YumUniverse Pantry to Plate

It's no secret that cooking at home is good for you - especially if you are trying to eat more plants (or less gluten), but cooking recipe after recipe can make a healthy lifestyle hard to stick to. Sometimes it's nice to eat without planning (and shopping) ahead of time! Enter YumUniverse Pantry to Plate: Create Plant-Packed, Gluten-Free Meals You Love - With What You Have!

In this one-of-a-kind recipe playbook, healthy living enthusiast Heather Crosby shares ingenious master recipes that home cooks can customise endlessly. For example, pick any grain, one or more veggies, and a complementary aromatic, saute them together in your choice of sauces, and voila! You've just improvised a hearty, nutritious 'scramble'.

Are you a recipe renegade who likes to bend the 'rules'? A new vegan or vegetarian seeking more kitchen confidence? Are you tired of going shopping for just one missing ingredient? Infinite possibilities await you in your own YumUniverse!
