Thrive from the Inside Out: Simple Green Meals Cookbook with 100+ Plant-Powered Recipes

Bean Fish: I know these are for people who love to spent a lot of time cooking. The recipes are doable and great. I didn’t think veggies would take me so long in the kitchen but overall very satisfied and will use this when I have time. Bravo!

sld: I was surprised that egg based dishes were labeled “plant powered” (eggs are not). Nacho made with sweet potato slices are not nachos and to me, not appetizing.
I’ve been vegan for 15+ years and none of the recipes appealed to me whatsoever. The book for me, was a waste of money. I’m am avid cook and wasn’t compelled to make anything from the book. I’d rather skip a meal than make anything I saw.

This being said, if you are a vegetarian or part time vegan who wants to eat SUPER CLEAN you may love this book.

I’d much rather eat recipes from the Happy Herbivore books.

Laurie: I first checked it out at the Library to make sure if it was a book I'd like & use. It is! So when it went on SALE...I was sure to grab one.
Good, helpful info and tasty recipes.

C2: I am not a vegan or even a vegetarian. But I do believe that whole foods and a diet consisting of healthy fruits and vegetables tends to be better for you. This book has some great meals in it. The pictures are great so you can get an idea of what the meal will look like. Those are a huge plus. There is a wealthy of information in this book and it is a great resource for anyone who would like to look at changing their dietary eating habits.

Susan Bricker: I LOVED Jen Hansard and Jadah Sellner's first recipe book Simple Green Smoothies and this one is just as amazing! The photography is stunning and there's easy to follow delicious recipes, with a great variety! I loved the basics section on starting plant powered foods. I found it very informative and done in a very approachable way. I have been following Jen's website for quite some time and I love how her smoothies and healthy lifestyle has evolved into a recipe book like this! I hope there are more to come!

The recipe sections include: Breakfasts, Snacks, Soups, salads, and sides, Main Dishes, Desserts, and Beverages. There is also an informative Helpful Resources section and a One Month Meal Plans. There are so many recipes I can't wait to try, the Simple Marinara Sauce, Maple Raisin Cookies, Baked Apple Crisp in a Jar, Breakfast Toast 6 ways, and the Austinite Tacos!!! They look awesome!

I loved the Seven-Layer Dip recipe and the Taco Lime Salad with Cilantro Lime Dressing!!!! Delish!! I can't wait to go through the whole book and try them all! Next on my list is the Pumpkin Spice Pancakes!! Yummy!

I love Jen's passion for creating a healthy lifestyle for...

Kenny: I pre-ordered because I am OBSESSED with Simple Green Smoothies. for over 2 years, I have religiously followed that book like a bible along with her blog. This book did not disappoint. Its not JUST a cookbook... its like a blog/self-reflecting/inspiring book that just happens to have tons of amazing recipes. The second thing I love (about both books), the recipes are so easy to follow! I'm not an expert in the kitchen, I need this stuff dumbed down for me so that I don't feel intimidated. There's no fancy equipment, spices, or absurd items needed to create this food! its SIMPLE! The third thing I love - the graphics! They have one amazing photographer on their hands.

I can't rave enough about this book. A vegan or a vegetarian NEEDS this. I am neither of those things, but I can look at almost every single recipe and determine how I would incorporate meat.

Jen explains... don't just go out and buy everything and try to change overnight. Develop good habits! Make better decisions each day and each trip to the grocery store, make a change or two. Nothing about this book tells you to go on a diet, it just encourages more plants to be incorporated in your daily life so...

Geoff H: This just arrived and I am looking forward to trying out healthy new options. At 67, cooking for my husband and I had become somewhat monotonous and predictable. This will give us a new horizon. My daughter has the first book and loves it. Congratulations Jen
