and I’ll continue to use more!

We already had several of Tabitha’s recipes in our rotation. My brother made the spaghetti squash the other night and it was a hit. Can’t wait to try more.
JUNEBUG51 –
If meat and chicken and fish are going to get hard to find or purchase one day, then Tabitha Brown’s “Cooking From the Spirit” is the cookbook for me! She has such a bright and happy outlook about her food, and vegan doesn’t sound crazy when she tells you and guides you through the recipe. I’m onboard as long as Tabitha is my mentor!
Candis Barr –
I love this book. I went vegan years ago and fell off because I simply couldn’t make the foods vegan style that Loved to eat. Well this book has Everything from breakfast to sandwiches to soups to salads to pastas to main meals like meatloaf and Mac and cheese to deserts and juices. I’ve made 7 meals already from the book and my family loves them all! Buy the book y’all!!!!

Charenda WilliamsCharenda Williams –
Ok everyone, listen! I’m typically a person that always has to try recipes more than once, tweaking them a little to get them to turn out right. This one came out perfect the first time around. I mean it was really good! I can’t wait to try more but this lasagna recipe alone made having the book worth it!
Brownsuga –
I can’t wait to start cooking your recipes. Everything looks delicious.
Vanessa Edwards –
I really like this cookbook. It’s beautiful… I had to display it in my kitchen to pretty to put away on a shelf.
YaYaover50 –
Not fully vegan but on my way so I am excited about learning and trying new foods!! Thank you Ms. Tab as my granddaughter calls you, you have been a great inspiration to me in many ways!! I pray one day to meet you in person!!
Rachel Stivers –
Tabitha came through with these recipes!!! I have tried a few already, she’s on to something!! Just one thing, don’t go looking for measurements, add until the ancestors tell you to stop lol
Laura Benson –
Different than some other vegan recipe books. This one is so practical, and allows for plant based “meat”.
FTJ –
I love that I have finally ordered my cookbook. It is really a joy to just set and read it.
Like New Books By Martina –
I love Tab and she is the reason why I’ve lost 64 pounds! Her recipes are delicious but I haven’t tried all of them yet
BlessedEducator –
I love how Tabitha lays out the recipes making them simple to follow! I am not concerned about measurements! I season until the ancestors say that is enough! This is a must have for anyone wanting to incorporate vegan meals into their diets and/or want to transition to becoming a vegan! Thanks Tab! I cannot wait until part two!
Dr. Kay Jay –
Been following Tab for a long time and having this cookbook allows me to prepare some of her dishes in my home for my family, love it!
It’s a good game –
I am so in love with my New cookbook from Ms. Tabitha Brown. The recipe’s I’ve tried are delicious and flavorful l. I am not a vegan but I enjoy eating a majority plant based diet. Thanks for creating this book it’s definitely worth the investment!
DKelly –
This cookbook is AMAZING! Super easy to follow recipes, freedom to explore in making them your own, quick cook times, and YUMMY!!! This needs to be in your kitchen. Just go ahead and get it, and thank Tab later, lol.
Ms. Lynne –
that this book will bring me yummy dishes. I just received it, couldnt open the box fast enough. I did a quick flip through, oohing and awhing the whole time. There are so many recipes (187 pages total) and love that she included pictures. The quality of the pics is not the best, but that does not stop me from giving it top rated. Wishing Tabitha Brown all the best and continued success in all her endeavors. Now to go and starting bookmarking what I will make first.
Amira BeattyAmira Beatty –
It’s like having Tabitha Brown cooking with you in your kitchen! I love the hook and her!!
Kelsey –
Recipes seem easy to follow and not too complicated. Going to enjoy cooking these recipes
S.Wilds –
Recipes are amazing
vegebrarian –
I have already tried several recipes featured in this book just through watching Tabitha Brown’s YouTube videos but was not sure what to expect from a larger collection. I have many vegetarian cookbooks and what I enjoy about this one is that the recipes are both creative and accessible. Making roast beef out of thinly sliced portobellos? Pickled mushroom deviled eggs? Nothing in this book is complicated to make but so many taste like a revelation. We’ve only had the book for a few days but have already tried several recipes. We just had sausage and cabbage for dinner and I’m about to make some of the Chocolate Banana Toast for dessert. It is true that some of the recipes do not have measurements but I feel that just allows me to make intuitive decisions based on my family and what I have on hand (cause that’s my business! 🙂 )
Kylandria –
Looooove the cookbook!! I really appreciate the breakdown of ingredients and kitchen staples that repeat in variation throughout each recipe. I also really liked how those things were presented BEFORE even seeing a recipe!! This is by far a cookbook that ANYONE could follow and be empowered to cook in their own way !!
