Sometimes a cultural phenomenon in the U.K. isnt as popular in the United States. That includes everything from Premier League soccer to hard cider and the plant-based food blogger, podcaster and restaurateur Ella Mills, known as Deliciously Ella . While large swaths of Americans probably wont ever appreciate the true joys of English football and boozy apple juice, Mills has a chance to reach millions of new fans with the launch of her latest cookbook, Deliciously Ella Making Plant-Based Quick & Easy . It includes 100 new recipes, and were giving you three of our favorites all of them tasty, nutrient-packed meals worth making today.

Plant-based eating has been part of Mills life since 2012, when she drastically changed her diet to ease the symptoms of postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome (POTS), which affects the autonomic nervous system. She started a food blog that exploded in popularity and became one of the faces of the all-encompassing wellness movement. The result was over a million Instagram followers, a popular podcast and one of the fastest-selling vegan cookbooks in U.K. history. Regardless of how you feel about wellness trends like infrared saunas (she mentions being a fan in the new book), Mills plant-based recipes are mouthwatering and truly easy to prepare.

The cookbook features plenty of recipes worth exploring, from breakfast (like a green ginger smoothie or a smashed mustard avocado savory toast) to dips and dressings (like a harissa-spiced hummus or a miso coconut sauce). But the serious draw is in the three chapters dedicated to everyday dishes youll actually want to eat: 10-15 minute meals, 20-30 minute meals and big batch meals. That way you can select what to make based on how much time you have to spare.

Weve got three recipes from the new book, featuring one full recipe from each category: Creamy Kale and Mushroom Salad (10 minutes), Sesame, Almond and Black Pepper Tofu Bowl (15 minutes) and Easy Red Lentil Dhal (big batch).
