Gaz Oakley is a major hit on Instagram and YouTube where the professional chef has been charting his journey to a fully-fledged vegan.
He now brings together his greatest successes in the form of Plants Only Kitchen: Over 70 Delicious, Super-Simple, Powerful and Protein-Packed Recipes for Busy People.
Beautiful Plant-Based Food Photography
Before we get to the meals, even if you just like to look at pictures of amazing food, Gaz has you covered!
You can see why he’s a smash hit on Instagram. Every single recipe looks like it will taste amazing and (spoiler alert) we’ve found that in practice – it all does taste amazing!
The 15-Minute Vegan Meals
One thing that we really liked about this book was the inclusion of “15 minute-meals”. These nutritious, plant-based meals can be prepared and cooked in under 15 minutes.
Vegan cookery can often require a ton of preparation and we don’t always have time to make something tasty and nutritious if it’s going to take several hours to prepare.
Gaz’s one-pot meal philosophy is also pretty cool, it cuts down on washing up and thus environmental harm whilst still making super tasty meals.
If you’ve been considering a plant-based diet or you’d like to introduce more vegan food to your everyday eating habits, then this is a great place to start.
The meals area also very kid-friendly and our children really enjoyed trying Gaz’s food.
You can find Plants-Only Kitchen on Amazon.
