In Happy Food, Bettina Campolucci Bordi shares a collection of easy and delicious plant-based recipes that anyone can incorporate into their busy life. Whether you're looking to eat more veggies or have decided to turn vegan but don't want to compromise on taste, this is the book for you. Bettina's philosophies are simple: she believes that food is meant to make you happy! Whether it's love at first sight because a dish looks so colorful and delicious, or at the first hit of flavors when they burst into your mouth, everything you eat should put a smile on your face. Happy Food is designed to take you through your busy day by including ideas for breakfast, lunch, dinner, meals for one, desserts, and snacks, and will easily meet the needs of any modern household. Bettina is also a firm believer that meat-free food doesn't have to cost the earth – you'll find recipes containing ingredients that can easily be sourced from your local supermarket, and she even uses white potatoes! Her passion and expertise lies in how to use everyday ingredients, and she makes them tasty in the simplest possible way. Inspired by food from the countries where Bettina has lived and worked – Tanzania, Sweden, Italy, Spain, and Bulgaria – this is vegan food to make you smile!