Ms. Silk –
Tab has such a down home, warm inviting spirit & it shows in how she cooks. This isn’t an exact measurement recipe book. More like suggested ingredients & you use as much or less as you want. If you’re new to cooking this may be discouraging at first. But experiment & always taste. Then write your particular measurements/adjustments/additions/omissions in the margins making each recipe unique to you. Love supporting her, highly recommend & don’t forget her Sunshine seasoning available here on Amazon as well! [Can’t ever find it in my local stores]
chatanooga –
Nice presentation of pictures, recipes and tidbits into her life and vegan journey. Many recipes I would actually try. Clear directions and “Tabisms” for assistance. Great book! Can’t go wrong vegan +Tabitha Brown.
Lareynavibez –
I bought this book for myself to help me make vegan dishes but after looking at it most of the things in that book, I already knew how to create. So if there’s somebody who is trying to go plant base and doesn’t know anything about it, this book is easy and resourceful. You’ll love it.
Lady J –
I was totally impressed with the recipes and the photos were beautiful. It makes it easy to cook vegan/veggie forward meals.
janayjanay –
Don’t hesitate just buy it ….I just moved into my new place last month so this was a must have. I’m big on eating healthy and big on aesthetics and this went so well with my kitchen decor. Not too mention these recipes are fire. I literally just received my package and couldn’t stop smiling. It’s beautiful! I even ordered a cook book stand for it. Auntie Tab is so inspirational and encouraging not to mention she truly represents black excellence and continues to draw others closer to Christ through all of her content. I can’t wait to utilize this cookbook. I plan on trying one recipe every Saturday once I’m officially all set with all my furniture. Thank you auntie Tab and congratulations on all of your present and future endeavors. Can’t wait to purchase more products.
Amanda L Phillips –
Purchased and preorder and it sent me an email about a week before stating when it would ship and then arrived at that time. I love my new cookbook.
busybeebusybee –
I was nervous when I read the reviews since they said there were no measurements but I’m from the south and my Momma Grandma Aunts and uncles don’t cook with measurements either so I ordered it. Y’all when I tell you I made the Lasagna on page 111 (angel number if you know you know) and I had to tell EVERYBODY I know how good this was. OMG without a measurement in site I made the best lasagna I’ve ever had. Y’all Ms. Tab know what she talking about get the book relax and don’t over think it. I enjoyed how colorful everything was when I was cooking. Using veggies I’ve never used colors I’ve never seen while cooking. So don’t stress just get the book get in your kitchen turn your music on and just have fun and let the spirit lead you right to something delicious
Cheryl –
This book is what I need to make a transition to a new way of eating. I’ve always liked the vegan and vegetarian option of food, so this is a good book for me. Most of the pantry suggestions I already had in my pantry. I love she does not give measurement and if you cook it is easy to follow the recipes without measurements. You can even adjust by leaving out ingredients you do not care for and adding one that you do. My favorite so far are the Carrot Dogs and the Carrot Bacon these actually worked for me. Thank you Tabitha for the inspiration.
natasha b. –
I love me some Auntie Tab!! so I was looking forward to getting this book and she didn’t disappoint! The recipes look amazing although I have yet to make something but that’s comingSOON…..SPRING IS HERE!!
T. Jackson –
I so Love her and her Family. Her personality is so big & beautiful you can feel it as you read her recipes. Thank You for the recipes Sis, it’s a pleasure to prepare them. I would tell anyone to treat themselves and get this book.
Tiffany –

Debbie W. –
Excellent
Fia.So.Flyy –
This is exactly the way I cook. The only time I use recipes, is when I bake cakes. My children always used to say I should start a YouTube channel or write a cookbook, but I had no idea how to do that without recipes and for me, they’re too hard to write. So refreshing to see a book out there written in my style.Outside of that, I love the way Tabitha has inserted her personality all throughout. She’s added stories, Tabism’s, and gentle reminders to be easy on yourself. When reading it, I could hear it in her voice. The photos are phenomenal and almost all recipes come with pictures.Overall, I think this book is excellent. It gives you the freedom to follow your own instinct and learn how to cook without recipe restrictions, and it’s presented in Tab’s sweet, southern Auntie tone.
LofKahLofKah –
Love this cookbook!! Auntie Tab does it again! The variety of recipes and the ease of not having measurements, but really using your own judgment
yelpelitechickyelpelitechick –
The media could not be loaded.
Auntie Tab did her thing thing on this recipe book . I love the visuals it makes it feel more personalized .
JNJMom –
I’m so excited to try out these recipes. They don’t look intimidating and best of all full of soul, the African American culture and flavor. It’s about time!
MoniqueMonique –
Hands down the best cook book I have ever used and seen. It’s truly authentic and fits my style of cooking.. absolutely no measurement! I am no vegan but my family will be enjoying vegan cooking mixed in with their favorite dish from now on.. well done Tab!
GlitterFlame89 –
The recipes in this book are great, fairly simple and very flavorful. But the writing style and personality of the author coming through is really my favorite part. It feels more like having a conversation with a friend than it feels like a cookbook, and there is a lot of heart & humor in it.
