Over 200 vegetarian recipes you’ll want to make again and again–from James Beard Award–winning author Jeanne Lemlin

Jeanne Lemlin is familiar to a generation of home cooks as a pioneering vegetarian cookbook author whose books―including the James Beard Award-winning Quick Vegetarian Pleasures―present accessible, reliable, and flavorful vegetarian recipes. Now, Lemlin returns to the cookbook shelf for the first time in more than ten years with this dramatic reinvention of her first book―originally published twenty-five years ago as Vegetarian Pleasures: A Menu Cookbook.

Simply Satisfying’s more than 200 seasonal recipes showcase readily available ingredients― particularly fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, and beans―as well as straightforward techniques, global influences, and, most delectably and rewardingly, robust flavors. Here are Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Jalapeños, Fragrant Vegetable Stew with Corn Dumplings, Leek Timbales with White Wine Sauce, Baked Eggplant Stuffed with Curried Vegetables . . . and for dessert, Raspberry Almond Torte, Rhubarb Cobbler, and Cowboy Cookies. Each inviting dish is simple enough to be part of a weeknight meal and certain to satisfy vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.

Lemlin guides cooks through both everyday and special-occasion cooking by offering 50 menu suggestions, helping new vegetarians avoid the “plateful of sides” dilemma, and giving seasoned cooks new ideas for entertaining. And she includes personal tips and a chapter on making “the basics” from scratch.

Whether you are a committed vegetarian or an omnivore who enjoys hearty meatless meals,
Simply Satisfying may well become your most reliable, trusted source of recipes to make again and again.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"[N]ovice cooks can whip up healthful, flavorful meals in record time. Lemlin’s latest, which emphasizes simple preparations and nutritious (e.g., low-fat, whole grain) ingredients, is as useful now as it was 25 years ago."
Library Journal

"Jeanne Lemlin has always been one of my favorite vegetarian authors. There is so much variety and flavor in Jeanne’s simple seasonal preparations that I could cook a different vegetarian meal every night of the week."
Sara Moulton, host of the PBS show Sara’s Weeknight Meals and author of Sara Moulton’s Everyday Family Dinners

"In a crowded field of vegetarian cookbooks, Lemlin’s stands out for straightforward good food."
Newsweek

"Lemlin’s food is quick and comforting, the kind you’re always in the mood to eat."
Washington Post

"This is a compendium of hearty vegetarian fare with a relaxed approach to cooking and a particularly noteworthy extended section on desserts."
CSMonitor.com

"The easy recipes are alive with flavor and zest. Whether one is a vegetarian is incidental. This book inspires a new and fresh direction for home cooking."
Marion Cunningham, author of The Fanny Farmer Cookbook

"It takes enormous culinary flair and expertise, good sense, and also courage to marry the tastes of different cultures in a way that really works. Jeanne Lemlin has achieved this brilliantly."
Claudia Roden, author of The Food of Spain

"All the elements are intelligently related to one another to give an overall sense of focus and balance to the meal . . . and convey a sense of cooking which is flexible and relaxed."
Deborah Madison, author of Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone and Local Flavors: Cooking and Eating from America’s Farmers’ Markets

"The recipes are light, flavorful, varied, and drawn from many international cuisines. I was especially happy to see desserts that no dessert lover could resist. Jeanne Lemlin really knows what tastes good."
Richard Sax, author of From the Farmer’s Market

I either have all or most of Jeanne's books. Because of the simple menus she provides in this book, it is easy to blend flavors for tasty and attractive meals. I have worked my way through all the "Simple Menus" and am now on the "Informal Menus," but with June starting will start the "Summer Menus" shortly.

Jeanne's books are always reliable and her recipes often include personable hints for a successful outcome.
Some of the recipes do require butter, which I will start substituting, for health reasons, once I try the original recipe. Some desserts in the menus have too much sugar for my husband, and probably for me too, so, for some desserts, I use the same flavors and substitute those from No Salt, No Sugar, No Fat; Get the Sugar Out; Sweet and Natural; or if the dessert includes fruit, I use fresh fruit if it is available.

