Okay, so I've been using this cookbook for about a month now and here's the real tea ☕
First off - the recipes? Chef's kiss! 🤌 I made the lentil stew last week and my non-vegan roommate asked for seconds. The instructions are super clear, which is great because I'm that person who burns toast.
The science bits surprised me - didn't expect to actually learn why certain foods help bones. Now I annoy my friends with bone health facts at brunch.
BUT... my copy arrived looking like someone used it as a cutting board? Grease stains and bent pages. Amazon replaced it no problem though.
Pro tip: The shopping list section saves so much time. My grocery bills actually went DOWN because I'm not impulse buying random ingredients anymore.
Would I recommend? 100%. Even if you're not fully plant-based (I'm not), the nutrition info alone is worth it. Just maybe buy from bookstore instead of online.
