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 Marathon Body Fueled With Kale

Written by Vegetarian Star on Friday, December 18th, 2009 in Female Musicians, Female Singers.

2009 Environmental Media Awards

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.

Alanis Morissette hosted a party for vegetarian cookbook author Anna Thomas recently, and the festivities included getting her hands down and deep into calcium rich kale.

Thomas is the author of Love Soup: 160 All-New Vegetarian Recipes from the Author of The Vegetarian Epicure, which was released in September of this year.

Thomas’s book contains recipes for a variety of soups, such as rustic leek and potato, minestrone, and tomato and fennel.

Love Soup, called “the most influential cookbooks in the history of modern vegetarian cuisine” by the Chicago Sun Times, is the handy guide you need for seasonal recipes to please palates at any party.

And it costs so much less than an appearance by Alanis.

Alanis Morissette “Health Magazine” December 2009

Written by Vegetarian Star on Saturday, November 14th, 2009 in Female Musicians, Female Singers, Food & Drink.

Environmental Media Awards 2009

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.
