Viac o knihe

You don't need to be a vegetarian to enjoy a plant-based diet! With over 100 recipes, the New York Times bestselling author of Dinner: A Love Story introduces a "weekday vegetarian" approach, focusing on vegetable-based meals during the week while reserving meaty indulgences for the weekend. Realizing her family needed to reduce meat consumption for health and environmental reasons, she shares how to engage loved ones with enticing meat-free dishes. The cookbook features "Hooks" that make vegetarian meals irresistible, such as spiced Crispy Chickpeas, Pizza Dough Croutons, and Sweet Chili Glaze. It also includes "Next-Level Sauces" like Vegan Caesar, Shakedown Pesto, and Yogurt-Harissa, along with "Side Dishes That Make Everything Special," such as Yogurt Flatbread. Organized by meal type, it offers a variety of recipes including Pizza Salad with White Beans, Cauliflower Cutlets with Ranch Dressing, and Squash and Black Bean Tacos, complemented by practical tips and engaging commentary. As you explore this approach, you might find plant-based eating naturally extending into your weekends, just like the author's family!
