These are the late Linda McCatney’s recipes, collected and updated by her husband and children. With a foreword by Paul and lots of family photos and anecdotes, it has a very personal feel. So much so, that I found myself reading the recipes in a weird Liverpudlian accent!
There are lots of homely and straightforward recipes in here that I intend to try. I guess that many of them bear little resemblence to the recipes that Linda published in the 80s and 90s. Nut milks, aquafaba and the term ‘plant-based’ were virtually unheard of back then. So, though Linda McCartney is given top billing on the cover, I suspect that she’s the inspiration rather than the author.

What a beautiful cookbook! I especially love the personal touches throughout, photos of the family and quotes from the family explaining their choices to live a plant based life.
I especially love the simplicity of these recipes, not too over the top, and I have most plant based ingredients already in my pantry (flaxseed etc) as I already use these in my daily cooking/baking.
My partner and son are currently incorporating more plant based meals into their lives and really appreciated the opportunity to have a cookbook that is easy to read and follow, beautifully designed and with recipes that aren't too farfetched or scary for them to try!
Love it!
