EVERYDAY
EATS
INTRODUCTION
Hello and thank you so much for purchasing my ebook! In case you don’t already
know me, my name is Holly and I am a vegan food blogger on Instagram,
@veganlovinglife . I have created this ebook with over mmmm
90
55 recipes in it, to encourage
and inspire people to eat more plant based food. The recipes are very simple and
easy to follow, consisting of simple ingredients (nothing you shouldn’t be able to
find locally) which are so good for you! The ebook is split into three main
categories: breakfast, savoury and baking recipes. There's a recipe for everyone,
and you don't have to be vegan to enjoy them!

This ebook consists of over aaaaa


90
55 recipes, some of you may recognise
recipes from from my Instagram page, because I wanted to create a
permanent location to store the best recipes for you, but don’t worry, the
majority of the recipes in my ebook are new!! The recipes in here are my
absolute favourite ones and are mostly my veganised classic non-vegan
recipes, without skimping on flavour but are a lot better for you, the
environment and the animals!
If you like these recipes, and you aren’t already following me, be sure to
check out my Instagram account, @veganlovinglife where I post daily
photos of meal inspirations and make simple vegan recipes!
