⭐⭐⭐⭐ -- Great cover on this one!

With prices rising on everything lately, I am always on the lookout for great, quick and tasty vegetarian/vegan dishes. This book gave me that is spades!

This cookbook is divided into the following chapters...
-- BREAKFAST
-- BRUNCH
-- LUNCH
-- DINNER
-- SNACKS
-- SWEETS
-- CELEBRATIONS


There is also an introduction that covers things like "key ingredients, q&a, and equipment". The recipes themselves are well laid out and easy to follow. There are plenty of photographs making it a visually pleasing book to flip through.

I have tried a few of the recipes and loved the "mocha caramel" overnight oats. The 'cheesy broccoli waffles" were also super delish. "chickpea tabbouleh with lemon tahini" made a great lunch dish to share with friends. The "cashew cauliflower and spinach daal" was loved by even my pickiest eaters, and the "orange cardamom layer cake" got all thumbs up from everyone that tasted it!

This is definitely a cookbook you will be reaching for again and again!

This cookbook is filled with many nourishing and delicious meals. If you like savoury, like I do, you'll find a variety of meals for every time of the day. If you have a sweet tooth Amy also got you covered with lots of sweet breakfasts, baked goods and mouth watering snacks. 
There are also some more extravagant recipes like a cashew cheese but everything seems very doable without a lot of expensive or unknown ingredients. 
This book is great for people new to a plant based diet but also for people who are living a vegan lifestyle for some years now. I absolutely enjoyed this cookbook and I'm definitely getting my own copy because there are so many more recipes I want to try! 

Thank you to Amy Lanza, Quatro Publishing Group - Fair Winds and NetGalley for this eARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

I’m not vegan but I do enjoy brining in plant based meals into my weekly meal plan. I really enjoyed using this cookbook! Visually, this is a very pleasing cookbook. I’m someone that really needs to see pictures of a recipe to determine if I’ll make it or not. The photography is really well done and makes the recipes even more appetizing! The directions were all very clear and easy to follow, as well as the ingredient lists. What I appreciated the most was the time the author took to explain essential ingredients, answer commonly asked questions, and talk about kitchen equipment that will commonly be used throughout the book. Having all of this placed in the book before you even get to the recipes can help relieve any stress a “newbie” to either cooking or veganism would have.
There are recipes that would appease anyone of any diet and lifestyle. I’ll definitely recommend this cookbook to friends and family!
Thank you netgalley and Amy Lanza for allowing me to review this cookbook.
