I know a lot of you are tempted to say it, I myself am even leaning towards the yes camp, but we're not going to mention that contentious four letter f-word here just yet. Although we're really close, guys. Can you feel it? Instead, we're going to bask in all the glory of late summer while she's still with us for another couple of weeks. This time of year the air begins to change and with it, so do the scents that waft in from still open windows. Gone are the sweltering warm days of July that carried scents of tomato greens and Coppertone, giving way to the heavy notes of rain on dry earth or the wild smell of crisp leaves and dried golden grass.
Two Sundays ago, the heat broke and the sky opened up and with it came a torrential rainfall that washed away the summer heat from the earth. Like a baptismal that brought rebirth, the world begin to feel new again. The heavy white fog that followed blanketed the land in a vail of mystery, and like clockwork I begin to turn inwards. To reflection, re-centring and refocusing on the important things I let slide during the warmer months. Days like these have me planning and nesting like no other. With the air now colder, I seek coziness. I'm once again curling up in our big arm chair, rifling though my extensive cookbook collection, dog-earing the pages along the way and excited that cooking can once again be a joy and not a hot kitchen mess.
One of my most anticipated cookbooks this year (seriously, I'm the pre-order on Amazon months in advance kind of lady) is Oh She Glows Everyday, the new one from the ever inspiring Angela Liddon. This is Angela's second book yet it is filled with just as much love and passion as her first. Each page is brimming with vibrant and elegant recipes, gorgeously photographed by the sweet Ashley, that will have me bookmarking about every darn page. What I love about this book is how totally user friendly it is. I've found in the last little while, some vegan cookbooks have been a little far reaching with odd ingredients or labour intensive recipes, but as this books name suggests, it's the perfect for everyday meals.
Beyond having a stunning recipe section with seriously mouth watering dishes like Protein Power Rainbow Quinoa Salad, Roasted Garlic Basil Pesto Potatoes with Arugula, and the Marinated Portobello Mushroom bowl (which looks like a warm hug in comfort food form), the book is broken down into to very visual and practical sections. The first section is the pantry section which wonderfully illustrates all the essential ingredients as well as how to select, store, and prepare them, followed by a huge section of homemade staples from Tahini Dressing to BBQ Sauce and everything in between.
I chose to share this Golden French Lentil Stew with you because it's just the type of meal I like to make this time of year. It's bright and flavourful with turmeric and coriander, uses summer veggies like carrots and chard, and is the perfect nourishing bowl to transition into these colder evenings. Next up for me to try are the High-Rise Pumpkin Cupcakes and Shepherds Pie and a little more nesting in anticipation of you know what. I have a feeling like this will quickly become my most used book of the season.

GOLDEN FRENCH LENTIL STEW
Serves 4, Print Recipe Here
½ cup raw cashews, or ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons raw sunflower seeds
2 cups water
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large yellow or sweet onion, diced, or 2 leeks, cleaned and thinly sliced (about 2 cups)
4 large cloves garlic, minced (2 tablespoons)
1 to 1 ½ teaspoons fine sea salt, to taste, plus a couple pinches
2 medium carrots, diced (1 heaping cup)
2 stalks celery, diced (¾ cup)
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 ½ teaspoons dried thyme
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 (14-ounce/398 mL) can of diced tomatoes, with juices
¾ cup uncooked French green lentils, picked over and rinsed
4 cups low-sodium vegetable broth
3 cups stemmed and chopped Swiss chard or kale leaves
Freshly ground black pepper
1 to 2 teaspoons white wine vinegar, to taste
1. Begin by placing the cashews or sunflower seeds in a bowl and cover with a couple of inches of water. Soak for 1 to 2 hours or overnight. I used the quick-soak method and covered the sunflower seeds with boiling water for about 1 hour. Once the seeds have soften, drain and rinse them and add to a high-speed blender along with ½ cup of the water. Blend on high until super smooth and creamy. Set the nut cream aside.
2.In a large Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the onion, garlic, and a couple pinches of salt, and sauté until the onion is softened, 4 to 6 minutes.
3. Stir in the chopped carrots and celery, and cook for another few minutes or so. Stir in the cumin, thyme, and turmeric.
4. Add the diced tomatoes with their juices, along with the lentils, broth, and remaining water. Turn up the heat to high and bring the mixture to a low boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, for 30 to 35 minutes, until the lentils have softened.
5. Once the lentils have cooked, stir in the nut cream and chard. Season with salt, pepper, and vinegar to taste. Cook for a couple of minutes over low-medium heat, until the chard is wilted. Serve alongside some crusty bread.

