Less Meat, More Plants - A New Cookbook by Annabelle Randles

In her new book, Less Meat, More Plants, carnivore turned flexitarian Annabelle Randles delivers a pragmatic and gentle approach to getting more veggies on your plate without having to give up meat altogether.

"My aim with this book is to offer options for pescatarians, vegetarians, and those simply looking to cut back a bit on meat and/or dairy”, says Annabelle Randles.

With delicious recipes and a light tone, Annabelle guides you along the path to sustainable change, one meal at a time. The book offers more than 100 sustainable recipes to nourish your body and protect our planet.
"Those already following a plant-based diet will find new ideas and inspiration for mealtime without sacrificing taste, texture, or satisfaction."

Annabelle also shows you how to accommodate both meat-eaters and non-meat-eaters with adaptable recipes that can provide two meat servings and two vegetarian/vegan portions, saving you time and money.

Adopting a plant-forward diet has been a life-changing experience for Annabelle.

"It's a diet that I have been able to stick to simply because it is not too restrictive. It has also given me a growing awareness of the links between food, health, ethics, and the environment and how I need to reconnect with the food I eat".

Whether you want to take a slow approach to adopting a plant-based diet, dabble a bit, or want to add more options to your recipe box, Annabelle has you covered with everything from easy Meatless Monday dinners to full vegan-friendly meals.

In the book Annabelle shares her best-kept cooking secrets and uses familiar and accessible ingredients to help you take those first steps toward eating a plant-based diet.

"If you are looking to add healthier options to your plate, do your part for the environment, or just experiment with something new, this book’s fresh take and foolproof recipe selections will have you on the road to success in no time."

Less Meat, More Plants comes complete with:

• 100 easy recipes, each with a full-colour photo
