Color Me Vegan by Colleen Patrick-Goudrou and published by Fair Winds Press, offers recipes organized by color (and nutrients). Patrick-Gourdrou writes that "even when a single fruit or vegetable is not an all-star source of one particular nutrient or phytochemical, eating an abundance of plant foods helps you accumulate a variety of healthful compounds little by little."

 

 

 

 

 

Celine Steen and Joni Marie Newman wrote Hearty Vegan Meals for Monster Appetities, published by Fair Winds Press, so readers can "create magnificent vegan meals that will have your dinner guests wondering why they ever "needed" meat in the first place.
