About the Book
In this debut collection, Max La Manna sets out his signature 'more plants, less waste' philosophy, bridging the gap between vegan cooking and a genuinely low-waste lifestyle. The book delivers 80 recipes built around minimising food waste, from comforting classics reimagined as plant-based dishes to inventive ways of using up odds and ends in the fridge.

Beyond the recipes, the book is threaded with practical zero-waste life hacks covering storage, batch cooking, and smarter shopping, helping readers build habits that reduce both food waste and household spend. Richly illustrated with around 80-100 colour photographs across 224 pages, it's as satisfying to browse as it is to cook from. The book was recognised as Most Sustainable Cookbook at the 2020 Gourmand World Cookbook Awards, cementing its place as a benchmark title in the sustainable cooking space.
