Classic Cajun Dirty Rice Dirty rice is a classic Cajun dish that is typically made with chicken livers and/or gizzards and ground meat. The variety of meats and spices give the rice its signature "dirty" look, hence the name. Our version is made with ground pork or ground sausage, but feel free to substitute ground chicken, turkey, or beef. Serve it with extra hot sauce if you're a spice lover.

Anyone can learn something from picking up this cookbook—whether you're new to eating a plant-based diet, or you've been on that train for years. "There have been people who have messaged me and said, 'I've been vegan for 20 years, but I feel like your cookbook gave me a whole new outlook on cooking,'" says Charity.
