He studied all aspects of non-meat proteins and today is widely regarded as the expert in the field' developing new concepts for meals and sauces and helping to improve textures for food companies such as Gardein (the provider of vegetable proteins used by Morningstar Farms' It′s All Good' Trader Joe′s brands' and the prepared food department of Whole Foods' to name a few). THE CONSCIOUS COOK features a center-of-the-plate protein in all of its entrees-a first for vegan cookbooks. Seventy-five original recipes are organized by categories that include starters and small plates' soups and salads' entrees' and desserts.
