A fifth book entitled The 30-Day Vegan Challenge: The Ultimate Guide to Eating Cleaner, Getting Leaner, and Living Compassionately [10] is expected to be released August 23, 2011, by Random House/Ballantine Books.

Colleen also produces a podcast called "Vegetarian Food for Thought,"[11][12]including some video podcasts[13] and produced a cooking DVD, "Vegetarian Cooking with Compassionate Cooks," which grew out of her Oakland, California-based cooking classes.
