Our 5 Favorite Plant-Forward & Healthy Cookbooks

The holidays are just around the corner and that means a lot more time in the kitchen. What better time of year to spice up your meals and add some new plant-forward, healthy recipes into your lineup?

Although the holidays usually have the reputation to be centered around baked goods, sugar, cocktails, and decadence, we offer up the idea of balance. While we all love splurging on our favorite holiday treats, it can be satisfying and feel-good to add in a little bit of health, wellness, and greens!
