The recipes are protein-packed, delicious, and not very fussy to make (so easy!). Some of my favorites so far are the tangy broccoli salad, the crunchy rainbow salad, and the “cheesy” cauliflower soup. Bodybuilder or not–this is a fantastic resource for anyone looking to incorporate more plant-based meals into their diets without sacrificing protein goals. I collect cookbooks, and this one is absolutely one of my favorites.

My husband and I have been cooking 80% of our meals for the past 2 years from this cookbook and it has been great. We are not vegan and we rarely cooked vegan before this book. We still haven’t converted to veganism but we are really grateful for how this book incorporates vegetables into our diet. The sauces/dressings are packed full of goodness and are incredibly tasty. All of our lab results from our doctors continue to be very positive whereas some of our friends who are vegan continue to have deficits in certain areas of their nutrition. I would say many of the recipes are pretty quick and easy but there are definitely some more labor intensive ones if you dare to go there. The book is well laid out and straightforward. I like the sample weekly plans + shopping list at the beginning of the book – it eliminates some of the barrier to starting on the journey of eating more plant based. I would highly recommend this book to anyone that is looking to eat healthier.

I really enjoyed the information presented in this book. Samantha has done a wonderful job putting together an easy to understand book for individuals to be able to live a clean plant based lifestyle while still training and trying to pack on muscle.
