500 Vegan Recipes

Alanis Morissette has put a photo of her latest favorite cookbook on Twitter.

500 Vegan Recipes: An Amazing Variety of Delicious Recipes, from Chilis and Casseroles to Crumbles, Crisps, and Cookies is just of the vegan books that have changed Alanis’ life.

It was a copy of Dr. Joel Fuhrman‘s Eat to Live that prompted her to go vegan.

Not wanting another fad diet, she was motivated by preventing disease and loss weight was an added consequence.

She now fills her plate with foods like fruit, nuts, collards, kale, and spinach.

Alanis Morissette has confessed to some serious kale addiction.

Maybe she and Kristen Bell should get together more often.

The singer who calls herself “90% vegan” said, “I eat kale salad. I put kale in my smoothies, kale in my soup. Kale, kale, kale! I feel like Popeye. I love it. I definitely need variety or I get super bored, so I have to mix it up with different sauces and tahini or whatever.”

That explains why one of her most recent parties was hooking up with vegetarian author Anna Thomas and digging her fingers through the fresh vegetable.

Alanis is currently training for the Biz Johnson marathon, which she says isn’t hurt at all by her vegan friendly diet.

“I think veganism is really well suited for training, at least for me anyway.”

Alanis is featured in the January 2010 issue of Runner’s World.

You outta know that Alanis Morissette has been following a mostly vegan diet after picking up a copy of Dr. Joel Fuhrman‘s book, Eat To Live.

Alanis recently interviewed with Health Magazine where she discussed her diet habits, including the fact she loves to put a pat of vegan butter on her popcorn.

“I love snacking on popcorn with balsamic vinegar, vegan butter, and all kinds of spices.”

Thank goodness Alanis has grown to enjoy good food, which is a stark contrast from her eating disorder teen years.

“As a teen, I was both anorexic and bulimic. I was a young woman in the public eye, on the receiving end of a lot of attention, and I was trying to protect myself from men who were using their power in ways I was too young to know how to handle. Disappointment, sadness and pain hit me hard, and I tried to numb those feelings through my relationship with food. For four to six months at a time, I would barely eat. I lived on a diet of Melba toast, carrots, and black coffee,” “I began recovering at 18, when a sweet friend confronted me.”

And like Woody Harrelson, Alanis discovered a vegan diet is acne’s nightmare.

“I rarely eat dairy. I’ll never forget my friend Woody Harrelson telling me I needed to get rid of the dairy in my fridge to clear up my skin. He was right. My skin looks great now.”

You can read Alanis’ full story in the December 2009 issue of Health magazine.

Cause she’s got one hand in her pocket, and the other one grabbing a soy milk.

Once upon a time, Canadian diva Alanis Morissette was a strict vegetarian. Then she started to indulge in processed food here and there thinking as long as she kept everything in moderation, she’d be okay.

Fast forward 20 pounds later and feeling sluggish in the morning, Alanis decided it was time to go back, this time going all the way to being vegan.

She followed an eating plan outlined in the book Eat to Live, by Dr. Joel Fuhrman, a physician associated with the Physicians Committee For Responsible Medicine, which recommends shunning meat and dairy.

She spoke to Ok! Magazine about her new body which she said makes her feel 12 years old again about how she happened to discover Dr. Fuhrman’s book.

“I went to my favorite bookstore, Banyen Books and Sound, in Vancouver. I saw this book, Eat to Live, and I thought, that’s exactly what I want to do. I wasn’t interested in some fad diet that was unsustainable, like “lose 10 pounds in two weeks.” I don’t believe in diets; I think they’re short-term and a bit of an emotional roller-coaster. So I opened it and flipped through and thought the weight loss is incidental. The primary focus is disease prevention.”
