Product Description
From Publishers Weekly
Perfect for students, but just as valuable for health-, time- and budget-conscious grown-ups, Raymond's updated cookbook offers 142 quick and easy recipes for all kinds of vegetarian delights, including breakfasts, salads, sandwiches, pastas and stirfries. With the knowledge of a nutritionist and the warmth of a mom, Raymond urges her readers to embrace meatless cooking for its ease, its economy and its benefits for both people and the environment. For those new to vegetarianism, she covers techniques for smart shopping and kitchen tricks; for the truly harried, her 10 "No-Time-to-Cook" recipes prove that a decent and healthy meal can be whipped up sooner than you can say "Pizza to go." The recipes draw on various cuisines-there's Greek-Style Scrambled Tofu, Black Bean and Yam Quesadillas, Pad Thai and Pasta Primavera-and are uniformly simple and delicious. Raymond also offers vegan recipes, drinks and desserts. With readily available ingredients, prep times that never exceed 20 minutes (and that are often in the single digits) and directions that rarely call for any appliance more complicated than a blender, this volume should be required reading for any student vegetarian.

Extremely Disappointing,
By ALG "family of readers" (Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Student's Vegetarian Cookbook, Revised: Quick, Easy, Cheap, and Tasty Vegetarian Recipes (Paperback)
After reading all of the wonderful reviews here, I ordered this cookbook and waiting anxiously for it to arrive. I own most of the quick/easy vegetarian cookbooks available, and I thought this would also become one of my favorites. However, that is not the case. On my first read-through, I could only find one recipe that I wanted to try, and it contains a difficult-to-find ingredient.The areas I am most disappointed in are: 1. There are way too many recipes for desserts, drinks, appetizers, etc. I was expecting quick vegetarian "meals" - not recipes that I could find in almost any cookbook. 2. Several of the recipes include beer, an ingredient that I cannot cook with. 3. The abundance of recipes using garbanzo beans, zucchini, and eggplant. I suppose it's a personal prejudice, but these ingredients seem so over-used in vegetarian cooking, and I'm just not that fond of any of them! 4. The lack of convenience soy foods. I guess I was expecting more use of these and less of tofu in a "quick, easy, student" cookbook.

Don't expect much in the way of visuals. It is not a pretty cookbook.I'm not vegetarian but I would recommend this book if you don't eat a lot of meat. There are a lot of simple, yummy recipes in here. If you purchase 1 college cookbook get this one.

Delicious, *quick* meals,
By nylisa (New York, NY) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Student's Vegetarian Cookbook, Revised: Quick, Easy, Cheap, and Tasty Vegetarian Recipes (Paperback)
Because I am rarely ever home before 8 p.m., I had been either ordering in or eating out for dinner generally every night. That all changed after I recieved this cookbook as a gift. I've tried other vegetarian cookbooks before, and this one has by far the most uncomplicated, quick, but still absolutely delicious, meals. And most of the recipes use some similar ingredients, so you're usually not stuck with rotting produce. My favorites are the white bean and tomato salad, Greek-style tofu scramble and black bean and yam quesadilla. This book is a must for a busy vegetarian professional.
