Meatless Around the World

Description

Bring the flavors of the world to your weeknight table — without a single hard-to-find ingredient.

Meatless Around the World is a collection of easy, satisfying vegetarian dinners — many naturally vegan or easily made vegan — inspired by kitchens across the globe, from a lemony Greek chickpea tray bake to a creamy West African peanut stew, a silky Thai red curry, and a cozy warmly-spiced Indian red lentil dal, and many more. Every meal carries the character of its home cuisine and is built around ordinary supermarket ingredients — beans, lentils, pantry spices, and everyday vegetables. Most come together in under 35 minutes, so you can cook something genuinely different tonight without a special shopping trip.

Every recipe is built on whole-food, plant-forward ingredients — with healthy high-protein, high-fiber dinners that keep you full. Most deliver 10–16g of protein and up to 13g of fiber per serving, with no ultra-processed shortcuts.

What makes this cookbook different?
This isn’t a book of 100 recipes you’ll never make. It’s 12 dishes taught so thoroughly that you’ll actually cook them — and cook them well. It doesn’t just tell you, it shows you. Every recipe includes step-by-step preparation photos and a visual “texture goal” guide — a sequence of photos revealing exactly what each stage should look like and, crucially, when to stop cooking. No more guessing whether it’s done, overcooked, or needs another few minutes: just match your pan to the picture. It’s like having someone stand beside you in the kitchen.

Each dish is meat-free, serves four, and is laid out across three clear, illustrated pages: what the dish is and what you’ll need; a step-by-step method with visual texture cues; and a final page covering flavor, nutrition, quick fixes for when something’s not quite right, easy variations, and simple serving ideas.

Inside you’ll find:

• Over 72 step-by-step preparation photos — one for every stage, so you always know you’re on track
• 12 fully-taught illustrated recipes, each one meat-free and internationally inspired
• 7 recipes are fully vegan, plus 2 more easily made vegan
