Summary

"Plant-based eating is more than the latest diet fad. It's a research-proven path to losing weight, living longer, and preventing heart disease, cancer, and a whole host of other health issues. Plus it's environmentally friendly and easy on the wallet. Includes more than 150 tasty and healthy breakfasts, entrées, quick meals, and even desserts, such as Farmers Market Enchiladas, Tropical French Toast, and Chocolate Espresso Nut Torte. The book offers tips on how to build a plant-based pantry, adapt favorite recipes to be plant-based, and shop for a plant-based diet (including the difference between all the new plant-based "meats" now on the market) as well as easy additions and substitutions for those who aren't ready to give up meat completely--as well as for those who want to go fully vegan. Includes 10 sample meal plans for different health and lifestyle needs"--
