$\"\"$ As most of you know, I\u2019m a lady that loves to eat, and a lady that loves being given an excuse to eat. So here we are, now discussing \u201cFull Bloom: Vibrant Plant-Based Recipes for Your Summer Table\u201d by Virpi Mikkonen.<\/p>\n

Flipping through \u201cFull Bloom\u201d is like scrolling through one of those aspirational lifestyle wellness Instagram accounts. Everything looks beautiful, delicious, and maybe you don\u2019t want to think about everything that goes into making it that way. While \u201cFull Bloom\u201d touts its simple recipes and easy to accommodate ingredients, I wouldn\u2019t say this is necessarily a book for beginners. Although, if you\u2019re willing to do a little extra shopping and put in a bit of effort, you\u2019ll find this book is loaded with amazing summer dishes you can truly feel good about.<\/p>\n

$\"\"$ And don\u2019t you worry, there are some STUPIDLY easy recipes nestled in \u201cFull Bloom\u201d and I made one! \u201c3-Ingredient Brownies\u201d is truth in advertising. Bananas, almond butter, and cacao powder go into a blender and then into the oven. Mikkonen suggests serving them with vanilla ice cream, and she is right. The brownies have a good taste to them, but are a bit dry and grainy in texture. I ate mine with plain yogurt and it made of world of difference.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re looking for some inspired summertime, plant-based food and beverage ideas, I highly recommend \u201cFull Bloom\u201d by Virpi Mikkonen.<\/p>\n
