Beautifully Real Food: Guilt-Free, Meat-Free Recipes to Indulge In

Melbourne-based vegan chef and surfer Sam Murphy was used to being trim and eating anything she liked, which meant hefty servings of burgers, cakes and other not-so-healthy food. When she began to explore veganism, she thought she'd be leaving all those favourites behind, but through her kitchen experiments, Sam realised she could still have those irresistibly delicious meals while also staying healthy and being faithful to her new vegan lifestyle. Taking the best recipes from her imaginative and very popular Instagram feed, this collection brings together Sam's healthy versions of everyone's most indulgent meals, from spaghetti carbonara, Tex-Mex cheese toasties, loaded vegan dogs, salted caramel brownies, pumpkin pie, cheesecake and cookie dough cereal to seven different and delicious burgers. Sam's philosophy is that even without meat and dairy, and while trying to ensure peak fitness and wellness, it is possible to enjoy really delicious food that's also a feast for the senses.
