The Greatest Cookbook...seriously!

These recipes are fantastic and easy. I've made so many of them after work for dinner that night. Especially great are the golden lentil soup and the black bean recipe. Delish!

Great veggie cookbook

I've had this cookbook for a while now and have managed to make tons of the recipes, there are always more I want to try. Some have become favorites, I often get asked for the recipe of a dish from this book that I bring to a potluck, and I have generally had great results with the recipes I've tried. There have been a few recipes that did not turn out so well. The Thai Bean Cakes turned out being kind of like home made falafel gone wrong. They just fell apart and didn't taste that great. The sauce was time consuming to make and not too delicious. The downside in general would be that her time estimates are a bit off, sometimes it takes hours to make a dish, others are quick (especially once you get the hang of it). All in all I totally recommend it. It's my favorite of the 5 or so veg cookbooks I have and it had some unique, delicious, and beautiful dishes. If I'm trying to cook to impress for parties, etc. I almost always turn to this book, though there are some dishes that are easy and quick enough to be regular dinner staples too. Fav dishes from it include: chickpea flour cakes w/ fresh salsa, niçoise salad, and mushroom & nut pate en croute
