This is the type of cookbook I have been looking for for awhile in order to go more plant-based. I love how it is divided into seasons. That makes it easy to go to recipes where you can easily find the ingredients in the store. I love how it is plant-based and not necessarily vegan. No recipes laden with tofu, but healthy, nutritious plants, or using almond flour (also plant-based). Several photos throughout, but not very much. More would have been nice. Many basic recipes to make eating plant-based on a busy weeknight simple and nutritious. This is definitely a book for my keeper shelf.

I love this cookbook! The Plant-Based Cookbook by Melissa Petitto is full of delicious and easy to make recipes. In addition to being vegan, each recipe is clearly labeled with a variety of other dietary needs - gluten free, soy free, nut free, and more. There is something tasty for everyone in it. The book is divided into the four seasons to make the most of seasonal produce. It also includes vibrant pictures that will make your mouth water.

The first recipe I made was the crispy baked mac and cheese. It tasted great and the directions were easy to follow. It certainly won't be my last recipe from this book!

Thank you for the gifted copy. I will post my review on Instagram closer to the pub date as well.

I’m a vegetarian since several years now and ate vegan for a few years too. I still try to eat vegan whenever I can so cookbooks are always a good opportunity to find new recipes and discover new vegetables you never tried before.

I really like that this cookbook is decided into seasons and every main chapter starts with things that are currently into season. Buying seasonal and regional is the best thing you can do!
Most of the recipes don’t need any fancy ingredients you’ve never heard before or don’t know where to get, I love that.

I’m a little sad though that some of the receipts don’t have photos (the existing photos look beautiful!) and that there are SO many sweets in there. But maybe it’s only because I do not eat a desert every day. 50% of this book are sweets. Also considering that this book says “for a healthy lifestyle” on the cover. I would have preferred to have a little more savoury dishes, but that’s a personal reference.
What I would have loved would have been added info and suggestions what to eat with some of the dishes, since most of them aren’t a whole meal.

This is a pretty diverse cookbook. I liked how it is set up based on the season as opposed to most cookbooks that are organized by type of dish. I found a few recipes that I'm definitely going to try and it seemed like most of the recipes are pretty simple and could maybe be done in 30 minutes or so.

I enjoyed that this cookbook has really nice recipes that look easy to make and the whole family can enjoy them.

What a delight. I could not wait to try several of the recipes. The idea of Jackfruit as a alternative protein source was eye opening. The recipes were thoughtful in presentation and for anyone looking to Cary their food approach this is a game changer. I’ve found myself looking back in wonder at the freshness and light of these dishes. And the meals did not repeat on you throughout the day. Happy cooking

The first, and last, recipe I tried from this book was the crispy baked vegan mac and cheese. I followed this recipe to a tee, yet it came out overwhelmingly salty - to the point where I had to toss out the entire dish. The recipe called for 1 TBSP of salt, so I would suggest editing this page to instead read 1 tsp of salt. Overall the flavor of this dish was nice and cheesy, but the sodium levels made it inedible. I'm rating this book 3/5 stars as I'm hopeful this was just a one-off mistake, the photographs are beautiful, and I liked that the recipes were organized by season.

I am in love with how the Table of Contents is set up seperated by seasons and then by sweet and savory recipes.    Recipes based around what is in season, then split into categories by what you may be craving.

While the burgers on the cover look incredibly unappetizing., once you crack open this book there are so many delicious recipes just calling to be made. Many of them being easy to prepare.

Plant-Based Cookbook by Melissa Petitto is a gorgeous book filled with tempting recipes.  It is divided into seasons, which I think is so important because it gives you a chance to use vegetables and fruits that are available and fresh in the current season.  

The recipes I will be trying soon, as we are in between the Fall and Winter seasons,  are the Fall Bean and Butternut Squash Minestrone, the Baked Apple Cider Donuts, and the Brussels Sprout, Apple, Turnip and  Mandarin Slaw,  There are many other tempting recipes for every season.

