Do you wish you could have your pasta, and eat it too? So do Sandra and Susan Sellani, twin sisters who transformed the traditional Italian comfort foods of their childhood into healthier, plant-based versions. Sandra, a west coast vegan, and Susan, an east coast omnivore, have collaborated to create a rational approach to getting started as a vegan for those over forty. The 40-Year-Old Vegan includes a 52-week plan to easily transition to a plant-based lifestyle, with old-fashioned, recognisable vegan recipes and a realistic vision for looking and feeling good in the second half of life without having to squeeze into a pair of size-two Spanx.
