I'm a fan of 30 Minute Vegan's other ethnic cookbook, The 30-Minute Vegan's Taste of the East: 150 Asian-Inspired Recipes--from Soba Noodles to Summer Rolls so when I found out they were releasing an European cookbook, I pre-ordered it as soon as it was available.

While I love the Asian cookbook, Asian is relatively easy to do vegan without making many substitutions, European, or more specifically French, is not as easy, so that made the concept of the book extra exciting to me. Exciting enough that I started trying out recipes as soon as the preview pages were available.

The book is divided into seven sections, French, German, Greek, Italian, English/Irish, Spanish/Portuguese, and European fusion. Though I haven't tried any of the desserts yet, there are dessert recipes in each section as well as many meal options. There are also some raw recipes, and recipes in each section that are noted as quicker and easier, though I don't think any of the recipes are very difficult or time consuming.

The tempeh-based moussaka recipe inparticular is easy to prepare and very tasty.

For those concerned about pictures, there is one pretty large insert of photos in the center of the book.

The one thing I don't like about some of the recipes is the use of processed cheese substitutes, though since I've started making my own non-dairy cheeses, that's become less of an issue for me.

As my job is providing unique and beautiful (in addition to delicious) food to all my retreat guests, cooking and baking for vegans has always been a challenge because I got stuck in ruts of providing much the same foods over and over -- up until I found this book! This incredible set of dishes from all over the world have opened so many culinary doors in my commercial kitchen to enable me to provide a vast variety of extraordinary meals, prompting huge thanks and high levels of appreciation from my guests for the efforts made on their behalf. This book is a treasure!

I have successfully prepared and enjoyed the eggplant parmesan stacks, linguine with clam free sauce, white bean dip, Baked vegan schnitzel and more.
And, there are so many more recipes, I look forward to preparing. Each recipe, I've tried has become a new favorite. I've impressed and satisfied myself and friends. Wundabar! Super!

I was so very excited when I first heard about this cook book, I think Traditional - and not so traditional - European food is a type of cuisine that is somewhat lacking in the vegan world. I come from a Greek and German background, and grew up eating a lot of traditional Greek and German fare, some of it is hard to veganize because it's typically food very heavily laden with animal products. Some recipes like Spanokopita and German Red Cabbage are totally over done in the vegan world - these are not hard recipes to veganize, I want something more creative, that provides more of a challenge and I think Mark Reinfeld delivered that with this book.

Certainly the book contains a handful of recipes that I've seen veganized time and time again, but there is enough new stuff, and enough really creative stuff in this book that I can forgive the tired recipes. I remember first flipping through this book and just being mind-blown by some of the culinary genius. I wish I had more time to vook from this book, because so many of the recipes look fantastic.

One of my favorite things about this book is the variety. I like the he includes dishes not only from Italy and France, but Spain, Portugal, Germany, The United Kingdom, Ireland, Greece, The Netherlands, Iceland, Poland, Hungry, Czech Republic, Sweden, Finland and more. I also like the fusion chapter at the end that combines traditions from a lot of different regions. Great selection. As always I find the recipes are clearly written and easy to follow, some do have long ingredients lists and some are really bordering on that 30 minute mark - taking closer to 40 minutes in some cases, - but overall this is a fairly practical book.

I loved the original 30 minute vegan cookbook, and when I saw the recipes in this book I knew I had to get it. So far the two recipes I've tried (artichoke heart and saffron paella and fettucini alfredo) have been delicious. The recipes are easy to follow, taste amazing, and are never disappointing!

What a great cookbook with TONS of variety! I made the manicotti the other night and it was absolutely delicious.

This cookbook inspired me to buy a crepe pan--we had them last night and they were AMAZING! When I make them for company, no one will ever believe that they have no eggs or dairy. They were just fabulous!

I can't wait to fill my kitchen library with the other books in this line!

I was so excited when I saw Mark Reinfeld came out with a 30 Minute Taste of Europe vegan cookbook. My husband is French - vegetarian/mostly vegan.

I should probably wait till I try more recipes to rate...but I'm too excited.

Tonight I made Buckwheat Galettes with Tarragon Cream and Rainbow Steamed Vegetables with Bechamel Sauce. Winners both! We devoured these tasty morsels in minutes. (Less than 30. ha,ha)

Also on the love list: Grilled Portobello Mushrooms with Bearnaise Sauce, Provencal Vegetable Salad, Chocolate Mousse, and Linguine with Clam-Free Sauce from the Italian section. (Oh my god, this sauce is divine!) I cannot wait to try the French Onion Soup and Chocolate Hazelnut Crepes.

Tomorrow we're venturing into new territory (Germany) with the Beer-Braised Greens and Baked Vegan Schnitzel. (I'm going with the crushed pretzel crust option.)

Bon appetit, indeed!
