Featured Guest at Food Fest
Author, recipe creator and blogger, Brandi Doming, will be at the Omaha Food Fest for a very special appearance. She is the creator of The Vegan 8 blog (thevegan8.com) and the author of both The Vegan 8 Cookbook and her newest release, Vegan Wholesome Cookbook. Brandi loves simplicity when it comes to cooking (as in 8 ingredients or less) and creates recipes that anybody can make, whether a novice in the kitchen or an experienced cook. She creates health-focused recipes, using whole foods to improve health, while maximizing flavor and texture, and teaches how to create healthy, balanced plant-based meals that everybody will love.
The Omaha Food Fest will feature “A Conversation with Brandi” where Brandi will share her secrets for creating simple, but delicious whole food plant-based dishes, share some of the health success stories she has witnessed, answer questions about her work and many other topics.
Brandi will also be personally signing copies of her books at the event. We are offering an opportunity to advance purchase either or both of her books at: healthyforalifetime.org/vegan8books. As only a limited number of books will be available for purchase at the event, pre-ordering through our website will guaranty the books you want will be available for you to pick up at the event. All proceeds will benefit the Omaha nonprofit, Lifestyle Health Alliance that is organizing this free event, so please consider purchasing a book to help offset some of the expenses associated with this event. The link to place an order is: healthyforalifetime.org/vegan8books