Each section includes a list of in-season vegetables and fruits.  This book is all about using fresh, available, in-season fruits and vegetables to create delicious, plant-based meals.  The photos are gorgeous and plentiful.  The recipes are detailed and helpful.  I recommend this book to anyone who follows a plant-based way of eating,  plus anyone who wants to add more fruits and vegetables to their diet.

I received a free copy of this book from the publishers via Netgalley.  My review is voluntary.

A gorgeous collection to add to your kitchen library.  This collection of plant based meals is divided into seasons.  Mouth watering recipes coupled with gorgeous photography make this a must have for those who are eating a plant based diet or for those that would like to add more fruits and veg to their diet.

OMG! For most, the seasonal divide with the plant based cookbook is perfect to match your seasonal cook needs! I thoroughly enjoyed that thoughtful process. The ratio of photos to recipes is PERFECT! I love seeing cooked food which motivates me to pick my recipes. And boy did this ever motive me to cook! Easy to follow directions for everyone and mouth drooling photos, it was hard to pick what to cook first!

A lovely plant-based cookbook with delicious seasonal recipes! I liked that at the start of each season the book has a page with the fruits and vegetables in season ready for your shopping list. The photos will make your mouth water with all their vibrant colours! Recommended for anyone that wants to eat more plants and less meat!

Special thanks to NetGalley and Quatro publishing group for providing me with ARC.

I am feeling sorry because i can't read this book because i don't have NetGalley Shelf so I am not reading it, i have only Kindle , feeling sorry.

Does the question, what's for dinner? Loom over you every single night, where you just want to scream and reach for Uber eats? 

Yeah me too. Plant-based cookbook came into my life at exactly the time I needed it. We love to cook but have been lacking inspiration lately. This book is separated by season and then sweet or savory so it's easy to find a recipe to satisfy all of your cravings! 

This book is vegan with some twists on classic recipes (the beet and mushroom burgers have become a staple in our house) and some new ideas all together. If you're feeling like you need some plant based inspo, this ones for you!

Some excellent recipes to try, enjoy, digest and love.

With a view of healthy, thoughtful cooking and eating.

Enjoy!!!

I have tried several of the recipes already and found all of them delicious and easy to prepare . I recommend for anyone embracing a plant based diet

Yum. Plant-Based Cookbook: 100 Delicious Recipes for a Healthy Life by Melissa Petitto, R.D. has several great recipes to try out with easy instructions. I love that each recipe has a picture. The book contains a good variety of recipes using various foods and not the same boring vegan options. I like how the book is laid out by seasons and then sweet and savory and Food Facts that tell a little about the ingredient being used. 

One of my favorites that I tried was the Italian Stuffed Artichokes. I also used some of the recipes to improvise and use on other vegetables or as main sauces. The recipes are versatile.

I'm looking forward to trying more in the coming weeks.

Thank you to the publisher for an advance copy of this book via netgalley!

Loved loved the colours of this book! Beautiful images of veggies in rainbow colours! The recipes are simple, nutritious and mouth savoury. Best part: the recipes are organized by season! As someone who hates having to run around for ingredients when they are not in season, this book makes it easy to follow recipes with fresh ingredients available easily!

Plant- Based Cookbook, by Melissa Petitto, is one of the best vegetarian cookbooks I’ve read. The recipes are divided by Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter so you can use seasonal ingredients. There are gorgeous pictures for every recipe which I love. The desert recipes in this book alone are worth buying it. There really are no “boring” recipes in this one. They are so different and I’m very excited to try most of them. The only downside  I can see is that most recipes do call for a good bit of ingredients, some of which you may not already have. I think this is a small thing that will be easily overlooked when you make these delicious sounding dishes! 

Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing for the opportunity to read this book.

The book contains four sections:  Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter recipes. Each has savory and sweet recipes. The design of the book is good, which is essential for cookbooks. Each recipe has a photograph of a prepared meal beside the recipe. I like that. That way, it is easier for me to decide to cook a meal from a book. 

Many recipes look delicious, and I will try them out. Some recipes contain a bit unusual ingredients, but that is something you would expect as all the recipes are vegan, but some are also gluten-free, grain-free, soy-free, etc.

Many thanks to Netgalley and the publisher for the opportunity to read this! All opinions are my own.
