Chickpea Magazine - Cool Hunting

by Tara Lange

Chickpea?Magazine is a?high quality, visually rich food?magazine. Though similar in some ways to other magazines featuring food, Chickpea is set far apart by its?dedication to a 100% vegan lifestyle. In 2011, after Cara Livermore and Bob Lawton spent a year growing their food blog?hipsterfood,?they decided it was time for something else and founded the magazine.?"We wanted to make something in the same style as the blog, but with more community interaction and long-form features," explains Livermore.

Though some are wary of a food magazine lacking bacon and goat cheese, this veggie-focused publication packs a punch. Chickpea?showcases the best that vegan cuisine has to offer?"whether it's a personal story, new book, a killer recipe or a photo story that captures the essence of the season at hand." It?encourages whole foods and whole ingredient lifestyles.

Run solely by its two founders, Chickpea?obtains all of its content from open submission calls online. The magazine's contributors range from beginners with great ideas, to experts with well-tested recipes.

Committed to producing a quality product, and to the belief?that magazines should not exist simply "to promote products from huge corporations,"?all issues are printed on recycled paper and are advertisement-free.
