Love this book! I’ve only tried about 4-5 recipes so far but I’ve loved them all. This book includes 100 recipes with at least 15 different soups, breakfast recipes, salads/sandwiches and some original staples - such as butters, pestos, and chutney, and ricotta’s! My goal is to try at least 2 recipes from here each week until I’ve tried them all! Really looking forward to trying the sweet potato/brussel sprout salad. I would highly recommend to all my fellow vegan/vegetarian friends or even those who want to try eating healthier meals!

Was expecting a cookbook it’s so much more. Whether you’re a beginner or seasoned cook there’s something to learn. The concept of dry sautéing is such a big change for me and I love it! Recipes are labeled nicely so you can see what will take less than 30 minutes, one pot, gluten or nut free, no cooking or five ingredients. I love that. This would make a great gift for a newer cook or someone who is trying to a healthier, whole foods based diet.

While I am not completely plant based, I love Justin's book so far! My plan is to add plant based recipes to my diet and I believe this book will help me meet that goal!

This is a great guide for anybody just getting into the WFPB way of living or someone who is experienced. I've only made one recipe but that one was easy to follow and delish! I especially like the substitution notes throughout the book because you don't always have all the ingredients on hand that's required.

Although I received the first copy free, I have bought myself the hard copy to add to my cookbook collection!

I would like to thank NetGalley and Callisto Media for the ARC in exchange for my opinion.

Beautifully and thoughtfully presented cookbook for those who prefer a plant-based diet or who are trying to incorporate more plant-based meals. The recipes are creative and look and sound very tasty.

From the descriptions and instructions - i.e., the callout that sweet potatoes are easier to use in gnocchi because of their higher moisture content - the author seems to speak with the voice of reassuring authority.

I think this would be a terrific gift. Recipes begin with helpful flags ("Gluten-Free," "Nut-Free," "One-Pot"), so the book will be welcome in many different kitchens. Although measurements and temperatures are U.S. Standard, there are conversion tables for metric and Celsius.

Many thanks to NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.

This is a fantastic resource and guide. The recipes look delicious! This is one my family will return to again and again. I highly recommend this great cookbook!

The book itself is beautiful and the recipes seem simple and delicious! I cannot wait to cook the recipes and I think this would also be a gorgeous gift for a vegan person, a gluten free person, or really anyone! This really does seem friendly to even the most basic of cooks!

The WFPB Cookbook is a tutorial guide and recipe collection for plant based whole food cooking by Justin Weber. Released 11th Aug 2020 by Callisto on their Rockridge Press imprint, it's 210 pages (for the print version) in paperback and ebook formats. It's worth noting that the ebook format has a handy interactive table of contents as well as interactive links. I've really become enamored of ebooks with interactive formats lately. For Kindle Unlimited subscribers, this book is currently included in the KU subscription library to borrow and read for free.

The introduction covers the basics of whole food unprocessed cooking and essential accessories as well as an intro to the whole foods diet, tips, ingredients, tools, supplies, and how-to. The following chapters include the recipes arranged roughly by category: breakfasts & smoothies, salads & sandwiches, soups & stews, mains, snacks & treats, and staples and partial recipes used as ingredients in other recipes.

Ingredient measurements are supplied in American standard measurements only. There's a conversion chart for metric measures included in the back of the book along with a short resource and links list for further reading. The nutritional information: fat, carbs, protein, fiber content, macronutrients, etc are listed for the recipes as well as serving sizes. Each recipe has a header with special labels such as nut-free, gluten-free, one pot, along with a short description of the recipe and approximate prep-times. Extra tips or recipe alternatives are listed in text boxes in the recipes. The recipes themselves are fairly straightforward and are made for the most part with easily sourced ingredients. Many are very simple, none of them are overly complex.

The photography is not abundant; most of the recipes are not illustrated, but the photographs which are included are clear and well done. I wish there had been more photographs and serving suggestions, but I do understand that extra photography increases the price of book projects very quickly.

This is a large collection of recipes and even allowing for the fact that some of them are very similar to others in the same category, this will keep vegetarian cooking fans going for ages. These are simple "everyday" recipes which are anything but boring. We tried several dishes and all of them were tasty and well written. (We didn't try any of the sweets or dessert recipes, but I found no glaring errors with a quick read-through).

We're definitely going to try more of these recipes. Well written book, tasty recipes.

Four stars. This is a solid recipe book which will be used. It would make a superlative housewarming gift to a friend or family member living on their own - college student, new graduate, newlyweds, kids flying the nest, etc or a friend trying to eat more health consciously with better quality plant based ingredients.
