PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Eating Bird Food blogger Mullins's practical vegetarian debut makes "plant-forward" cooking varied, tasty, and easy through meal planning and prepping. She opens with four sample weekly meal plans, one for each season, alongside shopping lists and "make ahead" tips, but if batch-cooking quinoa and prepping veggies on Sunday isn't one's thing, Mullins's framework is adaptable; each of the 101 recipes features both "serve immediately" and meal prep instructions along with storing and reheating tips. An extensive breakfast chapter includes homemade instant oatmeal packets, as well as veggie quiche with sweet potato crust, and PB&J yogurt jars. Chapters on satiating salads, bowl meals, and sheet-pan suppers deliver a varied mélange of vegetables and grains in dishes from across the globe, among them cauliflower tikka masala, thai lentil meatballs, jerk chickpeas with sweet plantains, and butternut squash and black bean enchiladas. Lively introductions and well-styled photographs invite readers to explore, from trying a "game-changing" way of cooking spaghetti squash to subbing jackfruit for pulled pork. Snacks, treats (brownie hummus, anyone?), and a handful of kid-friendly recipes round things out. Busy home chefs looking to expand their vegetarian repertoire and streamline effort will find much to inspire them.
