Ellen （Ellie） Goldstein ，

Accessible， interesting and easy vegan cookbook。 With lovely pictures and clear explanations。 You too can glow from the inside out！

Christine W ，

Some delicious recipes， such as festive kale salad with sweet apple-cinnamon vinaigrette and pecan Parmesan， but more time-consuming and expensive than expected。

Alexandria ，

Excellent！ Cant wait to try out some of the recipes ive ear marked。My only criticism is that itd be nice if there was a nutritional breakdown accompanied with the recipes。

Marne ，

This is one of my hands down favorite cookbooks。 The one that when I make one of the recipes for friends， they walk out with a copy of the recipe。 That good。 Easy substitutions to add meat/dairy， no hard to find ingredients。

Maria Strauss ，

Has nice recipes， it is OK。

Bree Maack ，

My favorite cookbook。 The tacos in here are a favorite for my birthday weekend trip I take with my sisters every year！！！！

R Waterfall ，

Cool vegan cookbook！ The food photography is excellent and I honestly just enjoyed looking at all the recipes。 ;） So far， I've tried the Chia Power Doughnuts （as muffins， pg。 41） and the Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas （pg 147）。 They were both a success！ Definitely recommend， if you're an omnivore， vegetarian or vegan！ Cool vegan cookbook！ The food photography is excellent and I honestly just enjoyed looking at all the recipes。 ;） So far， I've tried the Chia Power Doughnuts （as muffins， pg。 41） and the Sweet Potato and Black Bean Enchiladas （pg 147）。 They were both a success！ Definitely recommend， if you're an omnivore， vegetarian or vegan！ 。。。more

This is a must have recipe book for those wanting vegan recipes。 I have made most of the recipes and they are delicious！

Lena Phealan ，

The recipes are excellent。 It would be nice to have nutritional info included。

Susan ，

An excellent recipe book for tasty and easy to make Vegan dishes。 Includes: breakfasts， appetizers， soups and main dishes and uses ingredients that are easily purchased。 As a newby to plant-based eating， I tried over half of the recipes and most were keepers。

A favorite of mine。 A little thin on entrees and too many Tex-mex style recipes。 It also falls victim to the same plight of all vegan cookbooks—- a big dessert section。 I’d personally rather they skip that all together 。。。 Although I’m not vegan and just prefer to make the real stuff for dessert。 Recipes are delicious for the most part though。

Andrea ，

This is a main stable cookbook for me。 It helped me start my whole food plant based lifestyle。 If you are WFPB you need to change some recipes since there is a difference between WFPB and vegan。 But it will help get you started。

I liked the book itself but wasn't interested in a ton of the recipes。 I did make the lentil loaf， sans raisins， and it was a hit。 My omnivore son loves meatloaf but says he likes this more！ He also enjoyed lentil loaf in a sandwich too。 I liked the book itself but wasn't interested in a ton of the recipes。 I did make the lentil loaf， sans raisins， and it was a hit。 My omnivore son loves meatloaf but says he likes this more！ He also enjoyed lentil loaf in a sandwich too。 。。。more

This is the best cookbook I have ever used。 The recipes are simple， flavourful and very healthy。 They also seem easy to adjust， and remain tasty。

If you had told me a few years ago that I'd ever own a vegan cookbook， I might have laughed。 It isn't that I have anything against veganism， but I am a fairly committed omnivore。 But my best friend had been exploring moving increasingly toward a plant-based diet， so she got me this book for Christmas。 As someone who actually does READ cookbooks， I feel confident in reviewing it here。 Liddon has a very approachable， non-preachy style。 She gives an overview to different types of oils， flours， and If you had told me a few years ago that I'd ever own a vegan cookbook， I might have laughed。 It isn't that I have anything against veganism， but I am a fairly committed omnivore。 But my best friend had been exploring moving increasingly toward a plant-based diet， so she got me this book for Christmas。 As someone who actually does READ cookbooks， I feel confident in reviewing it here。 Liddon has a very approachable， non-preachy style。 She gives an overview to different types of oils， flours， and nuts， etc as well as techniques。 I could do without some of the cutesy names for the recipes， but Liddon is also fairly self-aware of her tone: "I'm sure it sounds cliché coming from a vegan。。。" she tells us when she tells us how excited she is about the "Salads" section。 The recipes are divided into sections: breakfast; smoothies， juice & tea; appetizers; salads; soup; entrées; sides; power snacks; desserts; and homemade staples。 Very useful is the "basic cooking chart" which gives basic cooking times for lentils， quinoa and the like。 The food photography is quite nice， and there are photos of Liddon and her husband peppered throughout the book。 She does， in fact， seem to glow。Of the recipes， strong standouts （that I tried） are: Healing rooibos tea， Sweet potato & Black bean enchiladas with avocado-cilantro "cream" sauce （scare quotes mine）; Crowd-pleasing Tex Mex casserole， Our Favorite Veggie Burger。 The Lentil Walnut loaf that some folks claim is "better than traditional meat loaf" is well。。。not better or worse， but definitely different。 I felt it could have had better flavor， and I think I'd make the lentils in curry next time。 I prefer more of the recipes in Oh She Glows Every Day: Simply Satisfying Plant-Based Recipes to Keep You Glowing from the Inside Out， Liddon's second book， but this is a solid cookbook for anyone looking to get into plant-based cookbook。 。。。more

