Ashley Melillos Blissful Basil has it all: sumptuous, creative recipes; bold and beautiful photography; and plenty of user-friendly tips on how to easily transition into plant-centric cooking. Whats most special about this collection, though, is the power of Ashleys personal narrative of healing through colorful, nourishing, and wholesome meals. These are the recipes that transformed Ashleys life, and her passion and gratitude shines through each and every bite.

Gena Hamshaw, author of Food52 Vegan and Choosing Raw

This is way more than a cookbook. Its a coming-of-age story ... that happens to have really incredible recipes and beautiful food. Ashley is a true inspiration and her encouraging, nonjudgmental, and nurturing wisdom makes you feel like anything is possible.

Jessica Murnane, author of One Part Plant and host of the One Part Podcast

Ashleys Blissful Basil cookbook is beyond beautiful! Ashley is one of my all-time favorite bloggers and now authors because her recipes are always colorful, nourishing, and inspiring. I love that Ashleys cookbook contains loads of comfort food favorites like nachos and creamy soups, as well as creative plant-based classics like morning smoothies and chia bowls, beet balls, dairy-free cheese, and more. Along with her delicious recipes, she adds a beautiful piece of her soul to each project.

Kathy Patalsky, blogger at HealthyHappyLife.com and cookbook author

Ashleys photos are stunning and do an amazing job of showing off how gorgeous fresh plants are in their natural form. She brings life to food in a delicious and wholesome way. Im pretty sure my life will be 200 percent improved once I make the Sweet Potato Cinnamon Rolls with Maple Glaze. This book is full of practical information about ingredients, techniques, and new ways of thinking about how and what we eat. Its a must for anyone looking to get more thoughtful with whats on their plate.

This book is for everyone.
But naming every person would be quite the task,
so Ill name just one...

Thank you for reminding me to be brave,
opening my heart to the adventures I was once afraid of,
and unconditionally sharing your optimistic warmth.
You are my love, my teacher, and my daily source of laughter.

Rooted Habits

One humid summer evening in 2010, I started a food blog on a whim. I was in graduate school at the time and figured it would be a fun hobby during a leisurely summer semester. Well, its been six years since I shared that first post, and I think its safe to say that blogging turned out to be much more than a steamy summer fling. It has been one of the most joyful, worthwhile, and transformative endeavors of my life.

Over the years, Blissful Basil has been a place for me to share not only recipes, but also life stories. And Ive shared lots of them. Some of the stories have been happy, some have been sad, and some have even been funnylike the time I lost a shoe during a job interview. But theres a story I havent shared, and its probably the most important one to tell because its shaped everything from the way I think to the foods I eat. It wasnt always peace, self-love, and kale salads up in here.

THE UNTOLD STORY

To build a sturdy, unshakable house, you must first build a sturdy, unshakable foundation. That concrete foundation might not be the most glamorous or appealing part of the house, or the part you want to show off at a dinner party, but without it, every other part would eventually crumble. You could create a facade of beauty and strength by bracing the houses roof with steel beams, lining its walls with slabs of stone and its floors with polished marble, and filling its rooms with high-tech gadgets, but it would always be weakened by the instability of the ground beneath it.

In my late teens and early twenties, I gave great care and attention tending to my facade. I honestly and wholeheartedly believed I could guarantee my happiness by looking a certain way, studying my way to a well-respected career as a psychologist, and presenting myself as someone who had it all together. I took so much care in hiding my insecurities from others that I managed to hide them from myself, too. As someone who is a rule-follower to a fault, I was careful not to look too deeply into myself for fear that I would then be obligated to see my truth: I was anxiety-ridden and cared more about what other people thought of me than I cared about myself.
