In this episode of I AM HUMAN, Chef AJ, a leading voice in the plant-based movement, tells us about her newest book, Sweet Indulgence, why she wrote it, how it's different from other dessert cookbooks, and why using whole fruit as a natural sweetener is beneficial for health. We talk about her favorite, best, and ‘most surprising’ recipes. It's a short, but sweet episode that is sure to intrigue!
Listen in as we discuss the benefits of using natural sweeteners like dates, bananas, pears, and apples, and the transformative potential of whole fruits in dessert-making. Whole fruits provide essential nutrients, fiber, and lower caloric density compared to processed sugars. Chef AJ's story and her mission to become a New York Times bestselling author may inspire you to try her new book (and get tons of extras with your purchase with the link below) and its innovative recipes.
Chef AJ has championed a plant-exclusive diet for over 46 years and was the host of Healthy Living with CHEF AJ on Foody TV. An acclaimed chef, culinary instructor, and speaker, she is the author of three bestselling books, including The Secrets to Ultimate Weight Loss and *Unprocessed*. Known for her innovative vegan desserts at LA’s Santé Restaurant, Chef AJ now shares her expertise on CHEF AJ LIVE! across multiple platforms. Inducted into the Vegetarian Hall of Fame in 2018, she created the Ultimate Weight Loss Program, transforming countless lives.
