Description
In his youth, Mark worked at two pizza parlors, and it was there that his initial interest in making pizza began. Several years later, he became vegetarian, and after watching a friend effortlessly make pizzas at home for a couples dinner party, became re-focussed on learning to do the same himself in a non-restaurant environment. After going vegan, Mark began exploring making totally plant-based pizzas. During this period he came to the conclusion that a cookbook based on these recipes would help vegetarians kick the cheese need. The path and his approach changed considerably when learning of Dr. Caldwell Esselstyn’s peer-reviewed research demonstrating that a no-added fat plant-based diet can not only reverse heart disease, but in theory, prevent it. Mark decided to incorporate this knowledge into his recipes and make them all truly “heart healthy.”
