In Provisions, sisters Michelle and Suzanne Rousseau share 150
recipes that pay homage to the meals and market produce that have
been farmed, sold, and prepared by Caribbean people--particularly
Caribbean women--for centuries. Caribbean food is often thought of
as rustic and unrefined, but these vibrant vegetarian dishes will
change the way we think about this diverse, exciting, and
nourishing cuisine. The pages are spiced with the sisters' fond
food memories and fascinating glimpses of the islands' histories,
bringing the region's culinary past together with creative recipes
that represent the best of Caribbean food today. With a modern
twist on traditional island ingredients and flavors, Provisions
reinvents classic dishes and presents innovative new favorites,
like Ripe Plantain Gratin, Ackee Tacos with Island Guacamole,
Haitian Riz Djon Djon Risotto, Oven-Roasted Pumpkin Flatbread, and
Caramelized Fennel and Grilled Green Guava with Mint. Stunning
full-color photographs showcase the variety of these dishes: hearty
stews, easy one-pot meals, crunchy salads, flavorful pickles,
preserves, and hot sauces, sumptuous desserts, cocktails, and more.
At once elegant, authoritative, and accessible, Suzanne and
Michelle's recipes and stories invite you to bring fresh Caribbean
flavors to your table.

The economy is tough these days. One of the first suggestions
almost any modern economist will make to help save money is to cut
meat out of your diet-- it's expensive. Now, the Shannons have
mapped out a new strategy on how to reduce waste, spend less, and
get more from your kitchen in a way that won't seem dramatic and
limiting and won't skimp on flavor.
The key to making any lifestyle a success is making sure it's
sustainable. That doesn't just mean affordable; it also means
enjoyable. Cutting corners on the bill is not synonymous with
cutting tastiness, quality, or healthfulness. With recipes,
sidebars, and extensive tips on how to stock your pantry and use
ingredients creatively, Annie and Dan show you how to approach your
kitchen anew. Most recipes result in leftover ingredients and
servings and figuring out how to get the most out of what you've
already invested in can be a crucial step to spending less and
getting more.
With recipes like Korean Kimchi BBQ Burgers, Vegan BLT Mac &
Cheez, Sesame & Soy Marinated Mushroom Steaks, and Savannah
Pecan Pie, VEGAN KITCHEN WISDOM has found a way to make eating
vegan both affordable and delicious
The Asian Vegan Kitchen is a collection of recipes from across
Asia, featuring the spices and the many tasty ingredients that have
made these cuisines popular world-wide. It caters to the growing
segment of people of all ages who have chosen to eschew animal
products, yet still want to add some global spice and excitement to
their diet.
There is one big difference between this and many other vegan
cookbooks. These dishes do not use replacement ingredients for
traditional recipes. Instead, author Hema Parekh - a noted teacher
of vegetarian cooking styles in Tokyo - has selected recipes that
were traditionally vegetarian, and have been enjoyed by diners for
decades, even centuries. In doing so, she has had to make only
minor changes, if any, for these recipes to be deliciously
appealing to everyone: vegan, vegetarian or otherwise.
Over 200 dishes have been selected to cover a wide variety of
tastes. Here readers will find vegan-ready recipes for everything
from Japanss sushi to northern Indian curries, from Vietnamese
spring rolls, to red-hot tofu, Chinese-style. Soups, noodle dishes
and some desserts are also included.
The recipes are simple, with detailed explanations. Also included
are over 50 mouth-watering photos and a comprehensive glossary.
Vegan cooking just became a lot more interesting.
A long-time vegetarian, Hema Parekh has been teaching vegetarian
cooking in Tokyo for almost twenty years. She has written two
popular books on vegetarian cooking in Japanese A Touch of Spice
and Indian Vegetarian Cooking and is working on a third.
Parekh has lived in Japan for 27 years.

the vivacious, uber-healthy founder of the FullyRaw brand. Her
ten-year success with this lifestyle inspires thousands via social
media, and her 21-day FullyRaw Video Challenge on YouTube in 2014
dramatically grew her fan base. This book shares her advice and
will correspond to a new video challenge, with meal and exercise
tips, recipes, and vivid photos. Fans will love the smoothies,
salads, main dishes, and desserts, such as Lemon-Ginger Blast,
