This is a book of delicious recipes, starring vegetables, with more of more flavour, more texture, more colour.

Maybe you want to eat more vegetables, or less meat, or try cooking some tasty vegan meals to broaden your repertoire and still put a broad smile on the faces of those you are feeding?

Maybe you want to save money or the environment by eating more plant-based meals, or maybe you just want to keep the vegan or vego in the family happy at dinnertime without having to cook two meals?

Maybe you just want to enjoy a meat-free Monday every so often and don't want to feel like you're missing out?

Here are over 100 recipes full of vibrant colours and flavours that celebrate the pure, unadulterated pleasure that food can give you. All the recipes are vegetarian or vegan - but if you decide you'd like to add a little bacon or a slab of fish, we're not going to wag a finger. We've even included a separate cooking guide for your meaty add-ons.

Gone are the grey-meat-and-potatoes menus of the past. Each of these recipes capture the happiness that good food can bring. More combines Matt's passion for simple, hearty recipes with his love of the humble veggie to bring the whole family to the table for a delicious meal.

This is a specially formatted fixed-layout ebook that retains the look and feel of the print book.

I love this book! I love it because Im using this book. Its not sitting on the shelf, it has doge ears and I'm even making notes in it, sacrilege lol. We are basically vegetarian but occasionally enjoy meat. I enjoy his introductions to the recipes, a little history, an opinion, love it! Matt starts with vegetarian options but he's not on the vegan only bandwagon and makes room for all tastes in that way its very freeing book. Such a great book that has added to the quality of our food lives. Thanks Matt

and well, his raw nachos with vegan sour cream
just angers me for being stuck in bizarroland

one thing that makes me laugh is the guy is a quasi-vegetarian
yet on one of his books he's wearing a brown leather apron
the irony of that is just wonderful!

I do not normally read cookery books but this was an exception. It has beautiful illustrations and very detailed and easy instructions and easy to follow. I cannot wait to try some of the recipes. As I’m retiring soon I’ll have much more time to do so. Well done Matt!
