This book is awesome!, Feb 7 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: CalciYum!: Delicious calcium-rich dairy-free vegetarian recipes (Paperback)
I first noticed this book when one of the authors was on a cooking show. As a vegan, I was pleased to see that it offered recipes containing high levels of calcium WITHOUT dairy products. I find that many recipes in vegetarian cookbooks call for "weird" ingredients, but CalciYum offers recipes that even meat-eaters love! And the ingredients are easy to find! I made the Quiche and Peanut Butter Marbled Cheesecake recipes - and both were delicious! This book is really helpful because it also gives interesting facts about calcium, not to mention tables showing the calcium content for various vegetables, beans and soymilks. If you're a vegetarian or are lactose-intolerant, you will love this book and are sure to use it often!

CalciYum! A Must for Every Kitchen, Aug 11 1999
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: CalciYum!: Delicious calcium-rich dairy-free vegetarian recipes (Paperback)
CalciYum! has been a blessing in my kitchen. Not only are the recipes delicious and the instructions easy to follow, but I also know that my daily calcium needs are being met. The book has a wonderful resource table that lists the amount of calcium in each of the ingredients. This way, I can even boost the calcium in some of my own recipes. With a nutritional analysis for every recipe, an ingredient cooking guide, and tasty recipes, I recommend this book wholeheartedly to anyone.

Delicious recipes every time!, May 30 2002
By Stacey - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: CalciYum!: Delicious calcium-rich dairy-free vegetarian recipes (Paperback)
I originally purchased this cookbook for a science fair report my daughter was doing which focused on the detrimental effects of dairy on the human body. We began making some of the recipes and were hooked! Our family rates new meals and each recipe we have tried (over a dozen thus far) has received high marks from all family members. I appreciate the fact that the tastes of the various meals varies considerably, but the recipes use many of the same produce items, which allows me to stretch my grocery budget. While the meals are tasty, they are time-consuming to prepare, but definitely well worth the effort. The recipes are easy to follow, with each page offering interesting calcium tidbits and meal enhancing ideas. I was disappointed that the dessert section recipes fairly consistently call for granulated sugar. The desserts look wonderful, but I'll have to experiment to substitute for the granulated sugar. The calcium table in the back of the book is a tremendous resource for finding high calcium foods; I've learned much! I'm planning to spend some time on line tonight, looking for more cookbooks by these authors!
