A great kitchen companion... Peggy Brusseau shares over 100 simple, tasty recipes to feed you and your family, along with practical and reassuring advice on vegan eating, accompanied by beautiful photographs to inspire you' * People's Friend *
Warning: the mouth-wateringly delicious meals stylishly presented and gorgeously photographed in this book will not make you feel better. Not immediately. If you're like me, they will make you ravenously hungry! And keen to hit the kitchen. Fortunately, the very simple instructions will help you quickly solve this problem, even if your cooking skills are as basic as my own. You will then feel better, and the longer you follow this book, the better you will feel. In her engaging, informative style, Peggy Brusseau explains why. She explores the nutritional benefits of the vegan diet, which is now taking the world by storm. You'll even learn why it's also better for your children, and potentially, for your pets. As a veterinarian, I was pleased to see pets included. And as a super busy person, I was also pleased to see the time indications given, to prepare each recipe. Whether as a stylish gift for a food-focused friend, or for personal use, I highly recommend this easy-to-read and enjoyable text -- Professor Andrew Knight, Fellow of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons
If you are considering shifting to a plant-based diet, The Contented Vegan will give you both the 'Why?' and the 'How?' of becoming a vegan, and the recipes should make you a very contented one -- Peter Singer, AC; Ira W. DeCamp Professor of Bioethics; Princeton University Center for Human Values
A fabulous introduction to the plant-based lifestyle! The Contented Vegan includes everything you need to know but didn't know where to ask. Peggy has raised her family entirely on a vegan diet and shares the practical and tasty recipes that have kept them well for more than thirty years. She knows what she's talking about. And she gets you thinking: calmly introducing the environmental, ethical and human health issues that have now reached global crisis point but which can be mitigated by adopting a plant-based diet. If you are moving toward a plant-based diet (and I hope you are), this is the book for you -- William J. Ripple, PhD; Richardson Endowed Chair and Distinguished Professor of Ecology; Director, Alliance of World Scientists; Oregon State University
There are so many reasons to shift to a vegan diet, so who better to guide you than Peggy, who has been vegan for 30 years. The book outlines the profound benefits of adopting a vegan diet for planetary health and the non-human animals we share this planet with. The good news is that a healthy whole food vegan diet is one of the healthiest choices we can make for our own health and the health of our families. A healthy vegan diet can help prevent and manage some of our most common chronic diseases. At the same time it is a hugely tasty and enjoyable way of eating. Peggy busts some common myths, taking the worry away and making your transition to a vegan diet easy, healthy and sustainable -- Dr Shireen Kassam, Consultant Haematologist and Lifestyle Medicine Physician, Founder and Director of Plant-Based Health Professionals UK
