The new OF THESE YE MAY FREELY EAT is all re-done, gorgeous, and scrumptious (not to mention still inexpensive). Not only is it a great cookbook but there so many tips and ways to easily do things (my style!) from using part of the water in the blender and then rinsing it later with the rest of the water to an extensive drying section that would be invaluable for backpackers and outdoor people. Can't wait to try some of those methods.

As soon as I got my new version of this cookbook I of course had to try the Macaroni and Cheese (Vegan) on p. 40. My kids loved it and it was so fast and easy! "Chicken" Noodle Soup (p. 56) has become one of our favorites; also the Tofu Meatballs (p. 33)-they are wonderful with spaghetti or just served with sauce. The Oat Crackers (p. 7) are a simple and a yummy treat with soup (roll 'em real thin). Lots of creative breakfast ideas. Haven't tried many desserts yet but liked the Carob Peanut Butter Cups (p. 64). There are jam options, breads, salads. Can't wait to try more!

I've enjoyed this new cookbook so much I think I'll use it instead of birthday cards this year. (Hey, it's cheaper and so much more useful.)

This book is so simple to read, and the recipes are easy to make without a lot of unknown ingredients. The recipes in this book are completely free of animal products. In the back of the book is essential health information about sugars, cheese, protein and other topics. All of which are easy to understand. The price is so affordable for the information and the use you will get out of this book. It's definetly a book you shouldn't be without if your main concern is time and health.

This is a super book! I am thrilled with the many variations and simple recipes. For anyone that is wanting to add more healthy recipes to their lifestyle, this is a super deal. Where else can you get over 200 extremely healthy recipes for such a low price. I appreciate that the creators or this book wanted to help people with their health instead of lining their pockets with cash. We love the "plant-based" recipes. I now have an older version, and purchased the latest version as well. I plan to get any updated version that may come out in the future. That is how impressed I am. Recipes that are a must to try are the Peanut Butter Flax Cookies (Flax seed bars modified recipe in the older cookbook,)and the "ice cream" recipes! I love the tips and helps, especially food drying and health education information.

If you've ever been interested in vegetarian cooking, this is the place to start. It's cheaper than most of the other books on the subject and yet more well rounded than most I've seen.

I'm personally not even 100% vegetarian, but I do sometimes go for days without meats and this gave me a good foundation to build from. And whether you end up using these recipes as full course meals or just as inspiration for amazing vegetable side dishes it's worth the time to read through it.

These recipes remind me of a simpler age. When everything was made fresh. Health minded people will love these down to earth recipes. Everything easy for digestion. Bring back the good ole farming days. Bring back Great-Grandma's cooking. Enjoy healthful, natural, simple tasteful meals again. I use this book often and am thankful for it's contents! Highly recommended.

Book has lots of recipes and I think I paid a dollar or two for it. How can you go wrong

I haven't tried a lot of the recipes in this book yet, but I can say that the Macaroni and Cheese recipe is AWESOME! The best vegan mac and cheese I have ever tried and I've tried A LOT of them! This book has a wealth of information for those who are going or have gone vegan also!

Slim little book crammed full of recipes-- soup, crackers, breads, desserts, entrees, pizzas, dressings, and lots more. A great source for all sorts of techniques that will help -- info on baking, drying foods, where to find ingredients, etc. A very nice resource for a vegetarian cookbook shelf.

This is a great little book for a really great price. Highly recommended. It is VEGAN not just vegetarian like the title says

Granted, this is not the best cookbook I own, but I use many of the recipes...and even more, I have bought many copies and have given them to clueless friends and family members (and co-workers, too!).
It is certainly worth the $3 investment, and the nutritional information inside is also worth the price.
