January 2015 Bites and Highlights

January was a big month for us here at BenBella Vegan. We launched our new website at the beginning of the year and connecting with so many of you has been a highlight of 2015.

Many of our authors have also had an exciting year so far, and we wanted to take the opportunity to introduce a new series where we share good news from the previous month, in the form of news bites and media highlights. Read on for all of the goodness!

• Cookies for breakfast? Christina Ross shared three desserts from Love Fed so nutritious you can eat them for breakfast on San Diego Living.
• Thanks for the love, Library Journal! Heather Crosby’s YumUniverse a “visual treat” and said Lindsay Nixon’s Happy Herbivore Holidays & Gatherings “well worth checking out for [Nixon’s] spin on celebratory meals.”
