Trying to categorize Marcela Benson’s Love, Peace and Vegetables is nigh unto impossible…you could think of it as a beautiful coffee-table book filled with imaginative uplifting and eye-popping art. It’s even reminiscent of the botanical treatises of the 19th century with loving graphic renderings of plants and vegetables. You might consider it a spiritual meditation and inspirational guide. Maybe it’s a poetry book with its many lovely verses. Perhaps you might see it as a manifesto for the live food lifestyle and eating completely clean of all disempowering influences, with all the instructions on food preparation that implies. But mostly, there are the scrumptious, mouthwatering, astonishing recipes for filling your table with simple, but gourmet live food cuisine.
Marcela Benson’s amazing Love, Peace and Vegetables: Recipes for Conscious Living is all of those things!
