So glad I finally got Jill Nussinow's Vegan Under Pressure! Everything we've made has been delicious and flavorful and it's really helped to learn how to use my Instant Pot.
I'm just kicking myself I didn't get this cookbook sooner! I figured I could just find recipes on the internet, but it has been SO helpful to have a cookbook specifically for Whole Food Plant-Based eating and the Instant Pot.
I bought the Kindle version of the book so I could get it quickly and just look on my phone, but I love it so much I think I'll buy the real book! I highly recommend it!

I just want to take a moment to thank you for your cookbook, The New Fast Food. My husband, who has embraced the plant-based lifestyle for 1.5 years now after a heart attack at 42 years old, would still not eat sweet potatoes…..until your smoky sweet potato black bean chili! We've tried and loved many recipes from your book. He is one of those guys who finds 5 or 10 recipes he likes and doesn't need variety, so he's always hesitant when I make something new, but every time I slip in one of yours, they make his top 10 list! thanks again!

You are helping people change their lives for sure, my husband lost 70+ pounds and is off cholesterol and high blood pressure meds by going plant strong - you give a gift that is more valuable than any other because, to me, there is nothing more precious than our health and well-being.
Tonight I am making the Mixed Vegetable Curry that I received in the welcome email you send after email sign up on your website. I can't wait to try it

I have mastered brown rice to perfection and beans (all kinds) in the pressure cooker. Your recipes are so good that we stopped going to restaurants. We stimulate the economy by supporting a local CSA, a local co-op health food store and our local farmers markets. We feel really good about that, and donate our change to the SPCA.

The thrill of pressure cooking is the suspense you have just before you open the pot. It is so different than cooking on a stove and watching your food cook. With a pressure cooker, the colors and the smell are like a mysterious creation.
My first attempt at pressure cooking was the black eyed pea soup in Jill's book The New Fast Food. It was fun to make and it was delicious. The spices were great too. It was a 'taste bud delight.''

I just wanted to send you a quick note about how much I love pressure cooking now, thanks to your book The New Fast Food. I own two pressure cookers, and have been amazed by how much easier it is now to cook beans, and grains quickly and with no fuss. I've tried several recipes and enjoyed those as well. I must admit, now that I know how to use the pressure cooker cooking beans is my favorite thing of all!

I purchased a pressure cooker some time ago but was afraid to use it. I never could find a good cookbook until I found The New Fast Food book. I purchased it and I love it. It's my new best friend. I wanted some apple sauce but didn't like what I found at any of the stores. I purchased some red apples to make my own in my pressure cooker. I found before I got started I needed one more item, a food mill. I purchased that and the next day I made the most delicious applesauce I have ever eaten. I only used the whole apples cut in quarters, water, and two cinnamon sticks. I also made the Sicilian Farro, Cauliflower, Mushroom and Tempeh Stew. I have never eaten Farro or Tempeh before and I loved it. My next venture is going to be Garlicky Tempeh and Vegetable Stew. I am no longer afraid of my pressure cooker and use it almost daily. I also love to cook my kale in it as well. Thank you Jill for writing such a good book.

I just wanted to tell you how much I love your cookbook Vegan Under Pressure. It's definitely my favorite "go to" book. The Red Beauty Vegetable Sauce is now a staple in my frig. I love the Posole Chili as well. Then, all the wonderful burgers! I could go on and on.
My husband had a heart attack in late December and although plant-based eating isn't new to us, your recipes have taken our meals to new heights! Again, thanks for a wonderful recipe collection.
