Chrissy Teigen Dubs YouTuber ‘Vegan Teigan’ For Veganizing Her Recipes From ‘Cravings: Hungry for More’

American supermodel, author, and “Lip Sync Battle” host Chrissy Teigen has offered high praise to one YouTuber after they veganized recipes from her recent cookbook “Cravings: Hungry for More.”

Whilst the book contains vegan-friendly recipes, a significant amount more than her first book “Cravings,” it also includes a number that require animal products. However, vegan vlogger and Teigen fan Rachel Resnick, founder of the YouTube channel Ladle by Ladle, recently decided to help viewers veganize one of those recipes.

In the video, Resnick substitutes dairy cream for a homemade cashew-based cream to make “Creamy Tomato Soup,” and cooks “Crispy Potato Smashies,” an already vegan recipe. Teigen herself spotted the vlog and Tweeted the link to her followers with the caption, “Vegan Teigen!!! or is it now Vigh-gen Teigen? Either way, go vegan queen! Such a cool idea!”

This is not the first time the model has expressed her support for meat-free food; earlier this year, she dined at the vegan-friendly Jean-Georges’ New York restaurant ABCV. Posting about the experience on Instagram, she revealed that the meal could even convince her to go vegetarian. She later posted a follow-up Tweet, noting that the meet-free feast was “incredible.” She continued, “All vegetarian, every single dish so flavorful and unique and absolutely bonkers delicious. You guys have killed it and deserve all the praise in the world!!!”
