The simplest "introduction to plant-based eating" cookbook with an approachable yet crave-worthy take on health-conscious cuisine.
Two (former) competitive bodybuilders turned crunchy hippie mamas have joined forces to share health-forward recipes from their daily lifestyles. Amber, a 4X cover fitness model, influencer, mama and entrepreneur, and Brittany, wellness blogger, writer, mama and author, have learned over the years how to prepare healthy, plant-heavy meals for their families-- without sacrificing flavor. After winning over picky husbands, toddlers and friends alike, they were convinced to create a cookbook to help you fool your family and friends into healthier, plant-heavy eating, too!
These recipes are for everyone! Hippie Eats caters to those with food allergies, sensitivities and dietary restrictions by being gluten-free, dairy-free, peanut-free, fish-free, shellfish-free, soy-free and vegan-friendly. Although the great majority of the recipes are vegan, a handful of recipes are available for omnivores. All recipes that are not entirely vegan provide a simple 1:1 replacement. From sweet noms like strawberry cake donuts, simple smoothies and savory dishes, like creamy potato and kale soup, Hippie Eats will provide instant family classics.
More than just a cookbook, this hippie mama duo has you covered by including a health-forward grocery list, sharing healthier swaps and nutrition tips to enhance your lifestyle for years to come. This isn't just a book of kale salads, it's a book with all the good stuff we know and love, with a healthier, hippie twist.
"Everyone has a story and it all starts somewhere. This is ours. From "buff bodybuilding babes" with similar pasts of diet extremes, to finally achieving a balanced lifestyle in nutrition, health and total wellness. We believe the food we eat is more than just a meal, it's a conscious choice to nourish the body from the inside out.
Because to us, health really is wealth. Eat like a hippie!"
