'BRAVE, BOLD COOKING THAT PUTS WHOLE VEGETABLES AT THE CENTRE OF YOUR PLATE. I WANT TO COOK (AND EAT) IT ALL.' - ANNA JONES More than 100 everyday, plant-based recipes, including several with QR links to online videos. Each recipe in Vegan Love has a veggie as the star, treated as you would meat or fish - so slow-cooked, baked, roasted, pan-fried or grilled. Each one also consists of the same 4 components: a big veggie (the main) + a protein side (a pulse or grain) + a sauce or cream or dressing + a topping (herbs and crunch) Many can be cooked in 30 minutes, none use less-than-healthy vegan substitutes and all elevate veggies to the next level, showing how simple and tasty they can be. Several are also accompanied by QR codes for online tutorials.
'Joe just makes the most delicious food that happens to have no meat or fish in it.' - Rachel Roddy 'When Joe Woodhouse cooks then you know that something very, very good will result from much happy time spent in the kitchen. For such a modern cook, the flavours are deep, rich and magical. That there is no meat is happily forgotten here, for this is about great cooking.' Jeremy Lee Swapping just one meat dish for a plant-based one saves greenhouse gas emissions that are equivalent to the energy used to charge your phone for two years. In this new collection of recipes, a companion to the highly acclaimed Your Daily Veg, long-time vegetarian Joe Woodhouse celebrates everyday, seasonal vegetables in a fresh, modern way with dishes that always deliver on flavour and satisfaction. Focusing either on one core vegetable or a group of similar vegetables - including celeriac, beetroot and squash, tomatoes and fennel, mushrooms, onions and leeks, and beans, pulses and seeds - the recipes follow a simple format of short ingredients lists and easy-to-follow instructions. Praise for Your Daily Veg: 'One of those cookbooks that you can tell will go into heavy rotation in your kitchen. Each chapter is given over to a different, common vegetable and how you can turn it into a satisfying and straightforward meal.' - Tim Lewis, Observer Food Monthly

From clever use of leftovers to how to get the most out of more affordable cuts of meat, this book is packed with ideas to transform even the most basic of ingredients into decadent dishes that still work with your macros.

Balancing your diet by consuming animal protein is straightforward - a chicken breast, fillet of salmon or lamb chop are nearly pure protein - but there is very little that offers the vegetarian, vegan - or flexitarian - that ease. In Plant Power, Annie Bell shows you how to source plant proteins from high-quality unrefined whole foods. She explains which foods contain protein and the simplest and most delicious ways to include a broad range in your diet to ensure that you optimise your protein consumption with no need for expensive supplements or 'fake' meats. Recipes include Three Seed Porridge with Berries for breakfast, Spicy Lentil Baked Eggs for a power brunch, a nourishing Spring Root and Farro Salad for lunch on the go and Halloumi and Pine Nut Burgers for a satisfying supper. With comfort food like Spaghetti Carbonara and bowls of energy such as Cauliflower Dhal with Coco-Lime Yogurt, Annie shows that good nutrition and good food should always go hand in hand.

The wonderful thing about making a salad is that it's a relaxed, stress-free way of cooking, with endless possibilities for customisation.

'Josh Katz cooks in technicolor. [There is an] interplay of smoke and cumin and paprika; of sugar syrups and rose and pomegranate; of great cuts of meat, and sturdy vegetables surrendering themselves to the fire.' - Jay Rayner Eating vegetables doesn't need to be boring. In fact, it can be the most joyful and satisfying way to eat. Fresh vegetables - paired with bold flavours and cooked with care - can be made the hero of every dish.

Taking inspiration from his travels, from London to North Africa and through to the Middle East, Josh's flavour combinations are unusual and create memorable dishes that everyone will enjoy. And with conventional cooking methods included for every dish, there is no reason not to try something new. Featuring over 100 recipes, there are endless possibilities for how to transform everyday vegetables into delicious, easy to prepare dishes that don't compromise on flavour.
Let your creativity blossom by cooking with botanical ingredients for stunning visuals and delicious flavors-from Loria Stern, social media star and originator of the botanical-pressed cookies trend. For most of us, "eat your flowers" might mean an edible blossom decorating a restaurant dessert on a night out. For Loria Stern, it is a way to bring her whole garden into the kitchen, to play with colors and flavors, and make every dish beautiful. She incorporates natural plant dusts, pressed and fresh blooms, and naturally vibrant herbs and veggies into her cooking for playful, gorgeous, and nourishing meals. In Eat Your Flowers, she invites you to take advantage of nature's edible bounty to create your own, providing both her own recipes (and her favorite variations) and the foundational knowledge on how to incorporate botanicals into any dish. In this celebration of natural components, Loria shares how to get brilliantly colorful results usually only acquired through chemical-laden ingredients, such as wilted purple cabbage blended with nuts into a beautiful amethyst spread that magically turns bright pink with a squeeze of lemon. But Loria's use of botanicals brings value far beyond just the visual-she is a master at incorporating them in ways that make the most of their natural flavors, enhancing each dish in taste as well as aesthetics. Blending freeze-dried raspberries into flour makes her cookie dough a sultry red and gives it a perfect tartness. Breakfasts, appetizers, salads, soups, breads, veggies, pasta, grains, meat, poultry, seafood, desserts, and beverages all get floral enhancements, with recipes including: Rainbow Coconut Granola Floral Summer Rolls Gardenscape Focaccia Botanical Steamed Tamales Filled with Hibiscus Jackfruit Basil Flower Eggplant in Hoisin Sauce Rose Pistachio Verdant Bars Flower-pressed Shortbread Cookies Prickly Pear Cocktail Eat Your Flowers shows you how to transform botanical ingredients-root to stem-into recipes that are a pleasure to make, eat, and share.