Lindsey says
Looks & sounds delicious! How long will this keep? Do you have to serve right away? Thank you!
sophamac@gmail.com says
This should last about 5 days in the fridge and could easily be frozen for longer (like a month). It would be perfect to make up early in the week and reheat for lunches or supper.<3
Jordan says
I love making any sort of vegan stir fry or curry.
Stephanie says
I am so excited for this cookbook! Our favorite plant-based meal happens on the grill, and is a big mess of filling food. Summer squash with dill & lemon; tofu and/or eggplant with garlic, ginger, maple syrup, Bragg's liquid aminos, rice vinegar and sesame oil; baby eggplants slit almost through and stuffed with oregano, garlic, olive oil, salt; beets wrapped in foil with a slip of thyme or a slice of orange; chopped potatoes and onions wrapped in foil with olive oil, salt, and pepper...
Hailey B says
Our go to plant based meal is black bean tacos with garden heirlooms, bell peppers, red onions, cilantro, avocado, corn and whatever spicy peppers we have! I pair that with Mexican rice (brown rice cooked in veggie broth with diced tomatoes and chili powder, smoked paprika, oregano, cumin and cayenne). So good and even our two year old likes this dinner!
Safina says
My favorite plant-based dish to make is pasta! I love to add sauce, garlic, tomatoes, peppers, spinach, basil, etc. to it. It is easy and delicious!
Shoshana says
A meal that I make myself at least once a week is spiced roasted tofu with veggies and potatoes. Simple but satisfying!
Annette G says
A simple kale salad, or veggie sandwiches.
Samantha G. says
Thai coconut curry with all the veggies!. Or avocado smashed on GF toast with tomatoes, basil, nutritional yeast and sea salt. The best.
Joanna says

So resonating with your perfect words here Sophie, I love this time of year during the shifting of the seasons! Currently drinking a green smoothie while wrapped in a sweater. Happy happy girl. And this cookbook is exactly as you describe. I'm mega enjoying it too, and am right there with you on those high-rise pumpkin cupcakes <3.
Angela says
Recently I've been obsessed with tempeh tacos! Its not quite "quick" but I'll keep ingredients in the fridge for quick meals for a few days. I'll make some vinegar red onions, throw on some avocado, romaine and a cashew chipotle sauce and some salsa!!! Leftovers get made into new tacos or bowls.
Christina says
My favorite fast plant based meal would be some sort of grain bowl, or if I'm feeling super lazy a hummus and veggie sandwich!
Klara says
Wow this looks so so delicious!! I´m a big lentils fan and I will definitely make it.

My favorite fall recipes are soups and chilli. 🙂

I love soups and making them! And the upside is my husband and kids love them too. The family favorite is roasted tomato soup, with tomatoes from our own garden 🙂
Valerie W. says
Black bean tacos, something everyone enjoys!
Linda says
I love making soups- it is so easy to combine greens, beans, tomatoes, spices in a pot for a quick meal!
Annalise says
Hmm, that's a hard to decide... I really like making veggie bowls for myself, but when I'm cooking for my family, probably falafels or pasta dishes.
Emily C. says
I could eat hummus avocado tomato toast every day. Thanks for the chance to win!
Laura Olson says
New quick dinner is roasted eggplant strips with z'atar seasoning and cashew cream on flatbread. So simple. Love the seasonings Angela has in this soup. Exciting!
Molly says
I absolutely love whipping up stirfries on busy weeknights because I find chopping soothing, the process very speedy, and clean-up easy! I usually throw in tofu or chickpeas, my favourite veggies, lots of ginger and some brown or jasmine rice.
Sarah says
I love pasta with whatever veggies I have in the fridge and make it under thirty minutes. Cheap, simple, and easy!

sophamac@gmail.com says
Hello Sarah!!!! Your number was chosen at random as the winner of the OSG cookbook!! Yay! Please send your address to sophie@wholeheartedeats.com and the publisher will send you your copy!

Clara Sulpice says
In the winter, steamed veggies with Braggs Aminos and cashews,in the summer, a nice BIG crunchy salad.

