Review: Practical, inventive and delicious - I bought this book when it came out and it has become a trusted source of delicious recipes, which can easily be modified to remove oils if you follow a whole foods plant based diet, without affecting the final result. I thought I would list some of my favorite recipes in the book, which I had made countless times: * Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus Pasta -- this recipe is brilliant in its simplicity and such a time saver. Sometimes I use fresh tomatoes instead of sun dried tomatoes to lower the sodium content. If I have time, I make my own hummus with no oil added. I have also made this with a navy bean "hummus" to make a vegan "Alfredo" sauce. * Cheesy Tofu Scramble - this is the best tofu scramble I have eaten. I like to add half a shredded carrot and some shredded kale when cooking to add more veggies. It makes for a killer breakfast burrito. * Smashed Pinto Beans with Tahini - I am usually not a fan of pinto beans but the addition of tahini softens the taste of the pinto beans and makes it creamy. It is delicious spread on tostadas or as a base for vegan nachos. *Eggplant Parmesan Meatballs - another tasty recipe that is a little more labor intensive. It works without the addition of oil. * Artichoke Pinto Burgers - a great alternative to the usual black bean burgers. The taste is unique and the texture a little meat-like thanks to the artichokes. * Vegan Caesar Salad Dressing - this is my staple when I want to make a kale salad. * Butternut Squash Tahini Curry - another brilliant recipe where you get the consistency and flavor of Thai curry but without using any coconut milk. I add a can of chickpeas and a cubed block of tofu to add more protein.
Review: Beautiful book, easy to follow vegan recipes! - Easy to follow recipes, beautiful photographs, warm & personal commentary accompanying each recipe describing why it is special to Nisha and her family, or how it came about. She writes like she speaks in her shorts/reels, funny and personable. The recipes are delicious and if you don't like an ingredient, (I hate cilantro!) she offers substitutions for each recipe.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great recipes, horrible binding
*by S***E on October 11, 2024*

I've had this cookbook for a few weeks now and have cooked a number of recipes. My family has enjoyed them and they are all easy to do (even on a week night) with ingredients that I already have on hand, which I think is great. On the negative side, I've had this book for under a month and the cover has already come off - it was apparently very weakly glued on and just detached (no ripping or tearing, just fell off). I'm very careful with books, so this seems to be just shoddy manufacturing.
