A well written gem for vegetarians with little time!

Don't let it's small size mislead you. This wonderful little book breaks new ground for creative cooks who are ready to bring their woks and stir fry pans out of retirement. Totally vegetarian, it should appeal to anyone who's seeking low-fat and healthy cooking alternatives. Susan Jane Cheney is a long-time contributor to Vegetarian Times and one of those wonderfully talented folks who've created wonders at Ithaca's famous Moosewood Restaurant. For Stir Crazy, Susan has teamed with author-illustrator Nava Atlas to create a little gem that is a joy to read and rewarding to use. She covers all the requisite wok basics, but this book excels in the delightful alternatives to stir fries -- creative vegetables, stews, curries, soups, and more. Many of these recipes are ethnically inspired and all of them are healthy and vegetarian. Moreover, all of the recipes really work!If you're looking for new ideas for your wok or stir-fry pan, if you are a vegetarian, or if yo! u simply enjoy reading creative cookbooks, you will love this book.
