Easy, delicious, and creative plant-based snacks from viral TikTok sensation Halle Burns a.k.a. @BalleHurns, perfect for full-time vegans and plant-curious, healthy eaters.
Halle Burns was still in college when she started posting viral videos about plant-based cooking on TikTok, and now millions of fans follow her for soothingly narrated content and easy, sharable recipe ideas. Since Halle was on a student budget at the time and often only had her trusty air fryer to do the actual cooking, she needed to become creative to fulfill her cravings in the simplest way possible.
Recipes had to be attainable and foolproof too, which meant using affordable ingredients, accessible in every grocery store. They needed to be quick to prepare using as few ingredients as possible, like her two-ingredient Tofu Dough or her Spicy Citrus Vinaigrette, which can be made in advance and used to jazz up any vegetable. And when you’re in the mood for carbs but don’t have bread in the kitchen, Emergency Bread can be baked in a flash in a microwave oven.
Now, Call Me Vegan offers even more essential, lifesaving (and time-saving) recipes for every occasion that you won’t find anywhere else. Her Snacks that Smack chapter includes Rice Paper Bacon Snack Strips, Kale Puffs, Crunchy Mushroom Crisps, and her spicy Angry Edamame. There are breakfast recipes like Cinnamon Sugar Tortilla Bowl and Chunky Cocoa-Banana Stovetop Granola. Of course, there are main dishes too like Lasagna Roll-Ups, Mushroom Pulled Pork, and Cheesy Vegan Mac. There are also basics like Mixed Berry Chia Jam, Instant Plant Milk, and Tofu Cream Cheese, along with tips for stocking your pantry and essential kitchen tools—making this the perfect book for plant-based lifestyle newcomers and longtime vegans who are searching for easy ways to be more adventurous in the kitchen.
Combine the surprising truth about brain food with the cutting-edge science of brain metabolism to achieve extraordinary improvements to your emotional, cognitive, and physical health.
Are you struggling with attention problems, mood swings, food obsession, or depression? Whatever the issue, you have far more control over your thoughts, feelings, and behavior than you realize. Although medications may bring some relief, in Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind, Dr. Georgia Ede reveals that the most powerful way to change brain chemistry is with food, because that’s where brain chemicals come from in the first place.
In this provocative, illuminating guide, Dr. Ede explains why nearly everything we think we know about brain-healthy diets is wrong. We've been told the way to protect our brains is with superfoods, supplements, and plant-based diets rich in whole grains and legumes, but the science tells a different story: not only do these strategies often fail, but some can even work against us. The truth about brain food is that meat is not dangerous, vegan diets are not healthier, and antioxidants are not the answer.
Change Your Diet, Change Your Mind will empower you to:
- understand how unscientific research methods drive fickle nutrition headlines and illogical dietary guidelines
- weigh the risks and benefits of your favorite foods so you can make your own informed choices about what to eat
- evaluate yourself for signs of insulin resistance—the silent metabolic disease that robs your brain of the energy it needs to thrive
- improve your mental health with a choice of moderate-carbohydrate and ketogenic diets that you can personalize to your food preferences and health goals
Drawing on a wide range of scientific disciplines including biochemistry, neuroscience, and botany, Dr. Ede will ignite your curiosity about the fascinating world of food and its role in nourishing, protecting, and energizing your brain.
