The Vegan Divas Cookbook is a beautiful, elegant, and delicious
cookbook full of healthy, cruelty-free fare from Fernanda Capobianco,
owner of the Vegan Divas Bakery in New York City.
Fernanda began her confectionary career as a manager and owner of the
Payard Restaurant and Pastry shops in Rio de Janeiro. In The Vegan
Divas Cookbook she makes vegan cooking easy and accessible, with more
than 75 recipes for sweet and savory dishes without butter, eggs, or
refined sugars and flour, accompanied by dozens of color photographs.
Unlike many vegan cookbooks that rely heavily on grains and nuts, her
fresh and wholesome recipes offer all the benefits of a plant-based
diet, plus a light and healthy dose of flavor.
In The Vegan Divas Cookbook, Fernanda guides you step-by-step through
the basics of plant-based cooking and baking, offering tips for stocking
a healthier pantry and easy swaps to replace animal-based oils and fats
for healthier, lighter dishes. Discover the secrets to her coveted
low-cal desserts, including remakes of familiar classics like Chocolate
Chip Cookies and show-stopping treats like Lime-Raspberry Cheesecake
Pie. Go guilt-free with savory lunches like Spiced Red Lentil and
Coconut Milk Soup, and stay low-fat and full-fiber with hearty loaf
breads (some gluten-free) such as Jalapeno Corn Bread.
