Customer Reviews

WOW! Best vegan cookbook I've seen yet....

I absolutely love this cookbook - I've tried other vegan cookbooks and have returned them due to their not being a single recipe I would ever try, with ingredients that are extremely expensive and tough to find even in my local natural foods store. This one is a rare exception - every turn of the page revealed a recipe I can't wait to try...pasta bake with italian soy sausage, peanut dip, spinach salad with strawberries and spiced pecans, sticky pecan squares, and a "kids" section with recipes *I* want to make for myself! Each recipe also comes with tips for substitutions and suggested accompaniments. The authors have taken great pains to produce recipes that are easy and quick to make to fit in with a busy lifestyle, and tested on their own kids for "acceptability". This cookbook just about makes all my other cookbooks obsolete! FINALLY a vegan cookbook I can rave about!

Simple and Delicious Recipes

Often vegan recipes are complicated and require hard-to-find ingredients. This cookbook is just the opposite: the best I have ever found for easy to prepare and tasty meals. Try the appetizers (I love the Roasted Garlic and White Bean Dip and the Eggplant and Olive Dip) and any of the casseroles (my family loves the Mexican Casserole). The Sticky Pecan Squares are wonderful for dessert. This is definitely a cookbook that you will use on a regular basis!

A beautiful, user-friendly book

As a mother who is always trying to add more fruits and vegetables to my children's diets, this book is a godsend. The ingredients easy to find in conventional supermarkets, preparer-friendly, fast, and delicious. The appetizers, soups, salads and wraps sections are especially appealing to families on the go. Unusually attractive, we've turned to the book for lunch and dinner ideas many times already. Check out the eggplant and olive dip, and the leek and potato soup!

A cookbook for everyone!

This cookbook is great for vegans and non-vegans alike. I'm not a vegan, but have a couple of friends who are. In the past I've gotten stressed out about what to make when they come over for dinner but no more stress. Every recipe I've made so far has been delicious and not very time consuming to make. I also like the way the book is set up -- directions are clear and easy to follow, pan sizes, equipment needed are listed, tips are helpful.

A Staple in Your Cookbook Library

I am a non-vegan, always on the lookout for cookbooks that have healthy recipes with pizazz. This one should be in your library-- lots of flavorful dishes in a broad range of styles for a broad range of tastes, not timid, full of character. You will use this book at least once a week.