Such a beautiful post! My favourite, quick and easy plant-based meal is the Roasted Broccoli, Kale, and Chickpeas with Ricotta from Sarah Copeland's book Feast, It's tasty, easy, and healthy. Win! Win! Win!
Corrine says
I find soups easy to make and throw together at the last minute.
Shannon says
This looks amazing! I basically live on bowls - I just pick a grain (rice, quinoa or millet usually), a protein (beans, tofu, tempeh), a ton of veggies, and add sauce (my favourites are tahini sauces, miso sauces, or balsamic dressings!). I also make red lentil soup a lot, with canned tomatoes, Italian spices, and whatever veggies I have around. It's a great meal for throwing everything in a pot and having dinner ready 20 minutes later! Thanks for the giveaway!
Marilyn says
I love bowls! Usually either rice or quinoa and a ton of veggies. Can't go wrong 🙂
Lynda says
That Golden French Lentil Stew looks amazing! Right now, I guess my favorite plant-based meal is a classic salad. This sounds odd, but I am more-or-less a newbie when it comes to eating plant-based. I grew up with the typical SAD (Standard American Diet) and then progressed to more of a Paleo-style diet. Now I am reading How Not To Die and am becoming convinced that a vegan diet is probably the most healthy diet one can follow.
Katy says
I love a big bowl of leafy greens, quinoa, cucumbers, tomatoes, peppers, sunflower seeds and raisins. Olive oil, vinegar, salt and pepper on top!
daniella says
I never get tired of mixing some kind of beans (mostly lentils!) with rice, raw veggies, spices, and alll the apple cider vinegar
Carol says
Soup is my favourite go to plant based meal. Fresh vegies and herbs from my garden combined with a few pantry staples always creates a hearty, delicious meal! Yum!
Molly P says
My go-to veggie meal is an easy, use up all your leftover veggies, stir-fry. With a quick miso-ginger sauce. I never get tired of it because I can always change up the veggies or play with different variations of the sauce.
Lydia Claire says
Taco Salad is kind of my go to. In fact I'm having it tonight!
Lydia Claire says
Oh and I shared on Twitter and FB!
Tasha H. says
I really found “Oh She Glows” refreshing through her many (easy to make) recipes and user friendly website. As a matter of fact, I’m making her Glowing Spiced Lentil Soup tonight.
Stella @ Stellicious Life says
I've bookmarked this recipe and am soaking my lentils. Looks lovely, can't wait to try and teste it! Really sorry the giveaway is not open worldwide 🙁
Emma says
Favorite plant-based dinner is sweet potato hash browns topped with eggs.
Anna C says
My laziest meal is hummus and fermented veggies on sprouted grain toast. Having it for lunch right now!
Peanut Butter & Ellie says
Wow, Sophie, once again your words are beautiful and your photography is STUNNING! I love the word-image of the sky opening up, and I adore the pictures of the vegetables- my mouth is watering!! My favorite quick meal is a bunch of veggies roasted in olive oil and salt over a bed of quinoa. It's so simple but so so healthy and comforting. I also love simple and easy to make burrito bowls with rice, beans, lettuce, salsa, cilantro, tomatoes, and guac.
xx Ellie // https://peanutbutterandle.wordpress.com
Jessica Remick says
Roasted carrot and butternut soup with a side salad full of greens and some hummus and tomatoes to top it off!
Deborah H says
I love making Angela's 10-spice vegetable soup. I keep a jar of her 10-spice mix available so I can whip up this soup pretty quickly. The flavors are spot-on and the soup tastes even better the second day 🙂
SuzyM says
Dare I say Avocado Toast! It's quick and easy.
Julia says
Beautiful photos! I'm excited to look through more of your recipes as I just found your site. Thanks for sharing!
Favorite meals lately are dinner sized salads with lots of veggies, nutritional yeast and homemade dressing.

My favourite quick and simple meal is coconut rice, peas, and tofu!
Natalia M says
Bowls bowls bowls, I can't get enough of them. Most nutritious, filling and easiest meals to create. Also, easiest to use seasonal produce!
Shelley says
What a stunner of a recipe! Loving these photos and the flavouring of this stew. With the days getting shorter and likely colder, I'm all about a veggie thai curry - loaded with warm flavours, subtle heat and all the veg and peanuts.
Sarah says
My favorite meal is quick and easy. Red Lentil Dal from Oh She Glows! Go check it out!
Kathy says
My current favorite is roasted asparagus, garlic and grape tomatoes served over brown rice noodles with balsamic glaze drizzled over it. My non-vegan family loves this one!
Charlene says
I love making Quinoa Chile or a veggie only Chile with butternut squash and kale (+many more!). Thanks for the chance 🙂
Beth says
Taco night! Refries, rice, veggie, greens, kim-chi=yum!
Sonia says
Wow, that lentil soup is such a beautiful color! My fave easy vegetarian dish right now is pasta with sautéed corn and grated zucchini. It's what I ate tonight!
Lea says
Angela's Black Bean and Potato Nacho Plate..... When I want really quick I just do the black bean skillet mixture.

