Maya Sozer of the vegan blog Dreamy Leaf has a playful way with her recipe creation. My favorite chapter in Easy Vegan Breakfasts and Lunches is most definitely "Smart Snacks." Case in point: Peanut Butter Banana Pancakes. Pancakes not your thing? Maybe a Strawberry Parfait Popsicle would start your morning off right. The recipes are mostly quick and easy to make and are filled with flavor. Sozer marries plant-based foods with ethnic and diverse food styling and comes up with a tasty, creative union.
