Publisher's Weekly Review

Peanut Butter Cookie Dough Bites, Taco Fiesta Potato Crisps, Mushroom Walnut Pesto Tart, and Luxurious Tomato Basil Pasta may not scream "vegan," but thanks to Liddon, these recipes make the non-dairy, no-animal products cut. Stemming from her award-winning blog ohsheglows.com, Liddon has compiled more than 100 plant-based recipes. Chapters cover the basics (as well as a section on power snacks) and includes a chockfull of energizing grazing ideas, such as Super-Power Chia Bread, Salt & Vinegar Roasted Chickpeas, and the Classic Glo Bar-comprised of ingredients such gluten-free rolled oats, hemp seeds, and peanut butter. Full-page color photographs make this a great gift buy not just for vegans, but home cooks looking to expand their meatless repertoire. (Mar.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.

Library Journal Review

Liddon, a former child development researcher, struggled for years with an eating disorder. This companion cookbook to her popular vegan recipe blog, Oh She Glows (ohsheglows.com), documents her journey to a healthier life and combines 75 new recipes with 25-plus new and improved reader favorites. Liddon's authentic voice and candidly shared successes will motivate nonvegans to try healthy recipes such as effortless vegan overnight oats (made with chia seeds and homemade almond milk), Eat Your Greens Detox Soup, and Classic Green Monster (a kale and banana-based smoothie). It's easy to tell which recipes are gluten-, soy-, nut-, and sugar-free, but none include nutrition information. VERDICT For most vegan collections. (c) Copyright 2014.
