Happy Skin Kitchen: Over 100 Plant-Based Recipes To Nourish Your Skin from the Inside Out

Rossi started the popular blog Happy Skin Kitchen to explain how she managed hormonal cystic acne through plant-based eating. This companion cookbook shares her recipes and also offers a good entry point into eating habits that don’t always match someone’s culinary culture. Rossi explains that she had to find ways to bridge gaps between her health concerns and her Italian heritage—and it’s lovely that she did, since that reconciliation resulted in recipes that focus on eating a variety of plants, pulses, and fermented foods, while also providing advice about slowing down to savor things and live a little more intentionally. She shares her philosophy of beauty beginning on the inside, along with her 15 beauty food heavy-hitters, before providing recipes for everything from porridges and muesli to “happy skin bowls,” and desserts free of refined sugar.
