Reviews
Washington Book Review, 3/2/16
"This book is full of great recipes...Protein Ninja will not replace your old cookbook but it will complement all the cookbooks you may have in your kitchen. It not only provides about a hundred tasty, scrumptious recipes but also techniques to improve your cooking by using protein powder to cook what you already cook."

Curled Up with a Good Book, 3/8/16
"If you are seriously into veganism, or want to really bounce around on a protein-induced muscle-building exercise high, this is the book for you. Veteran cookery writer Terry Hope Romero has come up with unusual new recipes to tickle your meatless fancy...With vivid color photos that make every dish look delectable, a handy, kitchen-y sort of size, and a complete food index, Protein Ninja is a must-have for soy-weary vegans, those who like their protein a goodly distance from the cow, and even those new to the whole vegan ethos."

Milwaukee Shepherd-Express, 3/15/16
"[Romero] isn't a militant proselytizer but a vegan author-chef who seems perfectly satisfied if her omnivore readers simply add more plant-based items to their diet."

Praise for Protein Ninja

VegNews, January/February 2016
"We've all heard the dreaded 'but where do you get your protein?' question, and thanks to Terry Hope Romero, we've now got answers, as the vegan icon's latest cookbook features 100 plant-protein-packed recipes perfect for everyone from professional athletes to people on the go."

Vegetarian Times, March 2016
"Protein Ninja deliciously explains how to sneak more protein into vegan recipes."

Metro, 2/29/16
"Protein Ninja proves sneaking protein into your meals isn't hard, it just takes a little creativity."

Lisa's Project Vegan, 2/17/16
"[Romero] delivers new and clever ways to make sure we get enough protein...What a great book...The recipes are creative, flavorful and easy to follow...This is cookbook that should be on your kitchen bookshelf. It is fun, different and a great answer to the age old question, but how do you get your protein?"

Powell's Books Blog, 2/29/16
"[Romero's] vegan books have helped to bring about a new vegan renaissance...Protein Ninja addresses the concern many healthy food advocates have with a vegan diet--the lack of protein...I'm an omnivore and I'll happily cook from Protein Ninja."
Whisk and Quill, 3/24/16
"Gives us recipes for every meal of the day. Gratefully they are quick and easy, as well as ethnically diverse. No bored palates. The collection offers plant-based protein dishes that are more sophisticated and creative. One might easily say, gourmet...Romero offers tons of advice on how to easily up your protein intake."

Soul Cycle, 4/14/16
"An impressive collection of perhaps the best high-protein foods for meat-free eaters...Romero's recipes prove suitable for athletes and laymen alike."

T.O.F.U. Magazine, 4/13/16
"This book isn't just for athletes...If you're looking for a boost of protein in your diet or meals, or don't know how to answer that question 'But where do you get your protein?' this book is phenomenal...In addition to upping the protein game, the flavours are what you'd expect from Terry: bold, distinctive, a bit quirky, and addictive."

Portland Oregonian, 4/13/16
"Features 100 plant-based recipes that are loaded with protein, and some of that coming from stealth protein powders, which Romero deploys ninja-style."

Atlanta Journal-Constitution, 4/21/16
"[Romero] leads the charge with 100 lean, mean recipes using a wide range of readily available ingredients--from supermarket-friendly staples to cutting-edge superfoods."
Sand and Succotash, 3/23/16
"If worrying about not getting enough protein in your diet is the only thing holding you back from becoming vegan, Protein Ninja dispels that worry and provides over 100 protein rich recipes for you to choose from...with gluten-free and soy-free options, too...A really great cookbook if you are wanting to increase your protein take."

InfoDad blog, 3/17/16
"Less talky and less of an advocacy book than many aimed at vegans...Absent here are the cutesy titles to which some recipe books gravitate...This is a book that delivers to vegans just what its subtitle promises: 'a protein punch.'"

Library Journal, 3/15/16
"[Romero] once again shows that protein comes in a variety of forms and can be seasoned any number of ways...Refreshingly, her recipes don't rely on standbys such as tofu and tempeh for every meal...The common ingredients used throughout (ginger, garlic, liquid smoke, etc.) are easy to find...With creative and satisfying recipes, including ones that are gluten free and nut free, Romero's latest is sure to be in demand for eaters of all types, especially those who avoid eating animal products."
