Welcome to my Lil' Store!

Welcome to my little shop of joy! Here’s where you’ll find my books, recipe e-books, one-on-one sessions, dreamy vegan trips, and my favorite products (yes, the ones I’m asked about all the time!). Thanks for being here!

Love,

My Books

I’m the very proud author of eight books. I have a pretty awesome page already set up pointing you to how and where you can find my books, including signed copies. 🙏 While I’m always grateful when you buy directly from me, I’m honestly just happy if you buy my books from wherever makes sense for you!

Book Your Session

“Colleen Patrick-Goudreau has a unique ability to communicate with conviction and moral clarity while also acknowledging the gray areas of ethical living. She gives voice to the universal challenges we all face while empowering us with exactly what we need to overcome them…and come out stronger and better for having experienced them.

~Gene Baur, President and cofounder of Farm Sanctuary

Recipe E-Books and Cooking Classes

Because my publisher took The Vegan Table and Color Me Vegan out of print, I now have the joy of repurposing these recipes—ones for which I own the copyright—so they can live on in these beautiful collections. (I have many other books still in print.)

Recipe E-Books — Enjoy a variety of curated, theme-based mini e-books featuring delicious plant-based recipes perfect for vegans and non-vegans, with a focus on special occasions and holidays throughout the year. Each e-book contains recipes that have been tested, loved, and perfected for years.

On-Demand Cooking Classes — Each class includes full written recipes plus a video demonstration you can watch anytime. Choose from favorites like The Art of Focaccia, The Joy of Vegan Holiday Baking, Elegant Vegan Italian Dishes, and Summer Salads & Sides.

“Patrick-Goudreau remains one of the most endearing and innovative vegan chefs.”

~Bryant Terry, chef, activist, author

Life-Affirming All-Inclusive Vegan Trips

Join me for unforgettable, fully hosted journeys where every detail is taken care of—from accommodations and activities to 100% plant-based meals. These trips are designed to nourish your body, mind, and spirit while exploring some of the most beautiful places in the world. All you have to do is show up, relax, and immerse yourself in the culture, nature, and flavors of each destination—knowing every bite is compassionate and every experience is curated with care. Plus, I guarantee you’ll meet new besties! You can always stay up to date with upcoming trips here.

And here’s a tip from the hip: if there’s a trip you’re even remotely interested in—pre-register. There’s no obligation to commit once it goes live, but being on the pre-registration list means you’ll be the first to get the booking link. Trust me—these trips sell out fast.

“Colleen Patrick-Goudreau is a breath of fresh air in a world that, far too often, thumbs its nose at people who prioritize compassion.”
