This book presents itself in the introduction not as a cookbook for a vegetarian diet, but a guide for people who are trying to eat more meatless dishes. That seems about right.

There are some good recipes to be found - mainly in the Soups/Stews and Quick Dinners sections. There are lots of pastas and frittatas (plenty of eggs and milk make this book very ovo-lactovegetarian) and a whole section for Main Dish Salads.

My husband and I bought this cookbook after we decided we wanted to cut down on our meat intake. It is now my favorite cookbook! Each every recipe comes out EXACTLY as it promises and even looks as delicious as the pictures. Almost every recipe has exceeded our expectations. I would recommend this book to anyone and everyone!

This is the best vegetarian recipe book I have - I buy them and share them with all my vegetarian friends. The recipes are easy and delicious and have recipes for Asian, Italian, Indian and traditional American. There is also a calorie count for each so it helps you adapt to special diets.

I am vegetarian, but I often like to cook more traditional recipes (minus the meat) and time usually of the essence. This is a great, easy-to-follow guide to making some quick meals and most dishes use ingredients that are already around the house (rather than requiring a special trip to a specialty store). You don't have to be a vegetarian or an expert chef to enjoy/prepare these high-protein meals!

I bought this book after a long search for a book that would have recipes both for me (the vegetarian) and my partner (the non-vegetarian). And it was a great success!

This book have a great selection of dishes, from salads, to pasta, including a great selection of chillis and soups. They were able to select recipes where the meat wouldn't be missed at all, like the chillis. So far, all the dishes we tried were really tasty, easy and healthy, and that the both of us could enjoy together, with no need of a second dish with meat.

If you are vegan though, a lot of recipes use cheese or eggs, so I don't know if it would be worth it. But if you are vegetarian, or just somebody that is trying to eat healthier, it's a great buy.

This was given to me as a gift a couple years into my vegetarianism, and many years later it is still my go-to cookbook and the only one I use regularly. It is well-tabbed with small post-its of all my favorites, and many recipes I've used so often they're stored in my head. The recipes are simple, use common, familiar ingredients, and are very good. If you're a vegetarian, wondering what to make when your veggie friends come over to visit, or just looking for some tasty new meal ideas, do give this one a try.

no complaints.. everything perfect.. good product came as described and promised.. good speedy delivery.. life is good.. what's more to say?

I like to cook variety of foods, but there were no expansive vegetable dishes in my library. I tried more than half a dozen recipes and I enjoyed many of them. For example, i have never had Apple/carrot soup which was really delicious and filling. (I usually modify most of the menus to my taste with adding spices, ingredients which are on hand.) Especially with cooler weather coming around, I would like to try more of the soup recipes. I do not like entree sections as I have more suitable dinner menus in other books. It was worth investment to expand my cooking.

My wife & I are not vegetarian (and never will be), but we want to eat better so we have been looking for a good vegetarian cookbook to get some fresh ideas for using the produce we harvest from our garden. We originally bought a highly rated vegan cookbook online and hated it. So, we returned it and spent an hour at Barnes & Noble looking through vegetarian cookbooks. This one has a lot of easy recipes that can be prepared with ingredients most people are familiar with. If you're a die-hard vegan this cookbook is not for you. If you're just looking to eat more vegetables I would definitely recommend it.

I ordered Good Housekeeping Vegetarian Meals Cookbook from Dottiescollectables on 2/04/10 and received it on 2/09/10. The great description was accurate and the book was in excellent condition. I would definetely buy from this seller again. Great book filled with simple, easy and interesting recipes with lots of good pictures. Good way to eat healthy and cut down on meat meals.
Thanks