It had some potential， and there are a few I want to try。 Maybe one day I'll get it again and get more out of it， but at the moment I'm very much not vegan enough。 It had some potential， and there are a few I want to try。 Maybe one day I'll get it again and get more out of it， but at the moment I'm very much not vegan enough。 。。。more

Solid A+。Mouth watering recipes for anyone。Spectacular photos。Impressive overall。Wonderful gift for any vegan or omnivore。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 great effort。 i wish a white person could manage a cooking career without using recipes from people of color， though， where they pay little genuine homage to the cultures they’re borrowing from。there’s a “chakra” caesar salad & then she only talks about her father in the recipe description。 perhaps a recipe with greens would nourish the Heart chakra， in which case， wouldn’t it be a Heart chakra caesar salad？ or did she use the Sanskrit word to be trendy？a noodle bowl with both an option for a Th great effort。 i wish a white person could manage a cooking career without using recipes from people of color， though， where they pay little genuine homage to the cultures they’re borrowing from。there’s a “chakra” caesar salad & then she only talks about her father in the recipe description。 perhaps a recipe with greens would nourish the Heart chakra， in which case， wouldn’t it be a Heart chakra caesar salad？ or did she use the Sanskrit word to be trendy？a noodle bowl with both an option for a Thai and a Japanese sauce， minus any information about Thai or Japanese culture。 there’s no mention of an elder she learned the recipes from。 just vibes。 an “African” peanut stew？ from which country did she learn this recipe？ which Mexican elder told her to put strawberries in guacamole or call that God forsaken Tex-Mex dish a casserole？ there are multiple recipes that include squash with no mention of indigenous American usages of the plant。 there’s falafel made with CANNED chickpeas。and where in this immunity boosting tomato sauce （made with CANNED tomatoes） are the immunity boosting ingredients？ onion & garlic can boost the immune system， though it’s better for the body to consume them raw， if the intention is to truly boost the immune system。 people need to know these things。 it’s simply disheartening。 additionally， there’s plain misinformation in the book， such as edamame being a “fancy” word for soybeans。 no， Angela。 edamame is the Japanese word for a specific preparation of soybeans。 there’s lots of un-cited information about nutrition in the introduction， as well。i couldn’t stomach the concept of finishing this book。 the breakfast recipes were nice， though。 。。。more

I enjoyed the process of reading this - the photos and recipes made me want to try the latter out asap， and I even took out my （old and under-used） blender to make a few smoothies。 But the results didn't live up to the hype much of the time - it tasted okay but also too much like how people who don't like vegetarian food think veg food would taste （which is not the case for my favourite vegetarian food bloggers like minimalist baker and cookieandkate）。There were some good ones - I did like some I enjoyed the process of reading this - the photos and recipes made me want to try the latter out asap， and I even took out my （old and under-used） blender to make a few smoothies。 But the results didn't live up to the hype much of the time - it tasted okay but also too much like how people who don't like vegetarian food think veg food would taste （which is not the case for my favourite vegetarian food bloggers like minimalist baker and cookieandkate）。There were some good ones - I did like some of the soups and I intend to continue trying out some other recipes from the book。 So far， though， I have only copied one recipe over to my paprika app （Eat Your Greens Detox Soup）。 （Oh， I also enjoyed the savoury oatmeal-lentil breakfast， but it's one of those great ideas that don't really require a recipe。） 。。。more

As a non-vegan， I was thoroughly impressed with the recipes。 Everything I made was delicious。 Love that each recipe had a full page picture to accompany it， too。

J。 ，

I really wanted to like this one but there was only one recipe out of the whole book that looked even appetizing to me。

My favourite cook book。

I have been vegan for almost 5 years now。 This was the first cookbook I bought， and still use it every week！ Angela's personal story was an important touch， allowing many readers who have had eating disorders or issues with body image/relatio ship with foods。 I highly recommend for vegans or non vegans alike， I haven't found a recipe I didn't like or enjoy yet！ I have been vegan for almost 5 years now。 This was the first cookbook I bought， and still use it every week！ Angela's personal story was an important touch， allowing many readers who have had eating disorders or issues with body image/relatio ship with foods。 I highly recommend for vegans or non vegans alike， I haven't found a recipe I didn't like or enjoy yet！ 。。。more

Danielle Shroyer ，

A good basic cookbook for those new to exploring vegan and vegetarian options。 If you’ve been around a while， you may find most of the recipes a little uninspiring。 I didn’t find much new in here to save or try， but I can see how it would be a good beginning point。

Hali Davidson ，

I have a *lot* of vegan cookbooks， but many of them fall into the "okay but I have to get this and this and this for that recipe" category。 This is not one of those cookbooks。 When I can't figure out what to make， but have a few staple vegetables on hand， I know I can pick up this book and find something fun and new to make。 Seriously， if you're vegan， you ought to purchase this， particularly if you're the kind who's bad about meal prepping and grocery shopping with specific recipes in mind。 I have a *lot* of vegan cookbooks， but many of them fall into the "okay but I have to get this and this and this for that recipe" category。 This is not one of those cookbooks。 When I can't figure out what to make， but have a few staple vegetables on hand， I know I can pick up this book and find something fun and new to make。 Seriously， if you're vegan， you ought to purchase this， particularly if you're the kind who's bad about meal prepping and grocery shopping with specific recipes in mind。 。。。more

Gorgeous photography which made it worth the read。 Pantry staples and equipment section is a bit of a yawn。 Some of the “recipes” are for smoothies， etc。 — and who really needs a recipe？ Some interesting dishes like the peanut noodle bowl （yum） and some new ideas for me to try。
