Make plants the centre of every plate! We’re talking veg-centric meals with Main Character Energy.

Elly Smart (@ellysplate) dishes up a feast of plant-based recipes, from crispy garlic parm roasties and creamy plant-based lasagne, to sticky hot “honey” halloumi-style burgers and espresso martini churros.

With more than 75 plant-based dishes to take you from weekday breakfasts to weekend treats, with decadent snacks and sharing plates, and easy dinner party centrepieces.

Elly is an expert in plant-based recipe development, and has some of the smartest tricks for getting nourishing ingredients into your diet without you even noticing. All of Elly''s plates are all nutritionally balanced and packed with protein, while being super tasty, satisfying, and low effort, using simple ingredients and store-cupboard staples.

Make a fresh start with chocolate breakfast chia pots and Elly’s reset quinoa bowl, get ahead with meal prep with smokey chorizo tacos, and pile your plate with secret veg in a green skillet lasagne.
Enjoy simple 10-minute dinners for cosy nights at home, and indulge in courgette (kind of) carbonara, comforting hug-in-a-bowl date stew, or creamy coconut and tofu noodle soup.

This is big on flavour without compromise – food that’s good for you and the planet.
