5.0 out of 5 stars Great cook book for a just starting out vegetarian, April 12, 2003

By	Lucia (Upstate, NY) - See all my reviews

I have just recently become a vegetarian and this cookbook was bought for me as a gift. The recipes are very clear with plenty of pictures and handy tips. I now know how to sundry my own tomatoes and who knew you could substitute natural peanut butter for sesame tahini when making hummus. The Fried Noodles with bean sprouts and asparagus is one of my favorites. For a new vegetarian, like myself, I needed a cookbook that was not intimedating or that didn't include exotic ingredients. This is a perfect collection of delicious recipes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Absolute Best Cookbook (Even if You're Not a Vegetarian), June 16, 2004

By	bluecanary (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews

This book gets more use than any other cookbook in our extensive collection, and we aren't even vegetarians, we just wanted to eat healthier. As a matter of fact, I'm making the Leek Souffle tonight, and I used the hummus recipe for a party.

The photographs make the food look so good that you're eager to try out the recipes, which are all fairly easy to make. The ingredients are fairly simple and easy to find at the grocery store.

So many of these recipes have become regulars on our menus. The baked eggs with leeks are a great lunch or breakfast, and I've made it so often, I don't even need to look at the book anymore. The vegetable pilau is a favorite, too. We've even used tabs on this book so we can hit our favorites easily (we have about 12 tabs in the book so far).

If you buy no other cookbook, buy this one. I can't believe how impressed we are with this book!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars This cookbook lives up to it's title!, March 19, 2003

By	Mary Louise (Ann Arbor, MI USA) - See all my reviews

This book was given to me as a gift. I have tried many recipes from it, and all were delicious, not too difficult, and made with available ingredients. The instructions are presented in numbered steps, making it very easy to follow. What I liked best is the fact that every recipe includes color photos of the preparation process and the completed dish!
