The New York Times bestselling author of The Blue Zones Kitchen uncovers the roots of America’s plant-forward cuisines in this culinary road trip.

100 Blue Zones recipes from some of America’s most under-recognized, plant-forward communities, fusing international food traditions in ingenious, uniquely American ways.


In Dan Buettner’s Netflix documentary Live to 100: Secrets of the Blue Zones, viewers discovered the blue zones—the five places around the world where people consistently live to 100, and the keys to their longevity. 

Creating a Blue Zone here at home is easier than ever, thanks to the vegetarian recipes in this inspiring book. Buettner’s tour of the regions and cultures that have shaped America’s healthiest food landscapes shows the wisdom of heritage cooks found right in our backyard.

• Indigenous, Native, and Early American: Aina Momona Stew with Taro, Breadfruit, and Sweet Potato 
• African American: Hoppin’ John with Carolina Gold Rice and Sapelo Red Peas 
• Latin American: Mama’s Zucchini Pupusas 
• Asian American: Uttapam (Savory Lentil Pancakes)
