Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior

Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior: Live Fierce, Stay Bold, Eat Delicious
By Jane Esselstyn and Ann Crile Esselstyn

The “Julia Child of plant-based cooking” teams up with her daughter to offer a multigenerational celebration of the power of a plant-based lifestyle—with 125 recipes.

The Esselstyn family is three plant-based generations strong. Encouraged to create recipes without meat and dairy when her husband’s research pointed to the impact of diet on reversing disease, Ann Esselstyn began feeding her family creative, plant-based meals more than 30 years ago. She and her daughter, Jane, have become fierce, energetic, big-spirited advocates for a plant-based lifestyle. They reach hundreds of thousands of fans through their books and their popular YouTube channel.

At 86 and 56, respectively, Ann and Jane are pictures of ageless health and vibrancy and spend their days hiking, doing yoga, gardening, cooking, and spreading the message that diet is the key to living a happy, strong, and disease-free life. Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior explains how women everywhere can pass on this important legacy in their own families and illuminates how plants powerfully support the body and mind. This cookbook is a call to action and a message of hope for anyone who wants to be filled with vitality and in control of their own health.

Be a Plant-Based Woman Warrior features more than 125 recipes made for folks on the go— including Apple Flax Flapjacks, Black Ramen Bowls, Portobello Sliders with Green Goddess Sauce, and Mint Chip Outta Sight Brownies. It also includes big-flavored dinners—such as Sweet Potato and Cashew Ricotta Lasagna and Plant-Based Pad Thai—sure to tempt even the most vegetable-averse eaters. Full of life, captivating energy, and delicious dishes, this cookbook brings readers to the Esselstyn family table, where plants and joy are at the center.
