Editorial Reviews

Review

Enjoy an unusual vegetarian cookbook which is reviewed here for its emphasis on nonfat, healthy dishes using no diary. One might anticipate a relatively dull selection; but the tastes and flavors here are outstanding, making use of spices and herbs to compensate for anything which might be missed by eliminating fat and dairy products. -- Midwest Book Review


Product Description

A Celebration of Wellness is the perfect lifestyle book with more than 300 delicious low- and non-fat, heart-healthy recipes. Readers will learn how to make breakfast burritos, creative salads, live energy soups, hearty stews, fruit-sweetened desserts, and much more. This cookbook also presents Tastes of Life, bite-sized morsels of information about the environmental impact of your food choices, aromatherapy, cleansing fasts, deep breathing, and salt glow massages. --This text refers to an alternate Paperback edition.

4.0 out of 5 stars spritely, September 12, 1999
By A Customer
I just picked up this book and am really intrigued by it. As a recent convert to veganism I've been looking for a cookbook that will keep me "interested" and this one seems to be doing it. The recipes do require time and preparation. Still, once you have the basics in your pantry, it's possible to whip up a quick and healthy meal in no time. Great recipes all around from entrees to sides dishes, breakfasts (yummy blue corn pancakes!) even recipes for body-cleansing teas. Also includes suggestions on how to live healthfuly. I like the bits of information in the margins and the sometimes comical "country" illustrations.

5.0 out of 5 stars The title says it all, May 5, 2002
By A Customer
This is a lovely, inspiring cookbook. The recipes are unique and healthful, and the sidebar quotes and tips give the book a warm, nurturing tone.

The two things that struck me about this book were:
(1) the the entrees reference the "sauces" pages, so that I actually use this section, unlike with other cookbooks, where I have no idea what to do with the sauce recipes.
(2) many vegan cookbooks have the requisite chapter on breakfast, but never before has one offered so many attractive options that have actually helped lure me from my regular cereal-and-soy-milk routine.

I have tried many of the dishes, so far my favorite is the Wild 'n Cheezy casserole, which uses nutritional yeast, and contains kale (both are rather new dietary items for me - nutritional powerhouses - and thanks to this book, ones that I now enjoy immensely).

If you are looking for "something different" for dinner, are familiar with basic cooking techniques, and have a decent level of competence in the produce section of the grocery store, I would highly recommend this book for your collection.

4.0 out of 5 stars A keeper! But needs more careful editing..., February 22, 2003
By Kenneth Simon (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
There are plenty of recipes in this cookbook that are keepers! The recipes are presented in an easy-to-read typfeace -- an important feature of any cookbook. The health-conscious, vegan recipes are not too complex, and a few of them have inspired us to make them repeatedly over the months.

I would caution that the book is a victim of some sloppy editing. There are some odd misspellings (celery "stocks" instead of "stalks") and occasionally the recipe instructions are ambiguous. At least one recipe from this book came out awful because the preparation instructions were unclear.

I still do recommend this cookbook. The bulk of its contents will make for some delicious, healthy meals.
