I've been vegetarian for 5 years now and have accumulated a collection of different vegetarian cookbooks over the years. Most of them make several fundamental assumptions: 1)you have plenty of money to spend on difficult-to-find spices and rare items 2) you have the time to buy and prepare these items (chopping things from hand and other meticulous work). Fact is, it ain't so for most college students. We're busy and we're on a budget. Healthy food choices are limited-- especially if we're vegetarian.
I've never had to cook for myself until moving into my apartment, and let me tell you, this cookbook is my Culinary Bible! It's great because it offers fast, cheap, healthy, meat-free, and yummy small-serving recipes (I recommend ... Read More: >>More Details |

This looked great at first... but then I started looking at the calorie counts for most of the dishes. Most of the Main Dishes have less than 200 calories, some have less than 100. I don't have time to cook and eat 8-10 meals per day.

I subscribe to Vegetarian Times and really like the recipes. However, just like any kind of cooking, VT's dishes CAN be complex and time-consuming. The fact that they're vegetarian recipes doesn't automatically mean they're easy to prepare.
Here comes this book to show just how simple vegetarian cooking can be. Many of the recipes are so short and quick to prepare that you'll be stunned. They're also remarkably "simple" in the sense that they're not loaded with a gazillion different ingredients. The whole wheat waffles, for example, have a grand total of six ingredients, which is just fine by me, especially since I get a little antsy whenever I have to go through every cabinet in my house to find all the stuff I need to make most things ...

This book is targeted toward northeastern Indian cooking (Bengal and Orissa).
I hate the term "Indian cooking", because there is no such thing, just as there is no such thing as "American cooking": there is southern cooking, Tex-Mex, Hawaiian, Appalachian, New England, and so on. In the same way, there is a wide variety of Indian cooking: southern India, Bengal, Gujarat, Punjab, Kashmir, and so on. A country with 400 languages certainly has a wide variety of cooking styles! Anyway, I find this book to be absolutely indispensable as a reference, because I've done my own share of Bengali cooking through the years. However, I have found errors, that only my experience would have recognized. For example, in one dahl recipe, she ... Read More: >>More Details |

The Vegetarian Meat and Potatoes Cookbook is really versatile and has many tasty recipes. The cookbook covers appetizers, salads, soups, stews, sandwiches, entrees and desserts. Even though it has the word vegetarian in the title, vegans will find that the recipes include tips on using substitutions to make them vegan, such as using ground flax seeds instead of eggs. Another good aspect of the cookbook is that a lot of the recipes aren't extremely complicated and they don't require lots of exotic ingredients. Finally, the cookbook really covers a range of flavors and cuisines. Some of my favorites from the book right now are the Bronzed Tempeh with Broccoli and Spicy Peanut Sauce, the Soy Stroganoff, and the African Sweet Potato Stew. I'll definitely be trying more ...

I bought this book 2 weeks ago and I've already lost 7 pounds and I haven't been hungry once. The recipes are great, the layout is easy to follow, and it's completely changed the way I eat. I've been looking for a good vegetarian diet book for a while and finally found it!

I'm enjoying this book. It seems to require some non-staple items but so far my husband and I have liked the meals. They are healthy also, which was the main reason for the purchase. I would reccomend this book.

I think the book is good as a stepping stone resource. Personally I prefer her book Vegetarian Cooking for Dummies. It has a bunch of really delicious recipes. I've always hated beans but the recipes she's included with beans are delicious. The recipes she's included are pretty much fool proof and I've liked almost all of the ones in the book. This being vegetarian for dummies repeats a lot information in the other book and expands on a couple of other topics. I found the other book more helpful in a practical sense. Check it out.

I like the huge variety of recipes, it sparks lots of ideas. However I have found the recipes strangely off at times. For example, page 283 has a Rice Noodle stirfry, where they have you make a sauce, then they never tell you what to do with it. Now this is a pretty basic recipe, but still I found myself almost done cooking with an orphaned bowl of sauce, which I just dumped in. Another recipe for coconut soup has 6 cups of water to one can of coconut milk - its almost not even worth adding the can of coconut milk at this point...

The main thing I love about this amazing book is the focus it places on fresh ingredients. Part of the joy of cooking is seeing it evolve from the ingredient to the meal and working with your ingredients rather than pouring them out of a can. This method of cooking is immensely more satisfying even if you just throw everything in the crock pot to come home to a great smelling house later.
The book has each recipe marked as lacto-ovo, vegan or something similar to help you find a recipe that's right for the foods you can tolerate. This would be great for a family with just one gluten and casein free member so you can adjust the ingredients to your needs. That's the way we end up working things out! Hope you enjoy this as much as I did. >>More Details |
