Hush puppies, pot pie, Gyros, and pound cake.

If you thought these tasty foods were out of the question on your low-calorie diet, let alone your vegan diet, then chef and cookbook author Alicia C. Simpson is on a mission to change the way you and others think.

In her new cookbook, Quick and Easy Low-Cal Vegan Comfort Food: 150 Down-Home Recipes Packed with Flavor, Not Calories, Simpson shares with readers recipes for whipping up decadent, but healthier vegan breakfast dishes, breads, salads, main dishes, desserts, and drinks.

Inside the book are vegan recipes ranging from lower-calorie Vegan Chili ?Cheese? Fries, ?Chorizo? Breakfast Quesadillas, and ?Meatball? Soup, to a Carolina BBQ Sammich, Sweet Potato Souffle and Butter Rum Pound Cake.

The figure-friendly fare also includes ?Cheesesteaks,? Vegetable Noodle Soup, and Lemongrass Soda.

Simpson covers all aspects of vegan comfort food dished by providing the tips for creating southern classics, as well as Tex-Mex-favorites, barbecue dishes, and even ole-fashioned one-dish meals.

And to keep readers on track, along with each recipe, Simpson provides nutritional data on calories, carbohydrates, fat, and fiber, and also suggests menus ranging from 1,400 to 2,000 calories.
