Cooking from the Spirit: Easy Vegan Recipes for Comforting, Family-Friendly Plant-Based Meals with Southern Flavor (A Feeding the Soul Book)

“Cooking from the Spirit” is more than just a cookbook—it feels like having Tabitha Brown in your kitchen, cheering you on. I love that the recipes are approachable, flavorful, and don’t require fancy ingredients. Everything is plant-based, but the focus is really on making food that tastes good and feels good, whether you’re vegan or just trying to add more veggies into your meals. What stands out most is Tabitha’s voice throughout the book. She writes with warmth and positivity, reminding you to cook with love and not stress about perfection. The recipes are easy to follow, but there’s also a lot of flexibility—she encourages you to “cook from the spirit” and make substitutions if needed, which makes the book feel very freeing instead of rigid. I’ve already tried a few dishes, and they’ve all turned out delicious. The photos are beautiful too, and the stories sprinkled throughout make it feel personal and inspiring. This is a wonderful book for anyone who wants simple, tasty plant-based meals—and a little extra joy while cooking. Highly recommend!

This cookbook is full of beautiful, plant-based recipes! I haven’t tried them all yet, but the ones I did make were really delicious. The layout and inspiration behind each dish make it such a joyful addition to my kitchen — I’m excited to keep cooking from it!

WARNING: The food is delicious! LISTEN, if you are looking for a good vegan cookbook with DELICIOUS recipes, Baby BUY THIS BOOK! I am a newbie to vegan & plant-based lifestyle (4 weeks to date) and took a chance and purchased this book a day ago. I thought I'd try the vegan fried "fish" recipe as a test to see if #1 this book's recipes were any good AND #2 (and most importantly) if this food tasted good. And baby when I say that I cooked the vegan fried "fish" today for the first time (following Tabitha's easy to follow recipe to the T) and ate it and it was THE BOMB.... C'mon Now! Oh my gosh it was SO DARN GOOD! I have NEVER eaten the main ingredient before (get the book to see what I mean) and NEVER used some of the other ingredients before but baby this doggone recipe was oh-so-good! As a first-timer to cooking vegan food and eating vegan I will say A+++ to Tabitha Brown for this one! I can't wait to try her next recipe in a few days! 😍 So, would I recommend this cookbook to anyone looking for a cookbook with photos that has good easy-to-follow delicious recipes? Umm..., that's a no-brainer, YEAH YES, SI, 100%! Oh and as a side note, I cooked this for our New Year's Day dinner (and you know the saying goes that you shoukd NOT be trying out new recipes for the holiday gathers. But I did lol 🤣 and it was a hit for me). So buy your copy and enjoy!

This is a beautiful cookbook and it has a lot of recipes.

This recipe book is colorful and very easy to follow. Although I’m not vegan, I use the recipes for different meal ideas.

Ok I love Tab and I am eating and working even more being I am getting older. The cookbooks is nice but the only thing I thought it would be simple, easy and quick meals. I have not tried anything out of it yet. But I plan on it.

The delivery of the book came earlier than expected. I purchased the book used, but it look brand new. Just a few minor things but still perfect condition. After reading the intro and looking at some of the recipes. I just know I’m going to love this book!
