The No 1 Bestseller The Happy Pear returns with quick, easy and delicious veggie options and inspiring healthy advice.

Though they have written two No 1 bestselling vegetarian cookbooks, David and Stephen Flynn, the twins behind the Happy Pear cafes and food business, know that time and inspiration can be hard to come by.

So Recipes for Happiness includes a huge section of economical easy dinners that can be rustled up in 15 minutes, lots of gorgeous hearty dishes, a selection of plant-based alternatives to family favourites and lots of irresistible treats.

For nearly 15 years David and Stephen's mantra has been Eat More Veg! They have seen fads come and go and they know what works - for themselves, their families and the thousands of people who eat the Happy Pear way.

Book Hero Magic summarised reviews for this book. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! HOW HAS THIS BEEN REVIEWED?
