Eat the Rainbow

This book appears to have been written especially for me. It has everything I want in a cookbook: not too many or unusual ingredients, brief introductory chapters, simple, sleek layout and a beautiful photo of every recipe. It is a joy to page through and even though I was not hungry when beginning my viewing, it didn’t take long for me to find several recipes I’d like to try.

As a vegetarian wanting to eat more vegan, this book was perfect. There are so many recepies i want to try out. The photographs are really good, the visual of the meals made me really want to try out everything.
I loved the variety for the different meals too. There were a lot of options to choose from for breakfast, lunch, dinner and desserts.

This is a delightful vegan cookbook full of beautiful and colorful photos of the foods that she makes.

I hadn’t heard of this author or her social media accounts previously. I found this book on Netgalley, where I stalk the Cooking section. I love cookbooks that focus on making healthy vegan meals without relying on a lot of processed foods.

I highlighted a lot of recipes to try – 14 to be exact. That is a lot of me to choose in one book. There aren’t a lot of recipes that are revolutionary here but each is fairly simple and realistic for home cooks. Most of the recipes I chose are variations on things I already make but gave me some good ideas for slightly new techniques or ingredients to add.

Chocolate chia pudding with raspberries and coconut cream – She recommends blending the pudding after it sets for a smooth consistency
Simply sweet and sour tofu bowls – I’m always looking for Asian-inspired recipes that have a lot of flavor while avoiding foods that trigger allergies around here
Tomato heart tart – This uses puff pastry as a quick base for a pizza
Smokey sweet potato pizza – I’m intrigued by this sweet potato based pizza dough.
One-pot veggie tagine with jewelled bulgur wheat – This is a good way to load up on lots of veggies
Jackfruit buddha bowls with quick satay sauce – I’d use this for the method of baking jackfruit
Magical Mexican salad bowl – This has a quick pickled onion recipe
No-bake galaxy blueberry donuts – Gluten-free and no bake donuts? I’m going to be skeptical until I try this myself
Lush lime drizzle cake with coconut frosting – Who doesn’t love a vegan drizzle cake?
Bright blueberry and lemon loaf cake – That just sounds happy
Cheeky chickpea nuggets – This is from a section on feeding toddlers which is something I don’t know if I’ve seen before in a cookbook. I’m a fan of everything chickpea so I don’t care if it is toddler food.
Colorful carrot chips – Baked carrot fries would be a nice variation of the baked sweet potatoes I make often
Berry bliss balls – Little no-bake bites that seem similar to the donuts
Berry best chia jam – I have chia seeds and frozen fruit so why do I buy jam when I can make it myself?
This is a British cookbook so readers from elsewhere may need to Google a few ingredients to see what she means. She does a good job of listing temperatures and measurements in lots of units so people everywhere can make these recipes.

"Eat the Rainbow" by Harriet Porterfield is a gorgeously photographed vegan cookbook that will have you running to your kitchen to make many of these beautiful dishes.

Each dish in the cookbook is accompanied by a photograph of the finished product and I found myself salivating as I looked through the recipes.

The book spans all meals, from breakfasts, lunches, salads, mains and desserts and offers a wide range of delicious, achievable recipes that even novice cooks will be able to reproduce successfully. And there is no special equipment. She does mention some items that might make the preparation easier but they are far from necessary.

This is a lovely book for vegans, vegetarians and anyone looking to expand their repertoire of non-meat dishes.

Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This book has beautiful images and so many good recipes!

I’m not a vegetarian or vegan but I like to eat healthy and this is a really good book for that!

It has everything you need for a balanced healty lifestyle.

This is a book I would buy myself!

Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group –Leaping Hare and the author for providing me with this copy. My opinions are my own.

So many yummy recipes and the pictures were so vibrant, it helped with the process of bringing these to life. I loved how the ingredients were simple. I've been wanting to try more vegan meals for my family and this book was perfect. Thank you!

This cookbook contains only vegan recipes. The instructions are very clear. The photographs are very beautiful and colourful which make the food look very appealing.
A very useful book for those who are just beginning their vegan journey but also for those who have been vegan for a long time.