Tiffany Archible –
I love that she gives a list of food items to have in the kitchen.
A. RICHARDSON-BLEEN –
Easy to follow recipes that don’t require exotic ingredients or a culinary degree. They are tasty and healthy. This book is also a work of art the photographs are beautiful and you feel like Tabitha Brown is in the kitchen cheering you on.
Sherry L Upshaw –
Tabitha “Auntie Tab” is a breath of fresh air and a true freedom rider even in a cookbook she represents what true freedom to be YOU whoever that may be. Her #nomessurements approach to cooking in and of itself is liberating.Great Cook”book”! I love you Auntie Tab♥️
Erika –
I wish there was more pictures
P.A. –
I Love everything Tabitha Brown does! Her cookbook is user friendly and right on time for those choosing a healthier eating lifestyle. I love the mini autobiography of herself and her family that she allows us to see throughout her cookbook. You would be doing your health an injustice if you didn’t buy her cookbook! Tabitha you did it again! You rock lady!
Jeff ike –
Tab is a genius! I love how much she loves food! Her recipes are delicious. My only wish is for measurements in this book, but I guess I’ll have to measure with my heart!
Renee HunterRenee Hunter –
Was at Tabitha’s book signing and couldn’t purchase any books they were sold out so I quickly went to Amazon and purchased 3 books. love it love it
Brenda Diann Johnson –
Tried recipe and my family loved the Quesadillas!
Katana RogueKatana Rogue –
I’ve been following Tab for a while now. It started with her IG recipes, but then I fell in love with her spirit. I was super excited for this cook book. Previously, I’ve made her carrot pulp sushi and her pecan tacos many times and they are definitely favorites. Tonight I did the “Crab” less Cakes. Wasn’t sure my seasoning was on point, but after baking them up, it was amaze balls. I also enjoyed the bow tie Alfredo. Will probably add some peas next time. I’m not vegan (but moving in that direction), so it’s been a fun adventure trying new things. “Cashew yogurt?! Hey, tastes like yogurt! I don’t know about this cheese…. Hey, that’s not too bad!!” I also like that these are easy to make. Some other vegan recipe books have so many steps, it’s not what I want to do when I get home from work. Thanks for the fantastic cook book, Tab!
Tina M. Weiss –
I bought two-one for my mom and one for myself. My mom has health issues that is prompting her to go mostly plant based and I try to eat healthy too. I love the ease of these recipes. Tabitha Brown writes from the heart, and this comes through on each page. The photos are gorgeous, and I look forward to making and eating each recipe!
Jennifer Gladden –
Very good

Easy to read and great pictures. Recipes are Awesome!
Nessa –
Tab serves up heaping portions of love and acceptance, along with delicious vegan cuisine. She makes it easy for anyone at any level of experience to try vegan cooking, and make tasty meals for their whole family.
Music Lover –
I am enjoying my new meat free journey and very happy I purchased this cookbook!
Ola Jackson –
This is the second cookbook that I have ever purchased. Looks like some great recipes. I was surprised to see that there were no measurements for most of them. But, I plan on giving them all a try. It just would have been easier if I knew how much of each item to use; especially since I am not the greatest cook.I am looking forward to having some of the recipes replace some of my bad meals and transition me into a healthier eating lifestyle
Margaux –
I’m so glad to have this book as I delve into a vegan lifestyle and learn how to cook overall. I must say, as someone who is a novice in cooking, not having measurements doesn’t seem practical. I can appreciate the concept of “trusting yourself” and “knowing what you like,” but I would prefer to learn the intended taste of the recipes first before making those adjustments for myself. But with all said, I’m eager to start on this recipe journey Tabatha has laid out for us!
Reesie C. –
I haven’t tried any of the recipes yet, but when I tell you the sheer beauty of this cookbook is just incredible. I was only expecting the recipes but then…there are the Tabisms. The Tabisms might even make you tear up a bit. Love it!
Baby Girl –
This book is the best. So easy to follow.
Chrismiss –
I love everything about Tab’s cookbook. I hope she puts out another one with more recipes.
L. L. Brown –
It’s nicely illustrated and well put together. I love that it doesn’t have a removable cover or is a paper cover – the front and back images are the actual cover, and it’s a hard back!!! Hardback cookbooks are easier to display and wipe off if splattered.
KimKim –
Love me some Tabitha Brown. Great recipes and tried them over the holidays. Great way to introduce the vegan life.
Mary C.. Little –
This was a well loved Christmas present! She loved it!
Yvonne Duncan –
Tab says if you don’t trust yourself in the kitchen you don’t need to be in the kitchen!! Got this book for my birthday and y’all I love it!! I believe every cookbook should be done by the spirit…. Cause the spirit knows your tongue y’all!!
