Plant-Based Magic

Food is a powerful form of medicine, and cooking is magic: the everyday alchemy that transforms simple ingredients into meals to nourish your body, nurture your soul, and bring your loved ones together around the table.

In Plant-Based Magic, clinical herbalist Lisanna Wallance draws on her knowledge of herbal medicine and modern nutrition to offer more than 100 entirely plant-based, gluten-free, seasonal recipes designed to support energy, digestion, immune function, and more. And because she believes that magic doesn't have to be a mystery, every recipe--from a citrus and sugar snap pea salad full of vitamins C and B3 to promote glowing skin, to a roasted eggplant packed with brain-supporting antioxidants--shares the science behind its revitalizing effects.

Inside, you'll find:

• Seasonal mains: Adaptogenic Stuffed Zucchini for Stress; White Bean Soup for Digestion; Crispy Kohlrabi Steaks for Detox
• Simple sides and lighter bites: Maple-Roasted Roots for Immunity; Parsnip, Leek, and Orange Soup for Serenity; Honeydew-Basil Salad for Hydration
• Healthy desserts: Strawberry-Lemon Squares for Euphoria; Rosemary-Clementine Cake for Cognition
• Potent "potions" TranquiliTea for Deep Sleep; Balancing Chia Lemonade for Satiety; Flower Vinaigrette for Radiant Skin

This is a book for anyone who's ready to take their wellness seriously, without sacrificing pleasure. Plant-Based Magic empowers you to turn every meal into a wholesome, joyful--and even magical--act of self-care.
