This book is FULL of recipes for all courses--from the appetizer to dessert (even including ice cream!!) I thought I'd cleared the shelves at [local store] of all their vegan cookbooks, so I was so happy to have found this book, I almost yelled aloud right in the store! No vegan cookbook has been so complete and at the same time had easy recipes that anyone can put together (you might even have alot of the ingredients in your kitchen already!) I like to cook when I have time (and there are special recipes in here for when you do have the time), but when I come home late from work, my stomach often can't wait an hour or more for me to prepare something. These recipes are great, and alot of them are not time-consuming. There are some grains that the average person might not be used to in a few of the recipes, but most are filled with ingredients familiar to most palates. I really was surprised and happy about the wide variety of recipes here. I can't imagine any vegan or vegetarian (or even anyone else), who wouldn't be extremely satisfied with this book.

I have tried the Penut Butter Oaties and was really surprised how easy and delicious they were. Actually, the simplicity of the majority of the recipes in the book was surprising. My biggest disappointment with this book is just that other than great recipes, there's not much to it. ie, no nutrition information, no background or supplemental information about the dishes, like what is a good accompaniment, not even serving information (Am I cooking for one or twenty here?). There are also only a few pictures. Overall, good recipes, but I just prefer a book that is dare I say, more, "meaty".

THIS IS ONE OF THE BEST VEGAN COOK BOOKS I HAVE FOUND. IT IS SIMPLE AND DIRECT, WITHOUT A LOT OF HARD TO FIND INGREDIENTS. I HAVE SHOPPED FOR A VEGAN COOKBOOK THAT WOULD ACCOMODATE MY VERY BUSY LIFE AND HAVE FOUND IT IN THIS BOOK.
