4.0 out of 5 stars This is a great addition to your vegetarian bookshelf, November 8, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Beyond the Moon Cookbook: More Vegetarian Recipes From the Author of Horn of the Moon Cookbook (Paperback)

Having been vegetarian for several years, I am always looking for new books to add to my collection. All the recipes that I've tried in this book have been pretty good, but by far the best feature in my mind is the muffin recipes. They are all honey sweetened, which is great for those who can't/don't do sugar. But this is the only cookbook I have where the muffins turn out like those huge ones you find in the store. Every single muffin recipe I've tried has come out of the oven overflowing the muffin cups and tasting great. This is definitely worth the money if you are a muffin lover!

I got this book for Christmas a few years back, and didn't really open it for a while. I wish I'd opened it sooner -- everything I've tried has been good. My boyfriend, who's new to cooking anything other than roasted meat, has found all the beginner-starred recipes to be simple and fairly fool-proof. Most of the dishes we've tried have a down-home, comfort food feel, and are quite filling.

One note: most things we've made have been a little on the bland side -- I'd suggest doubling all spice amounts for anything that's supposed to be spicy. Also, almost everything has needed a little extra salt, but that's easily remedied by a shaker on the table.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful Cookbook, May 8, 1999

This is my favorite cookbook! After sitting down at each meal I found myself saying "yum . . . this tastes like gourmet food . . .!! My spouse loves all the recipes and is thrilled when ever I'm thumbing through the book looking for stuff to cook. I want to thank Ginny for publishing such a wonderful cookbook. I have wanted to thank her personally, but I haven't gotten around to writing a letter. Hopefully she will see this review.
