Who is Dustin Harder?

Dustin Harder is the host and creator of the original vegan travel culinary series, The Vegan Roadie. The show is described as a version of the popular Food Network series Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives.

He is an author, recipe creator, and graduate of the Natural Gourmet Institute.

 

Living La Vida Vegan

Dustin became a vegan in 2009 but loved to travel well before then. Therefore, it would only stand to reason that he would combine both! Dustin now travels the country (and the world!) educating people about the joys of living “plant-strong”!

Dustin’s Books

  • The Simply Vegan Cookbook is Dustin’s first contribution as an author. Forget about vegan cookbooks that require specialty ingredients and leave you unsatisfied. The Simply Vegan Cookbook takes vegan cooking to the tastiest level with easy, delicious recipes that are fun to make and delightful to eat.

As the creator and host of The Vegan Roadie, Dustin Harder has traveled over 110,000 miles―and visited every grocery store along the way― to find out which vegan foods are (and are not) accessible. Taking this into account, The Simply Vegan Cookbook provides healthful, balanced vegan meals using easy-to-find, affordable vegan ingredients.
