The Book

We live in challenging times. Natural ecosystems are collapsing. World population is increasing. On average, a thousand animals are slaughtered every minute in a small country like The Netherlands, day after day, year after year. Imagine the numbers world wide! Time for change? More and more people are saying HELL YEAH!

And this is good news, because it means that people are increasingly willing to take a good look at their own ecological footprint, especially at what’s on their plate. Veganism is on the rise. Health, climate change and animal welfare are issues that drive more and more people to adapt a plant-based lifestyle. Originally seen as a fringe movement, the rise of veganism has shown us that this is not a trend but the future of consumer growth.

The expansion of veganism, a movement driven mostly by the young, means that we need to re-define traditional stereotypes. The idea that real men eat meat no longer rings true in this day and age.  Having always done something a certain way, has never been a good excuse to keep on doing it. We need a reset. But how?

So Maartje Borst and Lisette Kreischer felt it was time for Man.Eat.Plant.! MEP is not only a book, not only a blog, it is a signal to the world that shows us that it is no longer macho and no longer necessary to eat animal products.

Smokey? Right on. Bloody? Beets can bleed. Blackened? Count on it. Man.Eat.Plant. will show the world that everything we think we know about food can be turned upside down without having to give up anything. You only gain…everyone gains.

So BREAK yourself free from the idea that meat and dairy are necessary! Spoil yourself and your fellow residents on this earth with a step forward in evolution and use the incredible knowledge and expertise that we, as human beings, are gifted to cook THE HELL out of plants. Start a riot on your grill or BBQ and scorch those vegetables! Throw in a sauce grenade and umami bomb! PREPARE FOR BATTLE and experience a range of gruesome pleasurable sensations!

The Man.Eat.Plant. cookbook is a super cool cookbook full of powerful and savory flavors and firm textures, and thus feeds a killer movement for which no one needs to be killed, because it is rooted in compassion and based on the power of plants. The recipes are simple and effective and the interviews powerful and inspiring. Derek Sarno, Loui Blake, Tobias Leenaert, John Lewis aka Badass Vegan, James Aspey, Menno de Koning, Tom Zwarts, Bas Waijers, Johnas van Lammeren, Maarten Burgers and Jay Brave all shared their insights and knowledge how to be a true warrior fueled by plants.

Man.Eat.Plant has been published in Dutch and we are desperately searching for an international publisher willing to translate Man.Eat.Plant. into English. So if you are that publisher or you know someone that can help us, LET US KNOW!

Dear peeps, We have let our minds wander in regar Dear peeps,

We have let our minds wander in regards to the new reality we are finding ourselves in and to say it with the words of @zachbushmd (check out his posts!) we 'strongly believe there is too much bandwidth of the collective human consciousness spent on this topic’ so we are not gonna add anything to that besides a few things:

1. @thedutchweedburger just posted an amazing article on their blog that to us says it all

2. we are not quite sure if we will be able to continue our friday posts during the coming period, but will do our best to offer easy and delicious plant based inspiration, maybe through our stories

3. because we see a lot of sadness on social media right now we thought this recipe might cheer you up a bit. Just because a smile can do so much for yourself, your body and the world around you.

We created these Pupcakes in service of @worldanimalprotectionnl and you can find the recipe via their website (link in bio) in Dutch. If you need English, Google is your friend ;-). These vegan puppy dogs are worth a translation.

Stay safe!

Maartje & Lisette

SAAG ALOO PARATHA We are doing a vegan tour aroun SAAG ALOO PARATHA

We are doing a vegan tour around the world in flavours and textures. This time we are diving in the fine realm of Indian curry's. And honestly, although there are many of them and most of them equally delicious we have a preference for Saag Aloo which is loaded with muscle enhancing spinach, chunky potato bits and delicious spices. How we wish scentgram would be a think right now so we could let you smell all the delicious aroma's filling the MAN.EAT.PLANT. kitchen while cooking this dish.

Now up on the blog (link in bio). #saagalooparatha #indiancurry #vegan #plantbased #plantpower #freefromanimal #hotroastedgrilledjuicyvegan #maneatplant
SPICY GOULASH STEW This scrumptious Hungarian ste SPICY GOULASH STEW

This scrumptious Hungarian stew is perfect when you’re hungry and craving for something comfy, hearty and meaty. And so easy to veganize, by protein bombing this dish with tasty, chewy and juicy seitan! You need to know how to work seitan and learn about its noumerous possibilities to get the best out of it. Fortunately we have 30 years combined of experience with this protein beast, so we're safe to say, we know the drill.

VEG BOMBED GREEN CURRY Although we are still in t VEG BOMBED GREEN CURRY

Although we are still in the middle of the winter, it feels like spring every other day and that is why we felt a craving for a light and crispy curry stuffed with leafy greens and fresh flavours. And yes, we know we promised over at MAN.EAT.PLANT. never to do a bowl of green food on a white background. But given the fact that we aren't crazy about (even our own) rules and conventions we did a delicious bowl full of green food on a light background anyway. The comfort food box is checked though, we made sure of that.
