ABOUT SABRINA RUDIN:

Sabrina Rudin (@springbysabrina, 50.8k followers) is a creator and entrepreneur in the food and wellness space, and the founder and owner of Spring Café Aspen, an organic, vegetarian restaurant with locations in Aspen and New York City. While living in Aspen as a snowboard instructor, she realized the town lacked a healthy café with organic, nourishing, and vegetarian options and set out to solve the problem herself. The menu was inspired by the vegetarian restaurants of her childhood, and by her mother who was a pioneer in the natural foods and juicing movement, having studied under Anne Wigmor and at the Kushi Institute.

ABOUT THE "HEALTHY WITH A SIDE OF HAPPY":

Equal parts clean living guide and recipe collection, the book spans everything from the juices and smoothies that Spring Cafe is beloved for to hearty soups, plant-based pastas, and satisfying sweets. Alongside the recipes, Sabrina shares pantry guides, meal-prep strategies, and tips for creating a non-toxic kitchen—helping home cooks embrace wholesome eating with ease. Healthy with a Side of Happy is more than a cookbook; it's a roadmap to living with balance and intention, bringing nourishment and happiness into the home, and togetherness to everyday meals.
