A restorative bowl of vegetarian ramen sent Lukas Volger on a quest
to capture the full flavour of all the one-bowl meals that are the
rage today but in vegetarian form. With the bowl as organiser, the
possibilities for improvisational meals full of seasonal produce
and herbs are nearly endless. Volger's ramen explorations led him
from a simple bowl of miso ramen to a glorious summer ramen with
corn broth, tomatoes, and basil. From there, he went on to the
Vietnamese noodle soup pho, with combinations like caramelised
spring onions, peas, and baby bok choy. His edamame dumplings with
mint are served in soup or over salad, while spicy carrot dumplings
appear over toasted quinoa and kale for a rounded dinner.
Imaginative grain bowls range from ratatouille polenta to black
rice burrito with avocado. And unlike their meatier counterparts,
these dishes can be made in little time and without great expense.
Volger also includes many tips, techniques, and indispensable base
recipes perfected over years of cooking, including broths, handmade
noodles, sauces, and garnishes.

After vegan chef Lindsay S. Nixon wrapped up her popular cookbook
The Happy Herbivore Cookbook last year, she went back to her
kitchen in her new home of St. Maarten. Island living encouraged
her to come up with simpler recipes, which led her to create a
follow-up cookbook with a focus on recipes that bring tasty back to
quick-and-easy. Now, in Nixon's much-anticipated follow-up
cookbook, Everyday Happy Herbivore, readers will see, once again,
that just because plant-based eating is optimal for health, that
doesn't mean it has to be expensive or time-consuming. Everyday
Happy Herbivore will include more than 175 doable recipes-recipes
that are so quick and easy, you could cook three healthy meals from
scratch every day. Each of Nixon's recipes are made with wholesome,
easy-to-find, fresh ingredients and include no added fats. With
additional notes indicating recipes that are ideal for preparing
ahead of time and those you can whip up with just a few dollars,
Everyday Happy Herbivore will be the must-have cookbook for anyone
desiring a healthier, happier menu!
This is the ultimate DIY pantry book, doing double duty with
recipes for vegan staples, plus ideas on how to use them as
building blocks in both new and classic recipes. Many cooks prefer
to make their own basics rather than buy expensive store versions,
which are often loaded with additives and preservatives. These easy
recipes make it easy to stock a home pantry. Enjoy milks, cheeses,
bacon, burgers, sausages, butter, and vegan Worcestershire sauce in
your favourite dishes, and then try delicious recipes using the
staples. Sample Bahn Mi, Sausage Biscuits, Meaty- Cheesy Pizza,
Milk Shakes, Jambalaya - even Jerky and Lemon Meringue Pie. With
more than 150 recipes and 50 colour photos, this will become an
indispensable cookbook for vegans - and everyone else who enjoys
animal-free food.

fighting snacks that are good for you too. Many can be made in a
matter of minutes; others can be kept ready in the fridge and even
freezer to pull out as you need. There are energy balls made with
fresh medjool dates, frozen berries and spirulina; wholegrain
muesli bars; lime and chia bars; spiced apple bites; and pumpkin
seed, almond and sour cherry bars, all packed with taste and
goodness.
