4.0 out of 5 stars full of great, easy recipes -- no fancy ingredients!, August 6, 2007

By	R. Grenier "no book rookie" (Vancouver, BC, Canada) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I like this recipe book because I can read through it and I know what every ingredient is, the weirdest thing in there is TVP which is something I have always wanted to try out anyway. Lots of easy recipes full of familiar flavors -- on one hand, it could be a good thing, on the other hand I noticed that there is a heavy reliance on cheese-based recipes. There's more to vegetarian cooking than cheese, but I guess for quick, easy, tasty recipes it is an easy way to add a lot of flavor. A few of these recipes such as the "Italian Cabbage One-dish Dinner" have become favorites around my house, for that alone this recipe book is worth it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Delicious Vegetarian cooking your entire family will enjoy!, January 3, 2007

By	Michelle Dunn "Columnist, author, credit expe... (NH) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It is very hard to be a vegetarian when your family is not. Do you cook seperate meals for everyone? With this book, Geraldine has created some great recipes that even the meat lovers in your family will love.
I tried the Mexican Burrito Dinner last night and my whole family enjoyed it and had seconds and thirds. I have 2 teenage boys so that is a big deal.I plan on trying more of the recpes which are in a very easy to read format. The preperation instructions are short and to the point, it are very easy. I think you will be pleasantly surprised with the recipes in this book, and if you are like me and trying to have a healthier diet, this is a book you should buy. I highly recommend it and my family asked me to make the Burrito Dinner recipe again! Kudos!

5.0 out of 5 stars Love This Book!, January 15, 2007

By	Ann L. Duntley (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I am not a vegetarian, but am always looking for alternate ways to include healthy choices in my diet. Not Just For Vegetarians is an excellent resource for someone such as myself! The foods are flavorful and the recipes are easy to follow. And if, like me, you are limited to the grocery store for meeting your shopping needs, you will find that all the ingredients are readily available! The scones are to die for and the Tahini Terrific No-Bake Energy bars are a favorite of mine on those days when I need on-the-go snacks. And the Savory Cheddar Cheese Muffins? Don't even get me started! Too yummy!!

I highly recommend this book to all cooks, non-vegetarians included. You'll find some old favorites beautifully recreated in a healthier way and some new recipes that are destined to become staples in your meal planning!
