The Vegetarian Reset
The Vegetarian Reset: 75 Low-Carb, Plant-Forward Recipes from Around the World | Vasudha Viswanath
1 post | 1 read
“Perfect for flavor-first foodies like me, who are on a mission to add more plant-forward dishes to our tables!" – Michelle Tam, New York Times bestselling author and creator of Nom Nom Paleo The Vegetarian Reset celebrates a lifestyle where a foodie sensibility intersects with healthy eating. It solves the never-ending dilemma that all plant-based eaters face: Is life fun when you eat salad every day, or is it worth it to let your health take a backseat to enjoy a big bowl of rice or pasta without enough protein? In her debut cookbook, Vasudha Viswanath takes readers on a little trip around the world, drawing inspiration from an array of traditional and global cuisines that are rich in whole foods like vegetables, legumes, and healthy fats. Seasonal vibrant recipes are moderately low-carb and put vegetables front and center, while also being gluten-free! Learn to bake healthy bread from scratch, make paella out of cauliflower rice, transform paneer into gnocchi, and sweeten brownies with dates! Whether you already follow a low-carb lifestyle or simply want to add more healthy dishes into your rotation, The Vegetarian Reset will delight and inspire vegetarians, vegans, and omnivores alike to eat well, fully nourish, and reset your body. MORE PRAISE FOR THE VEGETARIAN RESET: “A genius idea that is beautifully executed by Vasudha…Bring on the Curried Lentil Mushroom Bolognese, Masala Egg Bites, and Avocado Lime Smoothie, please!” – Archana Mundhe, bestselling author and founder, Ministry of Curry “[A] genuine work of art! The photos are breathtaking, and the recipes are unique, nourishing, and easy to follow.” – Shana Hussin, author of Fast To Heal and Registered Dietitian Nutritionist “[V]ibrant and diverse recipes will inspire you to change the way you eat and focus on healthy lower carb options." – Dhru Purohit, host of the Dhru Purohit Podcast and serial entrepreneur

Mehso-so

While I really like the layout and the cute graphic for nutrition information, this is not a cookbook for me. Low-carb in this case means using chick pea flour for all breads, cauliflower rice instead of regular rice and vegetables instead of pasta.

I only wanted to make about 10-12 of the 75 recipes. But the ones I made were all good and one was amazing. I now follow her on social media, hoping to collect the handful of amazing recipes.

Tamra Yay for the borrow and not the buy! 😄 Unfortunately I find this to be the case for so many cookbooks. Still it‘s fun to browse. 7mo
TheBookHippie I‘m getting into the borrow mode just for this reason! 7mo

Liz_M @TheBookHippie @Tamra Exactly! I'm test-driving the cookbooks and if I find one I like, I will buy it (already bought one). 7mo
Tamra @Liz_M which one did you like? 7mo
IndoorDame I‘m all for trying that stuff once. I found out I actually love chickpea flour, but detest cauliflower rice! 7mo
Liz_M @Tamra the pictured recipe: Saag Lasagne 7mo
Liz_M @IndoorDame True enough, but I don't currently make breads as part of my cooking routine and am not ready to add them to the rotation. So I didn't want to buy a 2lb bag for recipes that needed 1 Tbs. 7mo
IndoorDame @Liz_M oh, totally! Just throw in standard flour! 🤣 7mo
