Title: Best vegan cookbook ever!
Review: If I could only keep one cookbook – this would absolutely be my choice. The pictures of ingredients are insanely helpful and the finished products all have gorgeous photos. The recipes aren’t overly complicated but more importantly they’re delicious. The is quite possibly the best vegan cookbook ever. Also Carleigh Bodrug and her cat are adorable.

Title: Best Healthy Recipes That the WHOLE Family Will Love, Hands Down!
Review: I can’t say enough about this cookbook. This is now the new staple in my kitchen. I have Celiac, so I have to eat gluten-free. I am a very conscientious eater, but I struggle with chronic illness. My teenage daughter has autism and is very picky about what she will eat. She does not have the best diet and has gained weight due to her texture issues and medication. My husband and teenage son don’t mind eating healthy but love their meat and dairy products. My husband is ready to lose about 20 lbs. He also wants to boost his metabolism and get his hormone levels back into balance. So, all of this considered, my husband and I decided to eat a largely plant-based diet to get our family’s health back on track, and this cookbook has been our guide. After 6 weeks, we all feel so much better, and my husband is very proud that he has been able to go down two notches in his belt already!Why Should You Buy This Cookbook?(1) The recipes are incredibly delicious! We have only found two recipes that we were not wild about, and we’ve cooked through a large portion of the cookbook!(2) The ENTIRE FAMILY eats from this cookbook. Even my daughter with autism, who is SO picky, loves the recipes. When she ate the vegan lasagna and asked for seconds, I about fell out of my chair!(3) You will know most (if not all) the ingredients! Rarely will you come across an ingredient you don’t already know, and even if you don’t, you’ll find that everything is easy to find at your local grocery store. No need for expensive specialty stores! (You will also be exposed to some great substitutions that are readily available and that you wish you had known about all along.)(4) Not only are the recipes plant-based, but they are all OIL-FREE and REFINED SUGAR-FREE as well, which is just incredible. She also gives quick tips on easy substitutions if you have a nut allergy or are gluten-free like me.(5) She has an entire section of sauces with 23 recipes, and they are all astoundingly good and can be added to so many other recipes to add intense flavor without the unhealthy ingredients.(6) She has an entire dessert section as well! The Peach Crumble and Chickpea Cookie Dough are out-of-this-world.Overall, I can tell that she put a lot of thought into this cookbook. She went to incredible lengths to prove that plant-based, oil-free, gluten-free eating CAN be incredibly tasty. My husband and son are constantly amazed at how the healthier versions of recipes actually taste BETTER (ie. My teenage son told me the bean burgers were actually tastier than beef.) This is a cookbook you will bring out every week, if not every day (like our family). It is so well-worth your money.

Title: Amazing book. Perfect layout.
Review: After following Carleigh Bodrug on social media for a while, I knew I wanted to own her cookbook. PlantYou is a wonderful book with almost 150 plant-based recipes. It’s a hardcover with 288 pages and the layout is incredible. There are pictures with every recipe, both of the final product, and smaller thumbnail photos of each of the ingredients used in the recipe. It’s well written and easy to follow. There are recipes for breakfast items, smoothies, soups, sandwiches, salads, and main entrees like pastas, stir frys and more. There are many great recipes for dressings and sauces as well. There are even a bunch of desert recipes for “nice creams”, cookies, and even cocoas and lattes.Every recipe I have tried from this book has been great. It’s definitely worth having on your shelf if you are into plant-based recipes.

Title: Easy to navigate…
Review: I have had this book for about 1 month. I have made several recipes in it.I am not vegan but wanted to have a more plant based diet. It was important for me to be able to incorporate some of this in my kids diet too..(11 & 18)……soooo, on saying that, I loved everything l made.The breakfast cookies were a hit with all except my 11 yr old because she didn’t like the oatmeal but she is 11!!! They were all delicious. I made them smaller than the 8 the recipie stated it made and I freezed them too so in the am I would take 1-2 with a cup of coffee!! The Indian sauces were delicious but for my fussy kids, I pureed the sauce in my Vitamix and had this with rice…Guilty for throwing in a bit of chicken BUT the kids ate more veggies than otherwise.The lasagna is AMAZING! I did incorporate 1lb beef ( again fussy kids) but honestly they had no idea how much veggies they were eating!!! I also made the vegan risotto and vegan mozzarella…..the only non vegan stuff in the lasagna was the Parmesan cheese and beef……guys, my kids lapped this up!10 min tacos was a hit also ( they had no idea they were eating mushrooms and walnuts)…..The garden Bolognese was wonderful but again, I would puree the final product to make it a sauce and add a little meat……for my kids! I was absolutely happy with the final product but at least I am able to get my kids to eat more veggies without them even knowing!!!!The rainbow rolls with peanut sauce is yummy and light. I have made many of these and have perfected rolling rice paper in my own way!!!The peanut salad was great too and the stuffed sweet potato….So I give this the thumbs up! I loved that she had a picture for each product that went into the dish. Every recipe has a picture ( for visual people like me, that is important), easy to read. A lot of thought went into this. I am no foodie but I enjoy cooking at home and I enjoy delicious food.This book did not fail!! Absolutely recommend to those who want to experiment with plant based or just add a little more veggies to their diet or the hard core……well worth it.

Title: FANTASTIC COOKBOOK!
Review: I decided to purchase this book after reading so many positive reviews and wanting to prepare healthy foods for my family. This book is fantastic!! It’s laid out so well, and I love how the ingredients aren’t hard to find in the market. I’m not a very good cook, yet I’ve made some delicious food thanks to this book! It’s not intimidating (I’m usually overwhelmed by recipes). I’ve prepared a few of the recipes from each meal time/category and loved them all. My family loves them, too! I’m very glad I purchased this and I’m certain you will be too!

Review: I bought 2 of these books as Christmas presents but was tempted to keep one for myself even though I’ve been vegan for 7 years. This book is fantastic for the plant based novice as the recipes are kept simple with not too many ingredients, clear instructions along with lovely illustrations. Also included are nutritional facts which is of great benefit for those just starting out on the plant based journey.
