The Best Vegan Cook book to date!
From the moment I saw this book at the Borders where I work I was intrigued...a huge compendium of completely vegan recipes?? I had to investigate further. After borrowing the book from my store about 8 times (yes you can do that if you actually work there...rent brand new books out! WOOOT!) I decided that yeah...it was worth the price tag. I couldn't get enough of it.
Everything I have made has been satisfying and delicious. Everything you ever needed is in here! Need a lasagna recipe...yup..it's here, along with a heavenly tofu-ricotta that is amazing in other things too... Need something extra special for a holiday dinner? Don't want your vegan friends to be left out of a delicious meal? The "quiche" in here is so decadent, it'll be the people eating the turkey who'll be jealous!
Seriously though, for a person just starting out on the vegan diet, not knowing how on earth to turn her faves into animal-friendly dishes, this is for you! Been a vegan for years and want to add some new recipes to the table? This is the book for you. Next to Vegan Cupcakes Take Over the World...buying this book was the best decision I ever made. It's like the Vegan bible! Delish! Get it, cook stuff, enjoy....and share! Seriously, your non-veg friends/family will dig things in here too (PS Don't tell them it's vegan til' they've cleaned their plates....it's more fun that way!"

 strange recipes
Too many very weird ingredients and strange unappetizing recipes. I am a long time experienced, good cook and have dozens of cook books, but I regret buying this book. I will likely not make a single dish from this book. The authors writing style is trying hard to be cutesy and ends up just being annoying.

just fabulous ( cshells15 )
I have made a recent change to living meatless and this book is an amazing companion on the journey! Every recipe I have tried is easy to follow, simple ingredients, and tastes excellent.
For anyone who says you can't have a hearty, "comfort food" meal without meat... this book will prove them wrong!

comprehensive
I am venturing into vegetarian cooking in a serious way only recently. This cookbook gives me many new ideas as well as the basics to get going. The author has a lot of experience; this is one of many cookbooks she has authored. Because it is "vegan" it does not rely on dairy as many vegetarian receipes do. The range of receipes is comprehensive. My friend who has been vegetarian for 20 years got excited when she read it and is ordering one for herself. I can recommend it to both novice and experienced vegetarians.
