It’s been giveaway crazy around here lately and I’ve got another one for you today! Actually – another two (in one)!

Stellar vegan cookbook author, Kathy Hester, and kitchen utensil giant OXO have teamed up for a fantastic giveaway in anticipation of the release of her new book, OATrageous Oatmeals: Delicious & Surprising Plant-based Dishes From This Humble Heart-Healthy Grain.  I was lucky enough to be a recipe tester for this book so I know how good it is!  I think this is Kathy’s most beautiful book, yet, too – with photos by Kate Lewis.   I can’t wait to have this cookbook on my shelf right next to all of Kathy’s other incredible books.

GIVEAWAY ONE

The mushrooms and ginger are great for getting your immune system back on track. – Kathy Hester

    And I can’t say I’ve ever made anything “crazy” with oats. Pretty much stick with oatmeal or using oat flour in baking. :o)

    Hmmm… I have so many favorite OXO tools that it’s difficult to narrow it down! It’d be a toss up between my cookie scoop and my mango slicer!

    I have their salad spinner, cheese grater with attached box to collect the shavings and can opener. Love them all. I could use new measuring spoons and cups, but they have so many great gadgets. Just spied the mango slicer…. Would like to give that a try.

    It’s nothing crazy, but the 3- to 5-ingredient oatmeal cookies are pretty awesome! Definitely a big hit in this house.

    I love my small OXO measuring cup–it’s clear, and holds just two ounces/or 4 tbsp., and really makes those small amounts accurate to measure, and I don’t spill all over the place, like I would out of a measuring spoon, thanks to the little spout!

    I’d love to use that cookie dough scoop with the spring. I’ve been meaning to get one of those for a long time to help streamline my cookie-forming abilities, but still haven’t gotten around to it. And I’ve heard the OXO one is really good!

    I don’t think it’s a crazy oat dish, but at least it’s crazy delicious? I’ve added oats into banana “ice cream” with raisins and cinnamon to make a sort of oatmeal raisin cookie dough ice cream. Works like a charm 🙂

    I’ll take anything from OXO, love their products! Right now, my favorite tool of theirs is the silicone basting brush. I use it to oil up my squash before roasting it.

    I haven’t been too adventurous with oats, but I did try a savory oat dish for breakfast at City, O’ City which was excellent. It really made me get the wheels turning wondering what I could do with them.

      Brandi, the congee is very good – a nice break from the “usual” oatmeal.
