Summary
Do you believe in Magic?
Well, you most certainly will after today’s episode with Desiree Nielsen, celebrating the upcoming release of her new book, Plant Magic, coming out April 23, 2024.
This book busts the myth that a whole food plant-based diet is expensive, time consuming, restrictive, or boring.
In fact, Desiree shares over 100 deeply flavourful and wildly delicious recipes for everyone who wants to eat more plants and feel good.
In Plant Magic, Desiree shares approachable ways to incorporate plants into your meals, along with how to dial up your pantry and tricks for coaxing the best out of simple foods like beans, grains, and vegetables.
Plant-based cooking doesn’t have to be expensive, time consuming, or restrictive. Whether you’re craving morning things, stuff on bread, one pot (or pan) dishes, salads, tasty noodles, really good sweets, or everyday tonics and potions, Plant Magic makes cooking and eating joyful. Full of tips and tricks, stories and easy ingredient swap-outs, Desiree shares delicious recipes for some of your favorite dishes that just happen to be plant-based.
And, because Desiree is an accomplished Registered Dietitian, we also talk lasting behavior change, anxiety, self-doubt, and overcoming self-imposed food restrictions.
Celebrate the joy of plant-based cooking and put a little magic in your life with Desiree Nielsen.
