A treat to use and read, every veggie home needs this book Rating:
5 / 5
I purchased this book after a trip to the Farm in 2004.
What a lifesaver. I wish I would have had this book earlier.
Completely easy to read and visually pleasing. The artwork makes this book unique and fun to read. But enough about the pictures, the recipes are fantastic and it's easy to add and adapt to your own tastes. I love the section on soymilk and the TVP section has saved me a ton of money (I no longer buy premade soy crumbles). A must for every veggie kitchen.

This is the BEST vegan cookbook using basic ingredients that I have ever used! I use it all the time. The recipes are easy, tasty and not too weird!! I have bought copies for my friends and another for myself because I wear it out so much.

I love this cookbook. i've been a vegan for almost five years and have had this since day one.
i recommend this book to all vegans just starting out. the recipes are very simple to prepare, and they are basic foods that everyone loves. this is the only cookbook where i've cooked almost everything in the book and liked it all. many vegans starting out may be intimidated and think they don't have many meal options. with these recipes, there are always leftovers that they can be munched on all week long. aside from the simplicity of the meals, the portions are large. i always make the TVP gravy and Sloppy Joes. there is minimal cooking involved and i always have leftovers.
for the experienced vegan, there are great recipes like alfredo sauce and meals with nutritional yeast (an acquired taste - i didn't eat it for a LONG time) that never get old. Janie's good biscuits are a classic!
another plus is that since the book was written in the 70's, there aren't any "special" ingredients needed. no extravagant gourmet meals here, you won't have to drive around town looking for kelp powder or mushrooms you've never heard of. highly recommended.
