This is a great way for people that are just beginning to transition to eating a whole food plant based lifestyle, to be able to make and serve some really easy and great tasting meals quickly.

If you are just starting out as WFPB (whole food plant based) or experienced in this way of eating, this is a dynamite cookbook to purchase.
Zelda B.
Real easy to find ingredients in amazing recipes. I love this book. We just got it and I’ve made 6-7 recipes! I’m addicted to it! I keep making things out of it!
Martha F.
I purchased this book for myself and started using it as the recipes were so easy to follow. The book is well written for anyone at any age to read. I bought 5 more as gifts for Christmas. One is going to my granddaughter who is studying to be a doctor. While I had wished when we were growing up we knew more about eating healthy, at least I can help educate my grandkids.
Pinkie W.
Just what I needed. I am working hard on being totally vegan and the fact this book just came out, is perfect timing for me. The format of the book is excellent. It is fun to read and includes not just recipes but pantry lists and spaces to plan out weekly menus. I am eager to try every recipe in the book.
Virginia W.
This book is a great way to understand a whole food plant-based diet and how to go about making meals that follow that way of eating. I would recommend this book to anyone wanting simple delicious meals without a ton of ingredients.
Hazel G.
This is a great beginner's WFPB cookbook! Many people either don't know how to cook or don't have time to search for obscure ingredients and long/complicated food prep. This book has you covered.
Elizabeth H.
The best part about this cookbook is found in its simplicity. I have purchased a lot of WFPB cookbooks that are over the top with ingredients and steps. I think they are great, but I don’t mKe them. This cookbook is not like that. Simple, wholesome ingredients and realistic cook/prep times.
Mandie B.
As a beginning plant based eater, I was thrilled with how simple and easy to understand the recipes are. I did not know how to pull a plant based diet together and keep eating things I love. This book has the recipes I needed. I have made many of the recipes and they turned out great and were delicious. No elaborate ingredients. Just good nutritious food
Janie M.
The recipes are simple, healthy and delicious! Great variety of meals. Perfect for families. I love that there is a lot of information, yet the book is concise and well written. I have been vegan for many years and read countless books. This book, however is by far my favorite
Ellen B.
I have been Whole Foods Plant Based since 2015. One problem I have with many Plant Based cookbooks is the recipes sometimes are quite involved or use ingredients that are hard to come by. Not so with this cookbook. All recipes are easy to make and all that I have tried are absolutely delicious. Whether you are a beginner or are a veteran Whole Food Plant Based eater, I would highly recommend this book.
Lisa C.
If you want easy, delicious and inexpensive recipes to make, this is the cookbook for you! Every recipe we have tried and has been wonderful. It takes very little time to assemble the recipes and not many ingredients. The ingredients are very common and what you would already have in your pantry. If you are vegan or not vegan, you would still enjoy these recipes. I would definitely recommend this cookbook to everyone!
Cheri S.
I ordered several vegan cookbooks at the same time. I was very excited when they all came in, and I tried recipes from each of them. I was a little disappointed at the lack of pictures in this particular book. So upon delivery, it was my least favorite. However, after trying a recipe, I was surprised at how delicious it was. Better than the recipes of the other, more colorful recipe books I ordered. So, I continued to try more recipes out of this book. So far, every recipe that I’ve tried has turned out wonderful. This is my new favorite cookbook. I was very pleasantly surprised with the numerous high-quality recipes. I definitely recommend this book.

Beautiful book. I loved the way the book read to me and I saw so many ways I can live comfortably in my body without eating meat. This book broke down all the different food choices for me, helping me to decide what will work best for me.
Kimberly A.
This is a great book! Especially if your like me new to this and just starting out. I struggle with eating healthy. So this book was very helpful in describing exactly what a "plant based" diet really is, and the benefits. I liked the success stories and the encouragement, too. I will be using this book as a reference as I attempt, yet another time, to try to become as healthy as I can be.

