Vegan, non-GMO, free from gluten and the most common nine allergens, Parktake’s classic pancake and waffle mix—with no peanuts, eggs, dairy, soy, tree nuts, sesame or artificial flavors and colors—is (perhaps surprisingly) appetizing. The base is a blend of gluten-free flours, including organic light buckwheat flour and tapioca flour, with potato starch, oat milk powder and organic fair trade cane sugar. Just add water to the plant-based mix, and the resulting pancakes will be the perfect texture and color, making them just as enticing as traditional ones. Founder Denise Woodard (who created Partake when her daughter was diagnosed with various food allergies) also donates to No Kid Hungry and Black Futures in Food & Beverage. Price is for three boxes.

Both a moving tale of Chakour’s journey and a useful resource on plants and nature, this book inspires self-growth in multiple ways.
