Way beyond animal welfare, the diet is a nutritious, delicious and fun way to eat. Lose weight, clear your skin and get \"off-the-chart\" energy -- by forgoing meat and dairy. \"When was the last time doing something wonderful for yourself actually had amazing benefits for everyone else around you?\" she asks. Try these recipes, and see what she\'s talking about.

Alicia writes: \"These are delicious. Mochi waffles are fun and easy for everyday eating, but they\'re also great to offer guests. Serve with a bowl of steamed collards and some tempeh bacon or Smart Bacon, and you have a quick, fantastic brunch.\"

Moroccan Couscous with Saffron

Alicia writes: \"I adore couscous, and this is a wonderful way to prepare it. Not only is it tasty, it looks gorgeous on a big serving plate as the centerpiece of a meal. You can complement it with a simple salad or let it be the beginning of a feast that includes soup, hummus, and veggies. This recipe serves six, but you can halve it or just make a big batch and keep leftovers in the fridge.\"

Alicia writes: \"When my friend Liz first taught me how to make this pizza, she used an organic, sourdough spelt crust, but really any whole grain crust will do. This pizza is perfect for dinner parties or just a cozy night at home.\"

Alicia writes: \"I\'ve highlighted the bok choy version of this dish because it\'s so pretty, but this same recipe made with cabbage and leeks is just as delicious and worthy of equal attention. Christopher and I absolutely lived off cabbage and leeks for years. I beg you to try both versions. There\'s something about the combination of the flaxseed oil, the sour of the vinegar, the freshness of the green and the seeds... Oh my God.\"

Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups

Alicia writes: \"Back in the day, I was obsessed with Reese\'s Peanut Butter Cups. Now I make this healthier version and they are way better. In fact, I think they are the most ridiculously delicious things in the entire world. Look for graham crackers that are naturally sweetened or low in sugar (Health Valley makes a good one), and store the leftover crackers or crumbs in an airtight container for future use.\"
