Foreword
By Deborah Madison
Imagine starting the day with a luscious “galactic” smoothie that’s filled with dates and papayas, or a chai latte made not from a tea bag or a mix, but from black tea simmered with ginger and spices, the way it’s done traditionally. For something more substantial, you might add a southwest scramble—of not eggs, but tofu and herbs and spices—filling, yes, but it’s also light. For lunch, you might dip into a warm bowl of soba noodles or make yourself a wrap (add a side of pickled beets here) and, come dinnertime, you may anticipate tucking into a red lentil-infused quinoa kitchari or a warm African sweet potato soup. Need a snack between meals? How about some toasted pepitas, crispy kale (now this is good!), or flavored popcorn? Do you have children? There are recipes just for them. Open The 30-Minute Vegan and you might well be surprised—and no doubt pleased—by what’s inside. A host of appealing recipes can be found between the covers of this book, as well as a lot of good information about food and cooking in general, surprisingly realistic approaches
