Introduction
Cook:30 Philosophy This cookbook is all about how I cook at home. It uses the recipes from my Revive Cafs and Revive Caf Cookbooks, and combines them to create a complete meal in just 30 minutes. After running two successful vegetarian cafs for 10 years I have learned how to prepare food quickly and inject a lot of flavor without adding costly or unhealthful ingredients. I am not a nutritionist and do not get into the finer points of dietary philosophy (of which there is plenty debate). But believe in using simple, whole grain, plant-based food in my own diet, at home, and in my cookbooks and cafs. This means lots of fresh fruit and vegetables.
Whole grains like brown rice, oats, quinoa. Plant-based proteins like beans, nuts, lentils, and tofu. And making it taste awesome with international flavors and plenty of herbs and spices. Simple. I do not use meat, dairy, or seafood. I do not use white sugar, white flour, or other highly processed ingredients.
I avoid preservatives where I can. And while they do have their place on occasions, I do not use processed meat substitutes. My natural recipe selection, preparation shortcuts, and rustic presentation style would be scorned in most high level fine dining restaurants and cooking schools. However, in a home (and casual caf setting) they are quick to make, they are healthful, and they look and taste awesome! How Cook:30 was born After meeting me and viewing my cookbooks in New Zealand, Brenda Walsh invited me as a guest cook on her 3ABN Today program with her sisters in 2013. My wife, Verity, and I traveled to the US to film this and we had a lot of fun sharing some Revive meals on their program. About that time, Shelley Quinn (Program Development Manager) was looking for a new cooking program for the 3ABN channel.
Shelley asked me to share with her my vision for a cooking program. I explained that I would love to do a program that would portray the way I cook at home. Rather than having pre-measured ingredients sitting nicely on the counter ready for use, there would be multi-tasking, taking ingredients from the fridge and shelves, throwing in approximate amounts, and having several pots on the stove at once. Everything would be made from scratch and I would not use canned vegetarian meals or specialist productsjust common, healthy, plant-based foods that are readily available everywhere in the world. It would have a lot of close-up shots and be fast-paced just like a caf or home kitchen. While this type of program would surely be more work, it would more accurately reflect my style of cooking and would help viewers get a realistic picture of how they can cook healthy, whole food plant-based meals at home.
I thought perhaps my vision for the program may be too much of a departure from other 3ABN cooking shows. However, Shelley loved the concept and we immediately agreed to produce the series together. To make it even easier for people to adopt these new cooking skills, I decided it would be great to do a cookbook, which is what you are now holding. All of the photographs in this book were shot during the taping of the Cook:30 programs. My mission It is my mission in life to share with people how to eat and cook healthy. If you choose to put healthy food in your mouth, you will have a healthier body, get sick less often, reduce your chances of getting lifestyle diseases, and most likely live a lot longer.
However, over and above those reasons, the best part about eating and living healthy is that you will have so much energy and vitality, feel great, and be able to achieve your dreams in life! So give it a go, it is worth making the change, and I hope in this book and TV series that you will see how simple it can be. I would love to hear how you find these recipes and how they impact your life. Jeremy Dixon Contents