Sharon H.
I try to eat healthy, but don't especially like to cook and absolutely hate making recipes that have tons of steps or require me to buy a lot of "non-standard" items or spices. So I was overjoyed to see that the recipes in this book are not only easy to make but that I already had 99% of the ingredients in my kitchen. So far, I've made 3 recipes (chickpea curry, orange-glaze tofu, and a smoothie) and all of them were simple to prepare and very tasty. This is one cookbook that I will be using frequently - I love it!
Bernice V.
I am not exactly a plant-based beginner, but I am always on a lookout for new ideas and this book is a treasure trove I wish I had 3 years ago when I embarked on my journey. What is also very helpful is the index, so when I have food in the fridge sitting there for 3 days, I need to quickly find a recipe to make a tasty dish with it.
Jane B.
A fantastic resource for beginners! I've made four recipes so far and look forward to exploring more!
Simply wonderful plant based Cook book and I love that its very educational around the benefits of a plant based diet!
Erin W.
This book has it all for those just starting out on their wfpb adventure to those of us who have been there for awhile. It's easy to read and the layout is exceptional and pleasing to the eye.
Betty M.
This book has some really tasty recipes that are easy to follow! He covers the ins and outs of becoming whole food plant based. This is a wonderful guide for beginners and experienced alike.
Loraine T.
I did a quick skim of this book. It has a ton of information for new Plant based dieters. The recipes look amazing. Each recipe says the serving size and gives the nutritional info which I love. I also appreciate that the ingredients are common and most can be found at local stores, a few could be ordered from Amazon if you live in a smaller area. I would feel if I gave this book to my 80 yo mom she would understand exactly what plantbased diet is.
Frances A.
I started this lifestyle due to my health. I have RA and a friend recommended I go plant-based. I started about three months ago. For the first time in ten years, my fingers do not hurt! I am feeling better and stronger each day. I am no longer taking my medications. When starting this type of a lifestyle, it can be easy to wonder, "What can I eat?". This cookbook simplifies the plant-based diet, complete with a shopping list and sample menu.
Olga E.
So much in this book. It reads more like an academic paper than a motivational “change your life in 12 easy steps” but gives a solid foundation for each life tweak recommended.
Leslie M.
The short version: This book is incredible, chock-full of a massive amount of information that was new to me. Very highly recommend.
Jackie W.
Really good read.
I couldn't put the cake down.
I mean book.
The book.
Eileen O.
An excellent book - life changing! It made we wonder 'Why has nobody told me this before - I've been torturing myself needlessly for years!' It makes so much sense and works! I've lost weight already and feel fab and NOT hungry. I'd recommend this to anyone and everyone
Brittani K.
I'm writing this review 18 months after reading the book because after this time I can conclude that it's been life-changing.
Sarah M.
THIS. This is just simply amazing. It might not be for EVERY SINGLE PERSON OUT THERE but it works for a lot of people and I have seen it with my own 2 eyes. I myself have really struggled with major weight fluctuations ever since my first pregnancy back in 2007. Before I got pregnant I was 119 lbs. At the end of that pregnancy I was 175 lbs. About 2 months after giving birth I managed to get back down to 120 lbs but it was short lived. 2 years later, within about 3 months my weight skyrocketed from 120 lbs to 170 lbs!!! That was the summer of 2010. Between 2010 and 2014 my weight just kept fluctuating between 175-190 lbs. I ended up getting engaged and wanted to lose weight for the wedding. I started at 190 lbs and worked my butt off in the gym, counting calories, drinking nothing but water, working out some more, cutting more calories, etc. By the date of my wedding I managed to get down to 125lbs.
Maria B.
Oh my, what a book! ??
I bought it, after reading negative comments about " hard to get ingredients " and how " all have to be organic " because I already eat organic and most of food in my kitchen is hard to get, so I said to myself - that's sound interesting. Didnt know anything about the author before, or deeper meaning of the book, it just catch my eye, and oh how I am grateful it did.
Pamela .
This book has changed my life! Easy to use, easy to follow and down 11lbs in 2 weeks. If you are looking for a book to start plant-base this is it.
Mary A.
I had other books in hard back that were more difficult to follow and recipes were to advanced or I could not find the ingredients. I will use this everyday
Great book! It's helping my husband keep his blood sugar down. I particularly love its recipes--especially the one for granola. I've been making granola for years, but it became difficult for my husband to consume when he came down with Type 2 Diabetes. Now he can have granola again that doesn't jack up his blood sugar. When my kids visit, they also enjoy this granola because it's so delicious. Fortunately for them, they don't need to worry about their blood sugar, but it's just too delicious to ignore.

This book was a great book to get me started on a plant based diet. Went from 232 to 174 lbs. The author encouraged use of healthy fats. The plant based diet does take a leap of faith, you must be fully committed. Recommend you read the theory and find some recipes to get started.
Shirley F.
It has really good Recipes and budget friendly ingredients.
Rachel R.
The majority of recipes in this book her incredibly easy to follow, even for a bachelor such as myself. As a common sense list of ingredients, often using frozen foods or semi-prepared foods. Not having to hunt all across the grocery store or spent hours preparing one recipe has truly been a timesaver.
Helen T.
Most recipes are some that you can use for your whole family with ingredients that are easy to find. And if you need gluten-free or dairy-free recipes or vegetarian ones, then this book provides them for you. You also get the calorie and nutrition counts.
Really great book for people (like me) who need to lose some weight. Think about getting this for any New Year's Resolutions you might have planned. It is well planned out and constructed well.
Elisabeth B.
Great guide for beginners, has lots a info, and well researched material to help you reach your goals. (lost 40lbs in under 3 months)

The beginning of this book explains how to boost your metabolism, which foods aide in increased metabolism and which foods to avoid. It also debunks myths about traditional dieting and why most fad diets don’t work. I am the type of person that goes on a restricted calorie diet as soon as I notice I put on some weight. Yes, I lose the weight, but I end up putting it right back. This is a constant cycle of deprivation and frustration. I like the ideas put forth in this book, such as burning fat while keeping your metabolism active and incorporating moderate exercise.
Cheryl M.
The meals are fairly easy to prepare. As someone who usually eats twice a day, it took some getting used to eating 3 meals and 2 snacks. I did notice a difference. I felt fuller longer. I no longer craved unhealthy snacks in the evenings. I felt healthy and I was motivated to eat clean and keep active. I think this is a great book to start your weight loss journey, or maybe if you just want to switch things up a bit. I highly recommend this book.
Susan M.
As I am approaching my fifties, the metabolism topic became more important than ever and I wanted to give this book a try.I’ve only tried a few of the recipes but so far they have been tasty.

As someone who works night and takes care of a toddler by day, I’ve had a hard time keeping up with any form of dieting.
This book has a great format of all the ingredients I need to buy for the week as well as some easy to do at home exercises.
Cynthia J.
This book is a no nonsense approach to changing the way you eat and promises to bring about a change in your diet that will allow you to drop weight and maintain that better figure. This book is a comprehensive approach to changing how you eat, it not only contains recipes, but also allows you to formulate a meal plan and is focused on no fad diet, but making you eat food that increases your metabolism and achieve weight loss that way.
That change in diet combined with exercises, promises results in a month.

This is an excellent book. It gives an overall description of the diet and what it can do. It starts with explaining, giving hints for success, shopping lists, recipes, and sample meals. Very easy to follow. I started the diet for two weeks and lost weight, lowered my sugar A1c and in such a short time felt like I was more awake, alert, and physically stronger with less ailments. My doctors were finally pleased with my progress.
