Description
Since 1984, Jivamukti yoga has been synonymous with a new way of living – peacefully, healthily and consciously. In 2006, Sharon Gannon and David Life opened the Jivamuktea Cafe in New York City to complement their yoga school as a living expression of how compassionate spiritual activism can be put to practical use. The peaceful ambience, the camaraderie and, most of all, the delicious, hearty fare struck a chord with patrons who were thrilled to eliminate meat and dairy from their diets without sacrificing taste. Gannon reveals the secrets behind the cafe’s acclaimed menu and showcases her own home-cooking, with recipes she’s been making for family and friends for decades – from Creamy Wild Mushroom Soup to Cajun-Mexican-inspired Jambalaya to her signature chocolate mousse. Her recipes are paired with gorgeous colour photos by award-winning photographer, Frank Guzman. The hardcover is featured in Rachael Ray’s 2015 Go Vegan Guide and was named a Best Fall Cookbook by Well + Good. Whether you’re a stalwart vegan or one of the millions of people who eat vegan part-time for health and environmental benefits, Gannon’s accessible, delicious and spiritually powerful recipes will bring joy to your table and tranquillity to your life.
