Good one-dish meals,
By A Customer
This review is from: 150 Vegan Favorites: Fresh, Easy, and Incredibly Delicious Recipes You Can Enjoy Every Day (Paperback)
I like this book because it has a lot of recipes that combine vegetables with legumes with rice or other starches, basically providing a complete, balanced meal with the preparation of just one dish.This author does sometimes tend to the spicy - i.e. Jay's Mondo Chili includes chili powder, cumin, paprika, AND Tabasco! And he does use a lot of different types of chilis in his recipes (New Mexico, poblano, jalapeno, serrano), some of which I don't know where to find. Overall, however, I do find this book has survived the test of time in that several years after I bought it, I still turn to it to try something new, or to re-make a previously enjoyed dish.

GREAT cook book!,

This review is from: 150 Vegan Favorites: Fresh, Easy, and Incredibly Delicious Recipes You Can Enjoy Every Day (Paperback)
I've had this cookbook for four years and I love it. The recipes are all very good and aren't missing anything by not having meat or dairy. They're very creative, restaurant-worthy recipes that non-vegans such as myself will love as well. I like that the author didn't try to copy recipes with meat and dairy like "macaroni and cheeze", which never taste like what they're trying to imitate although they might be good if you don't think of it as mac and cheese. I especially enjoy the soup and chili recipes!

simple,

This review is from: 150 Vegan Favorites: Fresh, Easy, and Incredibly Delicious Recipes You Can Enjoy Every Day (Paperback)
These recipes are fairly simple, but may not be detailed enough if you're brand new to the kitchen. The ingredients are common and easy to find. This simplifies your shopping, but does lead to some repetition among the recipes. The dishes I have tried have been tasty and satisfying. Unfortunately, there is no nutrition information given.A cookbook I use a lot more is "The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen" by Donna Klein.
