Plant Based Cooking Made Easy features over 100 life-saving, whole food plant-based recipes that are gluten-free, refined sugar & oil free, low in sodium, and full of scrumptious flavors.

Modern cutting-edge nutritional research has clearly identified the whole food plant-based diet as the single most potent force for recovering and sustaining human health. Only a diet rich in a wide variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, beans, mushrooms, nuts, berries, and seeds—and which is free of highly processed foods, laden with preservatives, refined oils, sugar, and salt—has the power to reverse many of the leading chronic diseases the world faces today, including heart disease, diabetes, obesity, high blood, autoimmune disorders, and more.

Jeffrey and Jill Dalton share the story of their own 23 year journey to plant-based transformation, one which not only empowered them to reverse their chronic health issues but also inspired them to create The Whole Food Plant Based Cooking Show—and now this cookbook! Drawing on their many years of experience with plant-based cooking, they spell out in detail all the appliances and preparations needed to set up your own kitchen for plant-based success.

With over 100 recipes based on the best available plant-based nutritional research, Plant Based Cooking Made Easy covers all the bases, offering wholesome takes on everything from common comfort foods like hot dogs, macaroni & cheese, pizza, waffles, brownies, and double stuff Oreo cake, to international favorites like massaman curry, West African peanut sauce, sweet potato flatbread, mushroom bourguignon, tikka masala, hummingbird cake and more.

Learn to easily make tasty gluten-free breads, muffins, cakes, pies, and cookies as well as plant-based cheeses and ice creams, salad dressings, and hummus, all in the comfort of your own kitchen. And if you should happen to get stuck, each recipe has a corresponding step-by-step video, easily accessible with a QR code scanner on your mobile device.
