The hunger for thoughtful, wholesome and truly delicious vegetarian
recipes is only increasing, especially now that we all know that eating
more veg is good for our health -- and the planet. In The Magnificent
Book of Vegetables, trained chef and food writer Alice Hart shares over
80 tantalising recipes that not only taste great, but will leave you
feeling amazing.
As a trained nutritionist, Alice knows the importance of
vegetable-centric, wholefood eating, but at the same time understands
that most of us lead busy lives and shop at our local supermarkets. As
such, many of the recipes in this book are uncomplicated yet big on
flavour, and really make the vegetable the hero of every dish. Alice
shares advice on the best way to plan your shop throughout the seasons
so that nothing goes to waste, even suggesting tinned, pickled or frozen
swaps where possible. Start the day right with a Green quinoa breakfast
bowl, whip up a batch of Kale and potato hand pies with caraway seeds
for the park, and warm up a dreary winter's evening with Chard and black
bean chilli with Jalepeno-cornbread crust.
Featuring do-ahead elements to make your meal preparation easier, tips
on when certain vegetables are in season, and fad-free advice, The
Magnificent Book of Vegetables will prove that, with the right recipe,
even a humble cabbage or beetroot can be exciting and delicious.
