Linda Mccartney's Home Cooking
Rating:
5 / 5
I have been an ethical vegetarian for fifteen years. My all time favorite vegetarian cookbook is Linda Mccartney's Home Cooking. Her wonderful recipes are enticing to the most hardened meat eater. I would recommend it to vegetarians and omnivores alike.
Wonderful recipes!

This book was given to me as a gift and I'm indebted to the purchaser. The recipes are obviously made with love and are easy to follow. The Lentil Soup is to die for! I've made it for work several times and everyone loves it. That alone makes the book worthwhile.
Truly wonderful cookbook!

I picked this up on a whim and I'm glad I did. It is written in a very comfortable, casual style and makes you feel as if Linda is really sharing her family recipes. The recipes themselves are unpretentious, and tasty! (I highly recommend the Shepherd's Pie!) The book is written from a lacto-ovo veg perspective, and uses a lot of meat substitutes. Mainstream families would easily be able to incorporate these into a "less meat" lifestyle, or transitioning into vegetarianism. One note, it has a very "British" feel, so you have to keep in mind that "vegetarian mince" is hamburger substitute, etc, other British terms. Also, since she DOES use a lot of meat substitutes, you have to keep an eye on whether she is using TVP, frozen vegetarian ground beef, etc., and also the proportions of the frozen/dried meat analogs. But don't let this put you off. It is easy to catch on. The photos are lovely and mouth watering, too. It is such a great book, and makes me sad that Linda left us so early in her life. May she rest in peace.
