87+ plant-based dinner ideas for easy weeknight cooking. This is a cookbook for people who appreciate healthy and delicious food, and want to keep it simple.

This one-of-a-kind cookbook was dreamed up by Betsy Freeman who noticed how few of her friends like to cook. A passionate home chef who cooks to relax, she started asking why. Most told her they just don't have the time.

Betsy, who works full time herself, decided to put together a cookbook dedicated to making cooking easier; in short, recipes and tips from one busy home cook to another.

Her collection of vegan and vegetarian recipes are low-fuss, low-mess, and high in protein. She lists substitutions for harder-to-find ingredients so it's easier to make do with what you have, and suggests ways to minimize food waste. She also shares tips on how to freestyle-cook, and assemble meals without using a recipe at all.

To inspire home cooking, Betsy illustrates her book with colourful drawings that offer guidance and highlight what's special about a recipe.

The One & Done Cookbook includes:

• 48 one-pot vegetarian and vegan dinner recipes
• 13 basic recipes that can be served three different ways (as pastas, soups, grain bowls, stews, and more)
• 11 versatile sauces
• 6 great salad dressings
• 15 time-saving cooking hacks

Betsy shares her prepping and cooking tips in a voice that is wry, understanding, and smart. With this book, she gets a chance to demonstrate that cooking is as relatable as she is.

About the Author
Betsy Freeman wrote this cookbook after finding herself frustrated by the complicated recipes typical of many plant-based cookbooks, which tend to be written by professional chefs for experienced cooks. A home cook and environmentalist, she aims to break down barriers to plant-based cooking, and make it easier and more accessible to all. Betsy grew up in Colorado and learned how to whip, blend, and saute from her mother, who also passed along her love of vegetables. A professional illustrator as well as full-time product designer, she lives in San Francisco with her husband Josiah.
