In this book you will find quick and colorful plant-based appetizers that are nutrition-conscious and suitable for everyday use at home, while also easily scalable for entertaining a larger crowd. From classic fresh flavored dips, sauces, and spreads, to delicious small bites, light cold soups, and summery salads with freshly prepared dressings, the recipe selection is varied, and there’s something to suit every taste. Most of the appetizers take between 5 and 15 minutes (or less) to prepare and can be and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. They will come in handy when you don’t have the time, or the patience required in preparation of more elaborate dishes. The best part is that there is little, or no cooking required, and the recipes are perfect for a laid-back al fresco meal in the backyard to share with friends and family in the warm weather.