Tami says
My favorite quick and easy plant based meal to make is rice and beans. Thanks for the chance to win!

That stew looks amazing but dare I say it -- I'm not quite ready for that kind of fall feel! Right now, I'm loving quick tomato salads with grains, chickpeas, and harissa.
Brandee says
My current favourite plant based meal is my eggplant chickpea curry. So good with fresh tomatoes and eggplant from my garden!
Jo says
Oh, this looks delicious and I will definitely be making it soon. I made your Unbelievable Buckwheat Bread a couple of weeks ago, and I think a couple slices would be great with this stew! Time to get my (slimy, eek) buckwheat game on again 🙂
I'd say my favorite quick meal would just be a pile of roasted veggies with some homemade hummus and crackers. You also can't go wrong with a humble bowl of rice and beans!
Rebecca says
This looks wonderful! It could join some of my favorite quick meals for fall--split pea soup or red lentil chili made in the pressure cooker! Six minutes and done!
Thia says
Thank you, Sophie, for not saying the F word. Like you, I'm still savoring these days of Late Summer!
My quick and easy meal: roasted, curried sweet potato slices with steamed broccoli, green beans, and chickpeas.
I coat the sweet potato slices in coconut oil, then sprinkle with curry powder, garlic powder, and a little black pepper, then I put them in to roast for about 15 mins. While the potato roasts, I chop the veggies and put them in the steamer on the oven. When the potato timer goes off, I start the veggie water boiling. Then, while the water boils, I flip the potato slices and put them back into the oven. I steam the veggies for about 3 mins. Then I put them on a plate (maybe add a little coconut oil), add the potato slices, sprinkle it all with a little tamari and dig in.
Julie says
My go-to is often red curry lentils. This looks great!
Nic O Lock says
Thanks for the chance to win!! This is a hard one, Lately the kids have been asking for vegan mac and cheese with trees basically boil the noodles midway through toss in the broccoli strain and in a separate pot make a white sauce flour, oil, cook a couple min add garlic powder, onion powder, nutritional yeast and salt add water simmer till thick and creamy and stir into the strained pasta and broccoli mix fast, cheap, and easy. 🙂 Can't wait to try this soup!!!
Paige says
love to make an eggplant lasagna chock full of seasonal veggies <3
Sarah says
I was just talking to my partner about how much I want this book. I make her veggie burgers regularly, served with a side of quinoa salad with whatever veggies I have lying around. So good.
Patricia says
I like to make just a quick salad with some black beans for protein and LOTS of veggies...cukes, tomatoes, peas, shredded carrots, avocado, onions, zucchini, asparagus, or whatever suites your fancy! Nutritious and Delicious!!!
Michelle says
Tofu scramble with whatever veggies are in the fridge!
Planete says

