Delicious vegetarian and vegan batch cook recipes for busy people.
The phenomenal rise in the popularity of veganism, plant-based
meals and flexitarian diets means that more of us are regularly
choosing to cook meat-free dishes. Concerns about waste and budgets
have ensured that making conscious decisions about using leftovers
and root-to-shoot eating is becoming mainstream. But as traditional
batch cook recipes often lean towards meat-based meals, finding
brilliant vegetarian and vegan ideas can be tricky. That's where
The Green Batch Cook Book comes in, harnessing the vibrant fresh
flavours of fruit and vegetables in an innovative and breezy
collection of 70 meat-free recipes. Start your day with beautiful
breakfasts - Sweet Potato, Pepper and Feta Frittata, No-knead
Marmite and Cheese Loaf, Rose-pink Rhubarb and Vanilla Custard
Pancakes - or simply bake a batch of Brown Sugar Rusks and
Cranberry to eat on the run. Lazy make-ahead lunch recipes include
Garlicky Mushroom and Chestnut Sausage Rolls, Edamame and Spring
Green Pot Stickers and a simple but irresistible Broccoli, Lemon
and Almond Salad. Feeding a crowd? Check out the family-friendly
big batch chapter with tempting recipes for Mushroom, Broccoli and
Walnut Lasagne, Summer Veg Patch Risotto or Sticky Aubergine Bao
Buns with Smacked Cucumber. And if it's sweets or treats you're
after, you'll love the ridiculously easy Cornflake Florentines,
Blood Orange Upside-down Cake, tangy Lemon and Elderflower Slices
or the wild Jumbleberry Sorbet. Praise for The Batch Cook Book:

For bestselling cookbook author Hetty McKinnon, Asian cooking is
personal. McKinnon grew up in a home filled with the aromas,
sights, and sounds of her Chinese mother's cooking. These days she
strives to recreate those memories for her own family-and
yours-with traditional dishes prepared in non-traditional ways.
It's a sumptuous collection of creative vegetarian recipes
featuring pan-Asian dishes that anyone can prepare using
supermarket ingredients. Readers will learn how to make their own
kimchi, chili oil, knife-cut noodles, and dumplings. They'll learn
about the wonder that is rice and discover how Asian-inspired
salads are the ultimate crossover food. McKinnon offers tips for
stocking your modern Asian pantry and explores the role that
sweetness plays in Asian cultures. Her recipes are a celebration of
the exciting and delicious possibilities of modern Asian
cooking-from Smashed Cucumber Salad with Tahini and Spicy Oil, and
Finger-lickin' Good Edamame Beans with Fried Curry Leaves, to
Springtime Rolls with Miso Kale Pesto and Tamarind Apple Crisp.
Featuring big, powerful flavors created from simple, fresh
ingredients, these recipes are firmly rooted in the place where
east meets west and where tradition charts the journey to the
modern kitchen.
Delicious and inspiring flexitarian food for every season This is
your essential cookbook for eating with the seasons, with a feast
of over 100 recipes that make the most of fresh produce at its peak
of flavour and availability - and when it's most economical to buy.
The flavour-packed recipes are all vegetarian, and most come with a
flexitarian option showing how to include meat or seafood in
sustainable amounts, or how to make the dish fully vegan. In
spring, feast on a Rejuvenating Coconut and Spinach Broth or Spring
Vegetable Fritto Misto. Summer brings a refreshing Watermelon,
Pitta and Goat's Cheese Salad and Avocado, Pea and Mint Pasta;
autumn a comforting Baked Cauliflower Cheese Risotto or Smoky
Aubergine Chilli. The year closes with warming Winter Green Noodles
and Celeriac, Ginger and Sesame Bhajis. From barbecues and picnics
to festive feasts, each chapter also features a complete menu for
easy entertaining. This creative collection of nutritious dishes
harnesses the tastes and types of food we like to eat in each
wonderful season.
When height-of-the-season farmers' market offerings are
irresistible; when backyard gardens are exploding with what appear
to be hundreds of perfect tomatoes; or when the same old methods
for cooking green beans or corn don't offer enough flavor, Andrea
Chesman is ready with a bounty of creative recipes that bring out
the best in fresh produce.
Chesman knows what it's like to be facing pounds of perishable
vegetables, and as she developed 175 recipes that place garden
freshness center stage, she followed these guidelines: Simple.
Delicious. Harmonized with the growing seasons.
The vegetables are organized by crop-readiness, with many recipes
following the wisdom that vegetables that ripen together taste good
together. Popular techniques such as roasting and grilling bring
out the flavor in recipes such as Grilled Chicken and Asparagus
Salad, Roasted Leek Tart, Soy-Sesame Grilled Eggplant, and Maple
Roasted Carrots. Main-dish and side salads abound: Beet and New
Potato Salad, Warm Mushroom Salad, Spinach Salad with Feta and
Pecans, Everyday Tomato-Cucumber Salad. And the deep flavors of
autumn are celebrated in Braised Belgian Endives, Holiday Brussels
Sprouts with Pecans and Cranberries, and Chocolate Chip Carrot
Cake.
"Serving Up the Harvest" is an inspirational collection for
everyone who wants to enjoy fresh, local, seasonal vegetables with
every meal.

The official Demeter Cookbook presents over 200 recipes, developed
and collected by Swiss chef Hermann Spindler, for sauces, soups,
hors d'oeuvres, salads, main dishes, puddings and desserts. It also
features special recipes for casseroles and gratins, vegetables,
quark (curd cheese) dishes, grain dishes, doughs, savoury and sweet
pastries, muesli and drinks - interspersed with informative
commentary on the value of spices. Since its foundation by Rudolf
Steiner in 1924, the international biodynamic agricultural movement
has produced high-quality, 'premium organic' food that is
increasingly sought after and respected for its flavour, quality
and nutritional value. The Demeter brand certifies that the product
concerned has been grown and processed using verified biodynamic
methods. Hermann Spindler has been head chef at the Lukas Klinik
for many years, where his kitchen has gained an outstanding
reputation. Alongside food preparation methods that conserve
nutritional value, imaginative presentation of dishes and freshly
prepared meals, the special nature of the Lukas cuisine is based on
the careful selection of Demeter foods, local sourcing where
possible, and seasonal use of ingredients. A selection of
Spindler's delicious lacto-vegetarian, wholefood recipes - based on
the core principles of anthroposophic nutrition - are collected
here in an easy-to-use presentation.
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.
