Plant-Based Himalaya

“Give your taste buds the treat of a lifetime. The photos of the dishes enhance the mouth-watering experience and also provide a short tour of Nepal.” —Integral Yoga Magazine

The art of healthy cooking is all about loving yourself and spreading that love to those around you. It’s even better when you can cook a delicious meal and also help protect the environment.

In Plant-Based Himalaya, Nepalese author Babita Shrestha shares thirty-eight vegan recipes from her home country that she has been cooking and eating since she was very young, including mouthwatering grains, dal, curries, greens, sauces, and desserts. In addition to food, Shrestha introduces her beloved Nepal along with her personal goals for a plant-based diet: decreasing mass production and consumption of unhealthy processed food in plastic packaging.

Featuring 250 beautiful full-color photos, Plant-Based Himalaya is designed to inspire you to cook and eat exquisitely vegan home-style Nepali cuisine. Make it exceptional, and share it with your loved ones!
