Brown Rice Stuffed Pepper
Servings: 4
1. Cut across the pepper at the stem end and carefully scoop out the seeds and excess pulp. This constitutes the cap of the finished dish. Retain the stem of the cap for a nicer presentation.
2. In a bowl, mix the brown rice, shallot, celery, kale, parsley, nuts, vinegar, and lemon juice and zest. Essentially, this is a brown rice salad. Taste it and adjust acidity and other flavors.
Optional: You can add black pepper in your rice mix. And if you want more heat, add 1 finely chopped jalapeno or as much as you desire.
3. Fill each hollowed out pepper with the brown rice salad.
4. Place the stuffed peppers on a baking sheet, replace the cap, and roast in the oven at 350°F for 45 minutes. Allow the roasted peppers to cool a bit.
5. Serve as is or with a side salad.

The Heart Healthy Plant-Based Cookbook by Jenneffer Pulapaka, DPM and Chef Hari Pulapaka
As someone looking to transition into cooking more often at home, The Heart Healthy Plant-Based Cookbook by Jenneffer and Chef Hari Pulapaka has been a game-changer for me. This book is much more than a collection of recipes; it’s a guide to making health-conscious choices in the kitchen. Chef Hari Pulapaka’s reputation in the culinary world speaks for itself, and it’s clear he brings his expertise to every page.The layout is refreshingly detailed, with recipes categorized by meal type and further broken into subcategories, which makes it easy to plan out balanced meals for the entire day. Today, I tried my hand at avocado toast and was pleasantly surprised by how easy it was to follow. I didn’t have the Bajarat spice the recipe called for, but the book includes instructions for making certain spices and extras from scratch—a feature that has made it the most comprehensive cookbook I own.One of the aspects I appreciate most is the emphasis on heart health and vascular disease prevention, a critical focus given the prevalence of these conditions in the United States. Each recipe is crafted to support a healthier lifestyle, aligning with my own goals.Whether you’re a novice or experienced in the kitchen, this cookbook offers something unique: the chance to explore flavorful, plant-based recipes that don’t compromise on health. If you’re looking to build a healthy cooking habit and need inspiration from a seasoned chef, I highly recommend this book.

A Soaring Journey to Flavor, Texture and Delights (and you get healthy too!)
Sixteen years ago, while on travel, I found a small, new restaurant that offered at least one vegetarian meal each night. That venue was the launchpad from which Hari Pulapaka’s cuisine has soared. But, from the start, he partnered with his wife, who was the persistent vegetarian that made sure the menu always brought me back.Now, fully plant-based in our home, we had always hoped this amazing couple would go full-on and produce the one, singular cookbook we keep hoping to find.This cookbook is an extraordinary extension of all that both of them have learned about how to create extraordinary dishes and meals, while improving your health with every bite. In all of his creations, Hari displays his mathematical instincts for balance, precision, and expression–concise, powerful cuisine that always earns your “ahh’s” and delight.But what this new collection of his innovations also delivers are recipes and instructions that all of us can execute! So often, a renowned chef can produce books that boggle the mind and collect dust–they are just too hard to use in the kitchen. This is not one of those books. And the illustrations are proof that they really have prepared the dishes and, yes, you can also prepare a meal that looks just as good as the picture in this jewel of a publication.So, enjoy, savor, dog-ear the pages of your favorites, scratch notes on the recipes to record your variations or experiments and go back and enjoy again. Eat well and live a longer, healthier life.

Heart Healthy and delicious
What a beautiful book! I was so excited when it arrived in the mail. The book is beautifully written and accessible to newer cooks like myself. It features recipes from all over the world and if you thought plant based cooking would be dull, think again! I liked the heart healthy notes and the photographs made my mouth water! Thank you to Hari and Jenneffer for this beautiful creation!!!

A wonderful and informative cookbook
This cookbook is a combination of great recipes and all their healthy benefits. The recipes are easy to follow well thought out. I love the information on why it’s healthy. I’ve enjoyed each recipe that I’ve tried. It’s nice to have a fresh perspective on what and why we should be eating.

Great cookbook to add to your collection!
I received the book and opened the package immediately. I’ve been looking forward to this book. It’s a perfect blend of science backed nutrition and great and accessible recipes for all levels of cooks. It’s an interesting read in the front of the book with the knowledge and science for a heart healthy diet. Each recipe also has heart healthy information for the ingredients used. The recipes are a great blend of different kinds of cuisines. So you can experiment with different flavors from different cultures and all the recipes are heart healthy but with intense flavors. So many creative recipes. In the back of the recipes there are different spice blends, marinades, chutneys and sauces that can be used everyday. I know that this is supposed to be a heart healthy cookbook, and it is, but it’s just a great cookbook with flavor forward recipes for everyone. I recommend this book for everyone.

So many wonderful recipes!
I like how this cookbook begins with the importance of the 6 pillars of a heart healthy lifestyle and gives tips for each of the pillars and then lists the key components needed in a whole food plant based diet. There are so many choices in each category and each recipe gives a “Heart Health Note” and a difficulty level. I love the pictures that accompany some of the recipes because it allows me to see how to plate the final dish which adds to my visual experience before tasting the food.With so many recipes to choose from, I find that it will be a hard decision on what to try first as they all sound so wonderful. I am looking forward to expanding the plant based ingredients and spices that I use. I love this cookbook so much that I bought 2 more to give as gifts to my aunts
