SOS-Free: Recipe Books
23 Dec 2022
Disclaimer
In recent years, many Whole Food Plant-Based SOS-Free recipe books have emerged! SOS stands for Salt, Oil & Sugar. All recipes are salt-free (no sea salt, no Himayalan salt, no pink salt, …), without a drop of oil (no coconut oil, no olive, no EVOO, no avocado oil, no oil whatsoever) and without a pinch of sugar! Is it possible to make flavorful meals without SOS? Yes!
