Vegetarian teens have a unique approach to food: They have to juggle health needs, environmental responsibility, budget constraints, and the desire to develop a palate for a wide variety of flavors. For those looking to take control of their diets without compromising on taste, Vegetarian Teens Unleashed: 100 Recipes for Young Plant-Based Foodies presents an array of accessible and delicious dishes. It offers an easy-to-navigate collection of recipes designed for young vegetarians that are bursting with flavor.
The wide range of recipes included in Vegetarian Teens Unleashed cover all three meals of the day and provide plenty of inspiration for snacks and desserts.

Throughout, Vegetarian Teens Unleashed emphasizes the importance of local, organic, and seasonal produce, allowing readers to learn how to cook while also reducing their carbon footprint.

Writer and recipe developer Benji Pollak developed the recipes which emphasize whole ingredients and provide tips on ways to tweak flavors. With detailed instructions, Vegetarian Teens Unleashed takes the stress out of cooking. Recipes utilize recipes from familiar comfort foods to create plant-based dishes that honor traditional favorites, like the sun-dried tomato mac and cheese or the teriyaki mushroom burgers. In addition, dishes include vegan and gluten-free recipes, with special attention paid to produce safety, storage, and clean-up.
From classic dishes to ones with unexpected flavor combinations, Vegetarian Teens Unleashed adds flavors from around the globe to everyday meals. Co-author and nutrition educator Florence Simpson helps readers optimize meals for flavor and nutrition. Simpson is passionate about instilling the concept of the "primary plate" in teens: emphasizing the idea that the primary components of any meal should be healthy plant-based proteins and starches. Simpson also invites readers to explore their own flavor preferences and encourages experimenting with new ingredients and flavors.
