Valeria ，

Looking forward to buying a copy of this book to incorporate these recipes in my weekly rotations。

Aubrey ，

Really enjoyed the new perspective of the Whole Foods plant based lifestyle for endurance athletes。 Looking forward to trying some recipes。 Wish it had pictures of the items。

Jana ，

A lot of yummy sounding recipes！ Looking forward to trying them。 The cookies look really good but call for one cup of sugar - really？ That seems a bit over the top。 At any rate， I found a lot of other recipes I’m excited to try。

Wendy ，

Reading through all the written parts of a bunch of my cookbooks today。 This one was by far the most informative with the most realistic meals。

Natalie Schirmacher ，

I really enjoyed this cookbook because for the first time there are recipes that are specifically tailored to athletes on a plant based diet who don't have time for all of the frills。 These recipes seem actually manageable and doable and it makes me really excited to be in the kitchen。 I really enjoyed this cookbook because for the first time there are recipes that are specifically tailored to athletes on a plant based diet who don't have time for all of the frills。 These recipes seem actually manageable and doable and it makes me really excited to be in the kitchen。 。。。more

Some good advice， but as a vegetarian for many years who sufficiently meal plans already， no meals stood out as new it exciting to me

The recipes are solid。 Each can be oil-free， which has becomes a thing for me（damn age and genetic high cholesterol）。 The slow cooker Refried beans are hands down THE BEST I have made and don’t require any sautéing of stuff before you put it in the crock pot。 It’s a thing with me: what’s the point of poking something before you cook it and dirtying another pan。 Because the focus is athletes， the recipes are really solid in the balanced protein department and there are very few weird ingredients The recipes are solid。 Each can be oil-free， which has becomes a thing for me（damn age and genetic high cholesterol）。 The slow cooker Refried beans are hands down THE BEST I have made and don’t require any sautéing of stuff before you put it in the crock pot。 It’s a thing with me: what’s the point of poking something before you cook it and dirtying another pan。 Because the focus is athletes， the recipes are really solid in the balanced protein department and there are very few weird ingredients that will sit in your pantry。 The Calorie Bomb Cookies are bomb。 。。。more

I can't exactly say I'm finished with this cookbook， since I am still using it and relying on it heavily - but having tried a little over a third of the recipes， I feel like now is a good time to write a review。I've been vegan for about 8 months now， and one of my reasons for turning so was what I had been reading about the amazing benefits for recovery and athletic performance。 As a runner， I really wanted to drill down into my nutrition as a vegan， and get the most help with meal prep， plannin I can't exactly say I'm finished with this cookbook， since I am still using it and relying on it heavily - but having tried a little over a third of the recipes， I feel like now is a good time to write a review。I've been vegan for about 8 months now， and one of my reasons for turning so was what I had been reading about the amazing benefits for recovery and athletic performance。 As a runner， I really wanted to drill down into my nutrition as a vegan， and get the most help with meal prep， planning， and also get a general understanding of macro/micro nutrients。 This cookbook does all of the above！Written by vegan athletes and with a forward by Rich Roll （a well-known vegan triathlete）， the nutritional and/or lifestyle information on going vegan was super rich - most of these types of books have all this in the introductory chapters， but I especially appreciated the writers' concise approach。 Without boring the reader to death， they go into the fundamentals of why a plant-based lifestyle is so good for you， meal prep， nutritional breakdowns， and tips for cooking oil-free。Now， for the recipes: there literally hasn't been one in here that wasn't delicious。 Some of them took more time than others （stuffed spaghetti squash， nut butter & jelly cookies， mushroom lasagna， better-than-takeout curry） while others were very fast （pineapple & black bean veggie bowl， basic dal， majority of the salads， sheet pan veggies， avocado toast， etc。）。 Nothing ever cost me more than around $15-20 per ingredient list， and I really liked how the authors tried to stick to the basics - even the sauces were ridiculously easy， and based on simple， whole foods。 I also really appreciated the layout of the book: it's divided into breakfast， lunches/dinners， salads， sauces， smoothies and recovery/energy drinks， and desserts。 It made it really simple to flip to the section I needed。I'll say the ONLY thing that didn't work out for me was the peanut butter tempeh。 I've never heard of this seasoning for tempeh before， and mine came out really brittle and （slightly） burnt tasting。 I just don't think it was a good combo。 That's my only critique！I continue to turn to this cookbook when planning my weeknight meals。 I highly recommend it to anyone wanting to cook vegan food creatively and on the cheap， or for active people looking to drill into their nutrition more。 。。。more

