Healthy with a Side of Happy

In her debut cookbook, the founder of Spring Cafe teaches families how to create healthy plant-based recipes to enhance their overall well-being. 

Sabrina Rudin knows nourishment is key in the kitchen. She believes healthy food should be delicious and satisfying, because that’s how to get everyone at the table to clean their plates—and ultimately to feel their best. Since opening organic, vegetarian restaurant Spring Café in 2013—and then becoming a mom in 2016—she has grown into a passionate advocate for raising awareness about toxins in our food, and educating people and families on how to cook, eat, and live in a better way for both themselves and the planet.

Now, in her debut cookbook, Sabrina shares the tools you need to create an attainable healthy lifestyle at home. Her methods are straightforward and easy to incorporate into your existing routines, with an ethos centered around the joy and abundance of mealtime. You’ll learn how to choose, prep, cook, and ultimately thrive on plant-based foods. These 100 recipes are both elegant and simple enough to satisfy people of all ages and palates, whether your youngest just developing their palate, a growing teen with a hearty appetite, or a busy professional.

Some highlights include:

• Fluffiest Gluten-Free Pancakes
• The Green Banana Smoothie (Sabrina’s favorite)
• Classic Tempeh Reuben Sandwiches 
• Simple Hippie Hummus with Crunchy Veggies and Tahini Drizzle
• No Bake Peanut Butter Granola Bars

And many more delicious options!

Healthy with a Side of Happy will inspire you to shift the foundation of the way you eat and cook for the ones you love, creating healthier, happier lives for all of you.
