As a single man without much time to devote to cooking, I found this book easy to work with, the recipes are tasty and the format makes it easy to scale down or up. I've even bought a copy for my Mum.

Hi,I am a nine year old girl and a vegetarian.My mom got this book because I hate so many different foods.This book was cool because it has the vegetarian food that movie stars eat.I liked that alot.Im picky about what I eat but this stuff was yummy.Mom even let me help her make some recipes,it was fun.thankyou.bye bye now.

I think the book was totally cool and nutritious! I loved it! Francia Ruppen is my wonderful Aunt, and I'm proud of her book that she wrote and my Aunt herself. Almost my whole family are vegetarians. So this book is a good help for us. Now we have a cookbook that is of use to us vegetarians as well as those who eat meat. I have been a vegetarian for all of my life. My name is Britain. I think my Aunt is a genius. Sincerely, Britain

What a great little book! The recipes are ones everyone wants to have anyway. It's succinctly written. There are great pictures, little helpful tips -- all this plus nutritional inofrmation!! I love this book!!!!

This is the second year I have put this book on my Christmas list. Everyone I have given it to raves about it, not only for its fabulous recipes and well laid out format, but also because it is informative and entertaining. Kudos to the author -- who also has a PhD in neuroscience!

I ! I loved this book!This was the first cookbook that I ever enjoyed just reading. First of all,you open it up and excitedly go through it,looking at all the stars and seeing what particular recipe that they have contributed. Then you think,hmmmm, why did they use that recipe?Then its fun analizing why that celibrity chose that paticular recipe. Oh and who knew that Mr.Rogers was a vegetarian?The recipes are fatastic!Not your regular vegetarian boring stuff. I believe that is because not just celebrity vegetarians contributed,but those with varied eating habits, participated. That makes for a very unique and versitile cookbook. Ms.Ruppen should be commended for using recipes from both vegetarians and non-vegetarian. Vegetarian dishes are not just for vegetarians anymore.This is obviously proven with the many recipes that were sent in by non-vegetarian celebraties.I must also say Thank You!Thank You! Ms. Ruppen for researching your recipes so thoroughly, by including additional low or no fat ways to make each recipe.Now I can eat vegetarian and TOTALLY healthy!This is such a great book,I could write on and on., Incudedwith pictures of your favorite celebrities their personal recipes,are some great little antidotes on each page.They were informative and interesting reading.This was the most unboring cookbook I ever read.1

Always have a great time using this book. Easy to use. Has reduced fat and salt versions. Great for me as I am a Diabetic. It is fun; funny; and informative. It is on my Christmas list AGAIN this year.

This book makes innovative cooking a breeze, both for everyday dishes and for those truly special occasions. Open it anywhere and find a gastronomic delight!

I was amazed, entertained and amused by the wealth of information and variety of recipes in this celebrity cookbook loaded with tips & techinques.

The best part is a tie between having both the original and reduced fat/sodium versions and the entertainment value of the celebrity contributions and comments. The only fault is no pictures of the prepared dishes, which is almost made up for by the fabulous pictures of the stars.

I thought the Hollywood Cookbook was very well done. It included great recipes that would please any guest. I highly recommend it!