jan says
My favourite quick and simple plant based dinner is a lentil-veggie burritos.
Christina says
This has been the summer of the grilled vegetable grain bowl for me. Grilled eggplant, zucchini, and peppers with farro and kale/arugula, and an herb pesto. I never get tired of it!
Hannah says
Exciting! My absolute FAVORITE plant-based meal is throwing together some type of pasta with a cauliflower ricotta. It takes a little bit of planning to make a batch, but it's so so so worth it! Plus, then I can keep a big ol' jar of of it for the week to add to meals 🙂
gail says
Looks and sounds delicious! Go to meal - some sort of nut sauce with veggies (roasted or raw) and rice.
Heather says
A tofu scramble atop sweet potatoes, toasted bread, leftover grains or corn tortillas is super quick and easy, plus satisfying and healthy -- win! This is much lovelier, though, as the scrambles tend to look a little haphazard...
Susan says
Nom nom! Looks delicious! A new throw-together plant-based recipe I've been enjoying is diced marinated veggies (usually red peppers and artichokes), prepared baked tofu, and quinoa with some herbs to make it feel a little fresher 🙂
Sue says
In Indian cuisine there are simple dishes called poriyals- which are basically just different types and preparations of vegetables. I love to make a few different vegetable poriyals and eat them with rice. It's a great way to get variety in a plant-based meal.
Deni says
I love making the crowd pleasing tex mex casserole from the OSG first cookbook! Always a hit for vegans and non vegans and delish!
janet @ the taste space says
Having a baby has given me a new appreciation for quick and easy food. Right now, I am kind of living off peanut butter and coconut bacon sandwiches!
Kelly says
Avocado basil pesto on zoodles!
Jill says
My favourite recipe to make for meal times this summer has been a "Summer Squash Bake"... can be done in the slow cooker or the oven, and a great way to use up any left-over produce in my fridge before it spoils! And, so tasty! Love the first 'Oh She Glows' cookbook... can't wait to check out the second one!
Katharina says
I always have cooked grains/beans in the freezer, so when I don't have energy or time to cook, I defrost and season it and serve with sauteed greens and toasted nuts.
Vanessa says
This stew looks delicious! You can't ever go wrong with an Oh She Glows recipe. My favourite simple meal is a giant salad loaded with raw or roasted vegetables, such as broccoli, sweet potato, beets, etc., drizzled with a tahini sauce.
Stephanie says
I have a thing about roasting cauliflower or broccoli in the oven with nothing more than a a little drizzle of olive oil, a couple pinches of salt, pepper, paprika, and chili flakes. So good and it brings out such a delicious flavour when they're nice a crispy! Paired with some quinoa, sliced cherry tomatoes, and a couple small wedges of roasted sweet potato, it's all set to go!
Julia says
One of my favorite go-to plant based meals is a thai peanut sauce over rice noodles and veggies. My comfort food. This stew looks amazing!
c says
Yum. My favorite these days is steamed rice with grated carrot and zucchini (steamed right in!) I'll top with roasted sweet potatoes or black beans and sliced avocado. So good.
joy says
a smoothie bowl is always fun and delicious, any time of day!
Brioke says
Fastest dinner ever: lentils mixed with bbq sauce, some kale over sliced polenta. Yum!
Lauren Mclellan says
Actually, my favourite go to is the African peanut stew from the Oh She Glows cookbook The chick peas and sweet potatoes make for a filling and delicious quick meal.
Martha says
I love making a tofu scramble. Usually with as many veggies as possible and whatever I have on hand. I sometimes even throw canned asparagus. So filling, easy, and I'm using all my veggies from market.
Shilpa says
This looks so good! Angela's book sounds wonderful.
Favourite meals lately have been steamed beets, sprouts and French lentils with a tangy dressing. Last week when it felt like fall it was a simple green lentil dal.
Rebecca @ Strength and Sunshine says
This looks so yummy and comforting!! So in need of some healthy hearty soup right now to cure me :O
Laura says
Some of my favourite meals are just an everything but the kitchen sink bowl - grain, bean, and lots of fresh produce topped with some kind of delicious sauce (especially if it is a nut butter sauce!!)
Annalisa says
With a new baby, quick meals are my new thing! One recent meal has been pita bread or tortilla loaded with hummus, olives, tomatos, sauerkraut, olives, lettuce, sprouts and more. Easy to make, yummy to eat!
Frances says
I love making bowls loaded with veggies, grains, and sweet potatoes and beets. I usually put a tahini dressing on top 🙂
Melissa says
Think I just found what I am going to be making for dinner this evening! This soup looks absolutely delicious!! One of my favourite go-to plant based meals around this time of year would have to be spelt pasta with marinara sauce, peas & hemp hearts! Ridiculously easy & super comforting!
Medha says
I am especially loving the cashew base and the green lentils in here- this soup looks so hearty and comforting 🙂 Pinning!
Laurie says
Man, I crave cooler days and that soup looks so cozy and delicious! I like a simple bowl of quinoa, roasted cauliflower & brussel sprouts, chickpeas and a tahini dressing.
Jenny says
This looks amazing! I loved her first book and I just know this one will be indispensable too. My favorite weeknight dinner is sweet potatoes with almond or coconut butter and steamed greens. Simple but so satisfying!
Cassy says
For summer, I love making a quick gazpacho to pack in tons of fresh garden veggies! Depending on how we're feeling, I'll serve it with some variation of avocado toast, or a simple greens salad with leftover grains and/or legumes (usually chickpeas).
Leah M | love me, feed me says
This stew is so perfect for these grey gloomy days we've been having! Ultimate comfort food! My go to meal is usually rice, steamed veggies, chickpeas, and tons of romaine lettuce piled on to. So simple, so good!
Erica Champion says
Burrito bowls! Avocado salsa, marinated kale, black beans, rice, cherry tomatoes and sometimes baked yam if I'm feeling fancy :).
