Description:

Think plant-based cooking takes too much time? Rip Esselstyn and producer Carrie Barrett are here to prove otherwise. In this energizing mini-episode, the duo dismantles one of the biggest myths around a whole food, plant-based lifestyle—that it’s complicated and time-consuming.

With a mix of personal stories and practical strategies, Rip and Carrie show how to make plant-based meals fast, fun, and family-friendly. From the “bowl build” method to frozen food shortcuts, they reveal how simple tweaks can transform cooking into an easy, joyful part of your day.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why plant-based cooking can actually be faster than traditional cooking once you get over the initial hump.
  • How frozen fruits, veggies, and grains can slash prep time without sacrificing taste or nutrition.
  • The “build a bowl” approach—customizable, colorful, and stress-free.
  • Simple ways to batch cook with tools like the Instant Pot for easy weekday meals.
  • How to reimagine familiar favorites like pizza and tacos into plant-strong staples.

Discover how to spend less time in the kitchen—and more time enjoying vibrant, plant-strong meals.
