The
original “Julia Child of plant-based cooking” teams up with her
daughter to offer a multigenerational celebration of the power of a
plant-based lifestyle—with 125 recipes.
The
Esselstyn family is three generations plant-based strong. Encouraged to
create recipes without dairy and meat when her husband’s research
pointed to the impact of diet on reversing disease, Ann Esselstyn began
feeding her family creative, plant-based meals more than thirty years
ago. She and her daughter, Jane Esselstyn, are bolts of energy from the
same strike of lightning and have become fierce, big-spirited advocates
for a plant-based lifestyle, reaching hundreds of thousands of fans
through their previous books and their popular YouTube channel.
At
eighty-six and fifty-six, respectively, Ann and Jane are pictures of
ageless health and vibrancy and spend their days hiking, doing yoga,
gardening, cooking, and spreading the message that diet is the key to
living a happy, strong, and disease-free life. Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior
explains how women everywhere can pass on this important legacy in
their own families through the generations, and illuminates how plants
powerfully support a woman’s body and mind. This cookbook is a call to
action and a message of hope for any and all to be Plant-Based Women
Warriors filled with vitality and in control of their own health.
Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior
includes more than 125 recipes made for women on the go, from Apple
Flax Flapjacks and Black Ramen Bowls, to Portobello Sliders with Green
Goddess Sauce, to Mint Chip Outta Sight Brownies. And it includes
big-flavored dinners like Sweet Potato and Cashew Ricotta Lasagna and
Plant-Based Pad Thai, sure to tempt even the most reluctant
vegetable-focused eaters. Full of life, captivating energy, and
delicious food, this cookbook brings readers to the Esselstyn family
table, where plants and joy are at the center.
