Plant-based Chef Suzi Gerber is someone I go to often for advice on food. She’s the author of the new book, “The Plant-Based Gourmet” which is available now for pre-order.

I asked Chef Suzi to teach me a recipe that was Diana-proof since while I may be learning how to cook, I still can’t follow a full recipe to save my life. She decided she’d teach me (and you) an easy vegan recipe for dried black bean chips and creamy hummus.
