Sure, a plant-based diet is often touted as healthier than the Standard American Diet, but ‘vegan’ doesn’t automatically translate to ‘low-fat’ — and no one knows this better than Lindsay Nixon. In her new cookbook, Nixon offers up a wide array of tried-and-true favorites made over. Recipes range from vegan classics like Chili sans Carne to Macaroni and ‘Cheese,’ as well as interesting twists on otherwise high-fat foods (such as the ingenious nutty spread or instant cookie dough) — you’ll be amazed at how these foods can be rendered fat-free and still taste delicious. Though I don’t follow a fat-free diet, The Happy Herbivore recipe is still the one I turn to first when I’m looking for a tofu omelet. With its fuss-free recipes and easily accessible ingredients, The Happy Herbivore Cookbook is an ideal cookbook for anyone just embarking on a journey to veganism as well as for those seasoned vegans who simply wish to reduce their overall fat intake.
