I have had this book for about 1 month. I have made several recipes in it. I am not vegan but wanted to have a more plant based diet. It was important for me to be able to incorporate some of this in my kids diet too..(11 & 18)......soooo, on saying that, I loved everything l made. The breakfast cookies were a hit with all except my 11 yr old because she didn't like the oatmeal but she is 11!!! They were all delicious. I made them smaller than the 8 the recipie stated it made and I freezed them too so in the am I would take 1-2 with a cup of coffee!! The Indian sauces were delicious but for my fussy kids, I pureed the sauce in my Vitamix and had this with rice... Guilty for throwing in a bit of chicken BUT the kids ate more veggies than otherwise. The lasagna is AMAZING! I did incorporate 1lb beef ( again fussy kids) but honestly they had no idea how much veggies they were eating!!! I also made the vegan risotto and vegan mozzarella.....the only non vegan stuff in the lasagna was the Parmesan cheese and beef......guys, my kids lapped this up! 10 min tacos was a hit also ( they had no idea they were eating mushrooms and walnuts)..... The garden Bolognese was wonderful but again, I would puree the final product to make it a sauce and add a little meat......for my kids! I was absolutely happy with the final product but at least I am able to get my kids to eat more veggies without them even knowing!!!! The rainbow rolls with peanut sauce is yummy and light. I have made many of these and have perfected rolling rice paper in my own way!!! The peanut salad was great too and the stuffed sweet potato.... So I give this the thumbs up! I loved that she had a picture for each product that went into the dish. Every recipe has a picture ( for visual people like me, that is important), easy to read. A lot of thought went into this. I am no foodie but I enjoy cooking at home and I enjoy delicious food. This book did not fail!! Absolutely recommend to those who want to experiment with plant based or just add a little more veggies to their diet or the hard core......well worth it.

Wow wow wow. I just love this cooking book! The recipes are super easy. We can do it on the go, with the same basic ingredients. The pictures are simple and show all the ingredients that you need for the recipe. For most, we can trade the veggies suggested with what we have in hands. It's great for the meal prep as well. There is also an index with all the ingredients used in the book, so if you have something particular in hand, you can just look it up in the index section and read what recipe you can do with it for inspiration. The cookbook also provide oil-free recipes, which was a new concept...and it makes sens! At the beginning of the cooking book, the author explains why people should turn to a more plant-based diet, without making anyone feel bad or ashamed. It's really about opening people to an easy and a tasty way of eating a plant-based diet.

Oh boy oh boy! I have to admit I am not a vegetarian, but consider myself a meat minimalist. I want to do better for my body and the earth. So I am trying to do less and less meat and more plant based foods overall. I will admit to collecting cookbooks. I purchased this hardcover and I am 110% love it. I use cookbooks to learn new methods, new ideas and to inspire myself. This cookbook is one of THE best cookbooks I've purchased in years. Great recipes. Great ideas. And LOADED with pictures!! The recipes are not hard and really creative. Everything is laid out over the picture about ingredients - pictures of the ingredients even! breakfast options, soups, sandwiches and salads, main dishes, sauces, sides and desserts - plus nutritional info. Nothing is missing and there is something for every taste. It's amazingly well put together, so well thought out. Exactly how I would put a cookbook together if I were ever asked - no joke. Honestly, in my opinion, if you're to go more to or are already there, this IS the cookbook for you. The only thing I would say is that I wish the binding was spiral backed - usually a deal breaker for me. But I am SOOOO glad I threw all in and purchased anyway! LOVE LOVE LOVE it
