Plant-forward cooking, organized around your time

Natalia Rudin’s cookbook brings together more than 100 mostly plant-based recipes, arranged by how long they take: under 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or an hour, alongside slower dishes for weekends and meals with friends. The collection also includes breakfasts, meal-prep ideas for packed lunches, and sweet treats. Short ingredient lists and suggestions for additions or substitutions make the recipes adaptable to available ingredients and different ways of eating. The result is a practical mix of quick weekday options and dishes set aside for a more leisurely occasion, with examples ranging from butterbeans and soy mushrooms to buckwheat pancakes and chocolate blondies.

A collection of over 100 simple, satisfying, plant-packed recipes that are low on effort but big on flavor, from Natalia Rudin, the viral creator behind Nat's Nourishments.

Loved for her quick and delicious recipes whipped up after a long day as a personal chef, Natalia Rudin has created a show-stopping cookbook full of (mostly) plant-based recipes that are guaranteed to comfort, nourish, and delight.

These recipes are short on ingredients but big on flavor and nutrition, with plenty of suggestions for additions and substitutions to suit what you eat and what you have available.
