My New Cookbook: Plant-Based Pacific 🌴


Hi Reader,

I know it's been a while but I didn't want to leave you out!

After many years in the making, I finally published my new cookbook!

Plant-Based Pacific: Vegan Island Flavors from Hawai‘i, Japan and the Philippines

video preview

Embark on a journey to the Pacific Islands from your own kitchen! As a half-Filipina who has lived in Japan and the Hawaiian Islands, Cristina Carolan offers an intimate look into these rich culinary traditions. Through delicious vegan recipes, cultural insights, and creative ways to make traditional meals more compassionate, both locals and food explorers will find inspiration in this plant-based cookbook.

With 70+ vegan recipes for appetizers, breakfasts, special sauces, family-style meals, and desserts, Plant-Based Pacific brings a wide range of island flavors to your table. Enjoy festive menus and discover how to create balanced meals.

  • Experience a Filipino kamayan feast and eat with your hands!
  • Learn what makes up an ‘ono Hawaiian plate lunch.
  • Treat yourself to Japanese comfort food favorites like curry rice and udon.

You'll also explore exotic ingredients, uncover must-visit destinations, and find inspiration to bring a little more island style into your life!
