I have flipped through the entire contents of this recipe book to determine what of its 125 recipes, I will likely not want to make and on rough count, I'm interested in about 30 of its recipes, at a maximum.
I think this happens often with vegetarian cookbooks; Nope, I'm not keen on the idea of a tofu soup.
I like many of its recipes, for example garlic tomato soup, because exotic ingredients aren't required. (tomato juice or canned tomatoes)
Also, the cost of ingredients contained within almost all of its recipes are reasonable, most of which are easily available at the typical large grocery store.
I'll be trying several of the recipes in the near future. I'll check back with this review!!

A charming spiral-bound collection of delicious vegetarian recipes ranging from hot and chilled soups to a variety of salads, main dishes, and of course, desserts. Recipes seem straightforward and easy to follow. And of course, the built-in easel makes it convenient to use as you cook!
I love this cookbook. We eat a lot of meat (every dinner), so I wasn't sure whether they would rebel at a lack of meat, but with these recipes, no one misses it. These recipes do tend to be full of dairy products and butter, just as a warning. They are yummy tho.
I've been making mostly the cassarole-type dishes because it's the easiest way to feed the hoard of college students (there are 7 of us). I've also make the pita recipe (very fluffy, but need to keep the oven really hot or they won't puff) and the muffin recipe (biscuit-textured, but delicious. They disappear immediately.)
The instructions are clear enough for a mere college student to handle, and the equipment requirements aren't too bad. We don't have that much kitchen stuff and we can manage it. Some of them do take a while -- the spinach lasagna was the most intense recipe I've ever made, but it was delicious.
