In this collection of over 80 delicious, plant-based recipes, nutritionist, blogger, and author of The Vegan Week explores one simple meal planning formula: a grain, a green, and a bean.

“Gena’s fun formula, made accessible by her bright recipes, is for anyone who wants to consume fewer animal products (me) and not feel unsated doing so (also me).”—Emma Laperruque, associate director of cooking at Bon Appétit and Epicurious

This simple trinity of foods lends itself to endless possibilities. Gena Hamshaw expands on the nourishing and economical trio with meals that include not only dark, leafy greens, whole grains, and beans, but also pasta, bread, zucchini, edamame, and tofu. She offers an approach to wholesome vegan eating that's welcoming and adaptable to any lifestyle. 

Keeping busy schedules in mind, A Grain, a Green, a Bean includes time-saving methods and formulas, including sheet-pan meals and one-pot wonders. Bring the beans and grains in your pantry to life with recipes such as: 

• Bowls & Salads: Baked Pita, Crispy Chickpeas, and Spinach with Curried Cauliflower and Beet Couscous, Cheesy Tofu, and Watercress
• Beans and Greens on Bread: Kidney Beans and Kale over Savory Waffles and French Onion Brothy Beans and Greens with Garlic Toast
• Stovetop Meals: Red Wien Braised Mushrooms and French Lentils with Farro and Gochujang Pasta with Scallions, Kale, and Edamame
• Oven to Table: Spinach Lasagna Rolls and Sheet Pan Shawarma-Spiced Soy Curls and Freekeh
• Basics: Cashew Sour Cream and Eggy Tofu
• Sweet Things: Freezer Fruit Crumble and Olive Oil Cake

These recipes serve as flashes of inspiration for when you've looked in your cabinets ten times for dinner ideas and still don't know what to make. A Grain, a Green, a Bean will quickly set you up to create an array of beautifully balanced grain bowls, soups, salads, toast, and more—with the promise of endless possibilities to keep you inspired.

Introduction

Picture this: It’s dinnertime. Your fridge is at least semi-stocked with produce. Your pantry contains a few cans of beans and maybe a bag of rice, quinoa, or farro. There’s a bookshelf somewhere nearby that’s lined with cookbooks, and those cookbooks are littered with Post-it notes flagging the recipes you’ve been wanting to try. If you were to open your phone, you might find a cooking app or two. You’ve saved more recipes in Instagram and TikTok than you can count.

In spite of this, and the growling of your stomach as you stare blankly at the kitchen countertop, you have no idea what to cook. Does this sound familiar? If it does, you’re not alone.

I’ve been cooking and writing about food for nearly fifteen years. I have an ample cookbook collection, including a few titles of my own, each filled with recipes I know and love. Like most home cooks nowadays, there’s no shortage of accounts I follow on social media for new ideas and inspiration. Even so, I find myself frequently stumped when I ask myself the question: What’s for dinner?

For better or for worse, I’m not the only one. Plenty of capable home cooks find themselves in the same scenario, with plenty of recipes at their fingertips and no dinner plan in sight. Given the multitude of cooking resources available to us online and in print, it shouldn’t be this hard, right?

Perhaps what’s needed isn’t another recipe (let alone a giant collection of random recipes) but rather, a formula. This formula can get you thinking strategically about using the ingredients and foods you already have at home to create a meal you’re excited to eat. If you’re a loyal recipe follower, as I am, then you can use the formula to help you narrow your choices and make selections from the many cookbooks at your disposal.

If you’re going to trust in a formula, then it ought to be one that promises good and balanced nutrition as well as a pleasing meal: a quality protein source, energy-sustaining carbohydrates, healthful fats, and plenty of vegetables. If this meal can be relatively complete on its own, sparing you the effort of whipping up a bunch of additional side dishes or accompaniments, so much the better.

Years of feeding myself through times of busyness and times of stillness, periods of culinary inspiration and dreaded food ruts, have helped me to settle on a formula I love and want to share. Ready for it?

A grain, a green, and a bean.