I have tried the tempeh recipes and cannot seem to cut it small enough to get my husband to say he likes it and once he knew it was a soy product, he proclaimed that soy is not good for him. So, although I like the dishes, I may have to stop using the tempeh recipes or I may substitute MEAT (Can that be healthier than tempeh?- I don't think so, but happiness is healthy!)

For me, following recipes is generally easy, but I find blending dishes a challenge so again, I really appreciate the menus in this book which build my confidence and give me certainty that the whole meal goes together well.

Thanks

The recipes are quick (under 30 minutes) and easy to make, and very tasty and satisfying.
The book itself (the Kindle edition) is laid out very nicely with the ingredients and cooking instructions on one page.
I also like that Ms Lemlin includes nutritional information for each recipe; calories per serving, carbohydrates, fats, etc.
Though I have a paperback version of "Simply Satisfying" by Ms Lemlin, I prefer using the Kindle edition because I can take the Kindle to the market with me and use the recipe(s) as a shopping list. (The paperback version doesn't travel well). And when I get home I simply stand the Kindle up and start cooking.

There were some recipes with cheese and eggs, which I consider cheating. There were some wonderful chick pea recipes. Worth the price for new ideas.
Reviewed in the United States on January 17, 2014
This cookbook is a bit of a conundrum to me. It is advertised as a compendium of quick and easy, but healthy and flavorful, vegetarian recipes. "Novice cooks can whip up healthful, flavorful meals in record time," reads one of the top editorial reviews.

For the most part, Lemlin delivers on these promises. The recipes are basic, and most of the ones we've tried (with a couple of notable exceptions) have been pretty tasty. But healthful? We clearly have a different understanding of what that word means. Without fail, Lemlin's recipes rely on an absolutely inordinate amount of fat. Four out of five recipes will have you stir in 2 or 3 tablespoons of butter at the end, just for the hell of it! Who does that?! She will sauté an onion in ¼ cup of olive oil, when a tablespoon would do. It's mind-boggling, and it generates reactions of astonishment every time this book is used in our kitchen.

That said: the recipes are generally pretty good, even once we've omitted the fat. To give an idea, on a typical Lemlin recipe we will use half or less of the olive oil she calls for, and cut the butter completely, and the outcome will still be a delicious (and much more healthy) vegetarian dish. There have been a few bland-o-rama recipes we've stumbled upon, and in general we've been underwhelmed by her recipes for standard condiments (i.e. her pesto and her veggie broth), but in those cases when we've been let down, the lack has been in herbs and spices, not a need for more butter (seriously!). Overall, most of her recipes are decent, especially for busy worknights or new vegetarians who are still feeling their way around what you can do without meat.

So for flavor and ease, I'd give it 4 stars. For my need to alter, without fail, every single recipe because of her obsession with fat... it gets knocked back to a 3.

I cannot rave more about a vegetarian cookbook. I bought the first edition in 1987 and I have worn it out!! I was thrilled to see that Amazon carried the re-issue in paperback and bought three copies: one for myself and two to give as gifts. I am not a vegetarian, but I do enjoy an occasional vegetarian meal, especially in the summer when there is so much fresh produce available, but Jeanne's book makes winter vegetarian eating special too!! And the menus are superb!! It is so much fun to make an entire vegetarian meal as a surprise for my veggie friends. Thank you for bringing this wonderful book back!

I've been a fan & collector of Jeanne Lemlin's cookbooks for many years. I have purchased them all and was excited to see this new one. My excitement quickly turned to disappointment after receiving the book and trying to browse through it. I continue to hold Ms. Lemlin and her wonderful vegetarian recipes in high regard but her publisher should be ashamed (The Experiment LLC). They committed one of the worst crimes in book publishing as far as I'm concerned: using teeny tiny font size and pale almost impossible to read font color. Come on folks! If you want your authors to succeed, make the text easy on the eyes - sharp, distinct and clear. I'll admit that my eyes are not the youngest around but they're healthy; I won't waste any time trying to decipher these recipes and for the first time ever, since ordering books from Amazon for decades, I'm going to return the book.
