The Complete Plant Based Cookbook For Beginners: 550 Plant-Based Healthy Diet Recipes To Cook Quick & Easy Meals

This cookbook is jam packed with recipes that are easy to execute. There are so many recipes for each meal and the ones we have tried have been packed with flavor. We also love that there are snack and sauces making it easy to adapt to a plant based diet. One more bonus is that the nutrition facts are listed per serving for each recipe making it easier to track if you are tracking your diet. I would highly recommend this cookbook if you are just starting out on a plant based diet.

Tons of recipes, from what I found so far, they sound great! I can’t wait to try so many of them! I’m not a beginner at cooking plant based meals for my husband and I but we are having my non vegan mother in law coming to stay with us for a month and I want to have options, and have her use the book to (hopefully get inspired by the author’s story to plant based diet). I wish there were a few pictures included with some of the meals in the book because I am like a kid and like to look at pictures :) but nonetheless a very good price for so many good recipes. I know how much work went into this and I appreciate the nutritional facts for each recipe.

This cookbook is great for beginner vegans or at home cooks. The cookbook has a lot of familiar recipes, but also offer a wide variety of recipes you may not have tried before. There are tons of recipes, so you are likely to not get bored. The reason I did not go with a full 5 stars is because the formatting is not always consistent (some words are not bolded in the titles, things like that). And, out of the 5 recipes I picked to try out, there was one that had a missing ingredient (though, it was pretty obvious what the missing ingredient was, I just had to guess the amount to add and the recipe turned out well). All to say, I would recommend for a beginner vegan or a person who just wants to add variety to their diet. The recipes are easy to follow and you will likely have the ingredients on hand (especially if you are vegan), which is always a plus for me.

I have really enjoyed the Plant Based Cookbook for Beginners and here are some of the reasons why. I too want to eat healthier and Jordan Worthens' introduction and information regarding eating plant based was very inspiring making me want to jump right in and try recipes. The format of the recipe pages makes it easy to read and pick a dish that sounds yummy to make. After making a few of the recipes I found that because they are straight forward and well written I can see using this book often. Another nice feature is at the bottom of each recipe is a nutritional breakdown which is handy since I have to count my carbs. I use to grab my recipes off the internet but now I like having this cookbook on my counter as a reminder to stay on track with my eating and accessibility for daily use.

This book delivers what it promises - there are a bunch of plant based recipes with simple instructions. I also appreciate that they included nutritional information for each recipe. However, it just isn't very user-friendly. There isn't a single picture in the whole book, which makes it very hard to pick a recipe to try. There is also very little organization to this book. The order of the recipes feels random, and makes it very hard to find specific recipes. For example, if you open up the book to the "Legumes" section, you will find salads, stews, bean dips, and buddah bowls all mixed together on one page. The author could have split these recipes into separate sections and made the book much easier to use. This book isn't awful, but there are much better options out there. I will be giving this cookbook away.

We started to eat more plant based products and found this book on Amazon. It was highly recommended based on all the reviews. To be transparent, this product was also a sample for us to try out and provide an honest review of it. We have tried 4 recipes from the cookbook and so far we really like them. While some instructions were a little vague, anyone can infer and be able to cook and replicate the recipes. Overall, the food turned out amazing and many of the recipes are not complicated.

I’ve recently started doing some research about nutrition. I’ve been on so many diets and they’re never sustainable. Tbh, all they have done is help me drop weight that I inevitably gain back. I suffer from iron deficiencies. I’m starting to learn that nutrition plays a huge role in how are bodies feel and perform. I’ve decided to go vegan but I’m slowly eliminating things from my diet. I’ve already eliminated, alcohol, red meat and pork. This cookbook really helped to explore all the possibilities of vegan recipes.

This is a great cookbook for healthy recipes, even if you don’t follow a plant-based diet. I personally am not plant-based but try to eat some meals that are veggie and non-meat focused. Some recipes are even easy to add meat to, if you prefer. This book covers everything from breakfast to side dishes to dessert. But the big one for me is all the sauce and condiment recipes! I love being able to make them at home. My only issue is there are no pictures.
