"As seen in her new cookbook Plant-Based Cooking for Absolute Beginners, her cooking philosophy is meant to encourage people to make simple but filling and nourishing dishes that not only look beautiful but also taste great. This means instead of telling them exactly what ingredients are needed, Elgquist prefers to educate others about the kinds of textures and flavors they need. That way, even if they do not have a particular ingredient on hand, they can still create a delicious meal with what they have." —Forbes.com
