The book: *explains the sorts of staples you'll need in the kitchen. *provides recipes that are extremely straightforward to prepare. *offers a complete nutritional guide to vegan food so the reader can be assured that they understand their protein requirements, and do get the right mix of vitamins, minerals and food groups. *explains the different protein supplements - such as tofu, soya, t.v.p. Recipes cover a wide range of dishes and meal types from breakfasts to snacks, lunches, dinner and entertaining. The recipes themselves are excellent and very much from a British tradition of 'good old fashioned' cooking.

The recipes in The Part-time Vegan are straightforward, feature readily available ingredients and are, of course, delicious, because they are based on the best simple, natural flavours that nature has to offer. As well as providing recipes for midweek and weekend breakfasts, lunches and main meals, the book covers why being a part-time vegan is a great approach to health - when we balance vegan recipes with high-quality sources non-processed meat, fish and dairy.