Jeremy LaLonde ，

A great recipe book for anyone whose already， or looking to become， plant-based。 Incredible recipes and packed full of interesting and practical information！

Rachel Brune ，

I’m just starting to transition to a more “vegetable intentional” lifestyle， and found this book to be super helpful。 Lays out not only a number of tasty recipes， but also talks about the science behind fueling athletes， and none require you attend a culinary institute to cook！

Austin ，

I've never reviewed a straight-up cookbook， but here it is。 The recipes were for the most part new to me， interesting， and exciting。 The additional tips， the make-your-own recipes， and the meal-planning suggestions added a lot to consider and play with。 I stole a couple of them for later use， but the high-point for me was the suggestions of crusting tofu with crushed nuts。 I've never reviewed a straight-up cookbook， but here it is。 The recipes were for the most part new to me， interesting， and exciting。 The additional tips， the make-your-own recipes， and the meal-planning suggestions added a lot to consider and play with。 I stole a couple of them for later use， but the high-point for me was the suggestions of crusting tofu with crushed nuts。 。。。more

I like how they use a diverse range & chemistry of vegan protien sources。

Nathalia Rojas。 ，

That tofu pistachio recipe is SOOOO good I’ve made it MANY times。 I had trouble finding filling vegan food and this one hit the mark！ I wish there were more recipes but I like the variety。 I also appreciate the labels at the top like Gluten Free。

Rhonda ，

A good general book on starting out cooking vegan with lots of good descriptions about pantry， kitchen and planning， and a variety of recipes。 But for a book for athletes worried about protein， it had NO information， and I mean NO info， on how much protein an athlete （or normal healthy person） needs each day and how much protein is in each recipe。 This omission is just inexcusable。 And I was deeply shocked to read the authors took a multivitamin。 If you can't get the right vitamins from your dai A good general book on starting out cooking vegan with lots of good descriptions about pantry， kitchen and planning， and a variety of recipes。 But for a book for athletes worried about protein， it had NO information， and I mean NO info， on how much protein an athlete （or normal healthy person） needs each day and how much protein is in each recipe。 This omission is just inexcusable。 And I was deeply shocked to read the authors took a multivitamin。 If you can't get the right vitamins from your daily food， something is very wrong。 I couldn't help thinking that a small piece of lean grilled meat would be a great addition to some recipes。So best to ignore it is called the no meat athlete cookbook， and just focus on the interesting veg recipes and the blueprint approach， and pick and choose what suits you。 I liked the "a grain， a green and a bean"。 Not a fan of oils myself， so liked the oil-free options。 Some people might put bread and pasta in the processed food category and avoid them。 。。。more

Loved it。 Great ideas and explanation of “how to do”。。。 🥬🧄🥯

More recipes than i know what to do with！ Garlicky rosemary potato soup， black eyed pea and collard stew with spicy tahini， Caribbean coconut collards and sweet potatoes， tahini green beans， cumin and citrus roasted carrots， Sesame turmeric oven fries， farro tabouli。

