The French art of the 'Aperitif', the nibbles, canapes and drinks before a meal, has heavily inspired this book. Small bites and canapes might seem time consuming and complicated but I assure you they can be so easy to put together with the right 'mise en place' and organisation.
My goal is always to make your life easier and your time in the kitchen enjoyable. This book compiles recipes that are very simple and straightforward and some that might require a little bit more time and commitment. I will give you all the tips and tricks to organise your day of hosting and perfect plant based cooking.
'Plantbased Hosting' compiles all the canapes I made for my daughter's first birthday, as well as a selection of showstoppers bakes to celebrate anything from a birthday, to an engagement or having made it to Friday on a heavy week.
I aim to create delicious food that just happens to be plant based, wether you're a seasoned vegan or just looking to incorporate more options into your diet I hope you will find something delicious here to impress your guests with.
