The festive season is such a fun and special time that we adore with our loved ones. We look forward to the time of great connection with family and friends, endless social events, the festive vibes, and of course, the plant-based feasts. We know that this can be a challenging time for plant-based inclusion, to cook for your loved ones and to have them cook for you.
To be of service to you, we have partnered with our sister sustainable brand, Coconut Bowls, to curate a brand new eBook called ‘A Sustainable Plant Based Christmas’. This cookbook is not for sale but will be gifted for FREE with every purchase made on Coconut Bowls from NOW until the 31st of December, 2019.
Alongside the festive decorations, the lights, the gifts, the traditions comes the epitome of consumerism, and as a result, our landfill and oceans pay the price. We want to show that it is possible to have an incredibly rich and abundant festive season, whilst being mindful of the sustainability of our incredible environment; particualrly at a time that is so important in history.
We curated this guide to make this a little easier, and so that you can have an epic feast that is good for your soul, your health and for the planet.

In Part 1 of this 109-page plant-based cookbook, you will find an abundance of festive feasts from creative breakfasts and main dishes, to wholesome sides and salads. In light of the indulgent theme, there is an entire section on festive treats, from amazing plant platters and traditional desserts, to raw desserts and smoothies served in Coconut Bowls, of course. Finally, you will find festive drink ideas, from gingerbread latte’s to mocktails and cocktails.
Part 2, the Sustainability section, is very close to our hearts. You will find an editorial article on ‘How to Host a Sustainable Party’, guides to wrapping presents sustainably (giving to the planet, too) following our Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Refuse strategy, as well as seven conscious gifting ideas that follow our Thoughtful, Experiential, Memorable and Sustainable gifting strategy. It also includes an editorial aimed to increase carbon consciousness, and awareness of how we can offset our festive season from our conscience. Finally, we have offered some tips on how to open your heart to the planet and importantly, how to sustain your precious self.