Great read！This book did change how I view sports nutrition。 Book is easy to read and keeps reader engaged。 The only thing I would have liked is a week or two of meal planing and insights on how this way of eating effects the diabetic athlete。 I recommend this book to anyone trying to improve health and add heathy recipes to their life。 I would have given a 5 star if a meal plan would have been included along with more emphasis on strength and conditioning rather than endurance training。 Overall Great read！This book did change how I view sports nutrition。 Book is easy to read and keeps reader engaged。 The only thing I would have liked is a week or two of meal planing and insights on how this way of eating effects the diabetic athlete。 I recommend this book to anyone trying to improve health and add heathy recipes to their life。 I would have given a 5 star if a meal plan would have been included along with more emphasis on strength and conditioning rather than endurance training。 Overall a great addition to any sports training or diet regime。 Look forward to reading more from this author and topic as interest and studies increase in this field。 。。。more

What's not to like， the recipes aren't too complicated。 The nutrition and rationale is thoroughly explained in the intense introduction。。。 As a fairly recent Vegan （2 months。。 oh yeah） I did a couple months of transitioning and dabbled in my wife's recipes the whole last year （all delicious） since I train pretty hard and had SOOO many preconceived notions of deficiencies and ultimate perils should I go all in。 Well 2 months later， I can run every day should I choose to （vs 3x max per week due to What's not to like， the recipes aren't too complicated。 The nutrition and rationale is thoroughly explained in the intense introduction。。。 As a fairly recent Vegan （2 months。。 oh yeah） I did a couple months of transitioning and dabbled in my wife's recipes the whole last year （all delicious） since I train pretty hard and had SOOO many preconceived notions of deficiencies and ultimate perils should I go all in。 Well 2 months later， I can run every day should I choose to （vs 3x max per week due to joints/inflammation）， tendinitis in elbows/shoulders。。。etc disappeared。 Strength is holding/increasing in all my lifts （+60lb chin ups are now +98lb for 2 reps。。。which feels insanely good）。 Not attributing all this to the cookbook but I feel the context is key for those wanting to try it out and feel it isn't just for ultra runners and hippies who don't mind losing their 'gains'。。。 Not at all Preachy， colorful and well researched。 Nice complement to the 'Thug Kitchen' cookbook we keep checking out from the library （also highly recommend， but haven't read cover to cover like this one）。 read the intro， if you want to dive into the rabbit hole after that。。。 it's a wild ride。 。。。more

Nothing groundbreaking if you've already been eating whole foods and vegetarian/vegan for a while。 There is a solid overview of pantry necessities and menu planning。 I found some great new recipes to shake up the monotony， and appreciated the spice mix options。 Nothing groundbreaking if you've already been eating whole foods and vegetarian/vegan for a while。 There is a solid overview of pantry necessities and menu planning。 I found some great new recipes to shake up the monotony， and appreciated the spice mix options。 。。。more

I loved this book！ Packed with useful information， easy to read and delicious sounding recipes made with easily available ingredients （mostly！）。 Can’t wait to get cooking。

Love this recipe book。 I wish I could give it more than just 5 stars。 As a newbie to the whole plant based diet recipe genre， I learned so much from this book and the many recipes I tried were amazing。 I mostly loved the informative nature of the book and the minimal ingredients and prep time needed to make some of the most delicious meatless， dairy-less meals I've tasted。 Love this recipe book。 I wish I could give it more than just 5 stars。 As a newbie to the whole plant based diet recipe genre， I learned so much from this book and the many recipes I tried were amazing。 I mostly loved the informative nature of the book and the minimal ingredients and prep time needed to make some of the most delicious meatless， dairy-less meals I've tasted。 。。。more

Great companion book to No Meat Athletic。

Elaine Bearden ，

Not as useful as Anita Bean's but has some good advice like using the WHOLE squash for soup， and not tossing the insides and seeds。 Would like to spend some more time with chapter 10 - meal planning。 Maybe look for one with meat， too。 Not as useful as Anita Bean's but has some good advice like using the WHOLE squash for soup， and not tossing the insides and seeds。 Would like to spend some more time with chapter 10 - meal planning。 Maybe look for one with meat， too。 。。。more

Vooral lezen voor de recepten， het eerste deel is vooral over de persoonlijke zoektocht van de auteurs
