In previous albums, lead vocalist Alex Ebert sings along with Jade Castrinos, and they have complimented each other well. However, Jade and Edward Sharpe have now parted ways.

The first half of the book is about the importance of a plant-based lifestyle. He breaks down common myths, questions,= and problems people have regarding a plant-strong lifestyle (Can I get enough protein? What about a B-12 or iron or calcium deficiency? But real men eat meat!), and answers them in a to-the-point and easy-to-read way. The second half of the book is 140+ delicious plant-based, oil-free, meat-free and dairy-free recipes; one of my favorite recipes is <a href=\"http:\/\/engine2diet.com\/recipe\/black-beans-and-brown-rice-extravaganza\/\">Black Beans &amp; Brown Rice Extravaganza<\/a> (although we use a lot more chili powder at home).<\/p>\n<p>I feel like there is a lot of processed food in the book, but that can easily be swapped for fresh if you are willing to take a little time and plan ahead. \u201cEngine 2\u201d was a blessing and wonderful
