Top 3 vegan cookbooks for beginners

If your trial of Veganuary (vegan in January) truly paid off, or you’re following in the footsteps of some of our favourite celebrity vegans, bravo! We salute you, whether it’s a diet-related choice, an ethical one or you’re just trying out a new trend.

If you’re a beginner, you might just be wondering how to cook vegetable-based meals that are nutritionally balanced, tasty and quick. If you’re a seasoned  vegan, but you’re making the same old recipes again and again, and maybe even exhausted the meal delivery options, it could be time to hit the books.

From vegan substitute ingredients to deliciously sinful desserts that don’t break the rules of your lifestyle choice, the below books have got it all to offer. And with a whole host of our favourite Instagram influencers’ faces on them, there’s bound to be something to suit anyone. Looking to convert a friend to a flexitarian diet? These vegan cookbooks could be the way forward.
