VegNews, December 2010
“Favorite Vegan MD”
Library Journal, 5/21/10
“A terrific lifestyle guide for anyone wishing to lose weight, cut cholesterol, and reverse the symptoms of type 2 diabetes. After they detail the science behind a low-fat vegan diet, the authors include tons of simple, healthful breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipes for a variety of palates…Recipes are short and contain detailed information on calories, saturated fat, and vitamins and minerals…A good complement to Donna Klein’s Vegan Italiano and The Mediterranean Vegan Kitchen, this is recommended for vegetarians and those looking to expand their diabetic cookbook collection.”
Blogcritics.org , 6/17/10
“This man is seriously into nutrition. But what about taste? Barnard and Webb’s recipes are especially appealing to those who are not fans of TVP (texturized vegetable protein)…The first fifty pages of The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook serve as a primer on vegan cooking, the health-benefits of a vegan diet, and nutrition…For the appetizer lover, there are plenty of spreads and finger foods…Ethnic dishes, main dishes, soups, desserts—there’s plenty to tempt you…Bottom Line: Would I buy The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook? With vegetarians and vegans in my family, I need it on my kitchen bookshelf, but—let’s face it—there are plenty of offerings that everyone, regardless of diet, can enjoy.”

“There’s plenty of diversity among the recipes that include green chile and oyster mushroom crepes, sweet potato soup, and even snacks. All recipes are low in fat. If you’re new to the vegan lifestyle, this book will appear intriguing.”
Treehugger.com (discussing the Sun Dried Tomato Spread pg 162), 6/30/10
“This sun-dried tomato spread is so creamy, people might think it has mayonnaise in it, but the secret is silken tofu…This is a great spread to have on hand. It’s delicious as a base for a grilled vegetable sandwich, or you can spread it on a bagel instead of cream cheese and it’s quite satisfying.”
Tucson Citizen, 7/14/10
“[Barnard’s] 125 recipes stress convenience, versatility, and taste…Whether your goal is take the plunge and go vegan or you just want to eliminate some meats from your diet and substitute more healthy alternatives, this cookbook will be helpful.”
San Francisco Book Review, 7/12/10
“I can’t help but be thrilled by receiving a good vegan cookbook to review…It’s vegan in every sense of the word, but I love that the emphasis is on eating a well-balanced, whole foods diet, rather than creating poor substitutions of everyone’s meat-filled favorites…Another thing I love about this book is that the author, Neal Barnard, MD, is promoting a vegan diet for scientifically sound reasons—reasons that are thoroughly explained in the first few chapters…Let The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook serve as a reminder to you all that cooking vegan does not have to be a daunting idea! This book is full of good meal ideas that are healthy, delicious, and remarkably simple to make.”
Foodista.com, 7/12/10
“Make[s] it easier than ever for those willing to take the plunge to assemble healthy, delicious vegan meals…This is a great book for those who aren’t big on tofu or other texturized vegetable protein—Dr. Barnard and Webb focus on vegetables and yummy carbs such as rice or polenta to round out meals.

Metapsychology Online Reviews, 3/31/11

This review is from: The Get Healthy, Go Vegan Cookbook (Paperback)
This is one of the most wonderful cookbooks I have ever used. The recipes are easyto prepare from ingredients on hand in my house. They take very little time and are delicious. My friend ordered three of these books after she read my book. I was introduced to this cookbook by a Thoracic surgeon in my yoga class. He has become a vegan, and now I also have become one. Used to think it would be difficult, but now I know it is easy. I think I will order a few for my family and give them as Christmas gifts.

I like this book for the information it has. I've read almost all of Dr. Barnard's books and I bought this one for updated info. The recipes are really good, which is a bonus. I wasn't expecting that. If you want good health info and good recipes, buy this book.
