Plants have never tasted this good!
Regardless of your food philosophy, one thing we can all agree on is that we need to eat more plants. In Eat More Vegan, Luke shares 100 plant-based recipes that are packed with flavour, full of vibrant colour and bursting with nutrition.
Try his zingy breakfasts, such as sweet potato rostis with Indian avo smash, cauliflower and 'chorizo' scramble with spicy green sauce, or peanut butter and pumpkin spice pancakes. Salads, soups and sautés for any time of the day including an amazing avocado salad with macadamia pesto, charred broccolini with chilli and lemon, and spicy peanut stew. There are more substantial roasts, bakes and barbecued dishes, such as hasselback sweet potatoes, sensational jackfruit souvlaki, tempura tacos, and hemp and beetroot burgers. And finish off with a wholesome treat, such as blueberry bounty bars or spiced roasted pineapple with macadamia crunch.
This is real food - it's completely gluten and grain free and there's not a packet ingredient in sight! So whether you are vegan, vegetarian or an omnivore simply looking to eat more plants, get ready to tuck into the crispiest, crunchiest and freshest vegan food you'll find.

How gorgeous is this cover, guys!? I absolutely love it with its vibrant colours, which are simply catching.
'Eat More Vegan' is made of a great quality, high-resistance paper which is perfect for the kitchen as you sometimes just can't avoid to spill something over it. I even wiped it with a damp cloth as I got some sticky stuff on it and it didn't affect the pages in any way. I was really impressed by this!
In this cookbook you can find plenty of easy to understand recipes and honestly, I think there is a dish for every occasion in there. So far, my favourite is the Cauliflower rice, I'm already addicted to it! Unfortunately, I also learnt that I definitely can't stand the taste of Jackfruit at all.
The next recipe I'll try are the Espresso Brownies as they simply combine two of my most favourite things: Coffee and Brownies. If they taste as good as they sound, I'll pretty much have a new addiction!
These recipes are so simple to follow and can be used in your every day cooking routine. It is also very handy that there is a lot of background information about the ingredients used and the various cooking procedures to be found in this book. I found this really interesting and helpful.
I've been eating more plant based for quite a while - to be fair, I've never been a big meat eater in the first place - and was really curious about this book when I first heard about it.
'Eat More Vegan' is a great way to learn more about plant based nutrition and it's also a great help to implement some of these recipes into my every day diet. I'm using a few recipes every week and have been quite happy to eat something different from my usual dishes.
I can definitely recommend this recipe book by Luke Hines to everyone who has an open mind about a plant based diet. I can just say: Try it guys, it's worth it! I had a lot of fun with cooking these dishes for sure.
