5.0 out of 5 stars Vegan made easy!, December 14, 2002
Being vegan can be a chore sometimes - it's the best diet in the world, yet it takes such an effort to avoid the proliferance of animal products in this country! But Marie Oser makes being vegan easy - and fun - and DELICIOUS! I have worn out her two other books from use, and I enjoying this new one so much. Every recipe is so tasty, her books have expanded my menu incredibly! The Enlightened Kitchen is informative, too - jam-packed with details to help you make good eating choices. You'll love it!

5.0 out of 5 stars The Enlightened Kitchen, November 11, 2002
By Elena (Orange County, California) - See all my reviews
I heard that the author of the fabulous "Soy of Cooking", Marie Oser had a new book the "Enlightened Kitchen". I couldn't wait to get it. I wasn't disappointed. It is a wonderful collection of flavorful vegan recipes that I can make myself. I never have had an issue with trying to find the ingredients because so many are now available in supermarkets. If I'm unfamiliar with a product, Marie's Englightened Pantry serves as a wonderful reference guide. One of my favorite things about the Enlightened Kitchen is the way the recipes are layed out. They are easy to follow and come together quickly. And the best part in my family loves them! My 5 year old likes helping in the kitchen and it is nice to know I have a collection of Marie's cookbooks that can assist me in showing my daughter how to cook healthy. Since the holiday's are right around the corner, I'm going to be giving the "Enlightened Kitchen" as gifts this holiday along with fresh baked Cranberry Walnut muffins, Chocolate Chip Banana Bread and the Pumpkin Raisin Breads to friends and family.

5.0 out of 5 stars Better than Great, October 31, 2002
By Jerry F. (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
I have found Marie Oser's recipies to be much better than gourmet restaurants. This book is better than great. The food is delicious and the recipies are simple enough for my brown-thumb of cooking.
