Fat-Free & Easy: Great Meals in Minutes: No Added Fat, No Cholesterol, No Animal Ingedients Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)What a find! For anyone looking for easy, tasty, low fat vegetarian recipes, this book is a "must have." Banana Dream Pie, Tofu Cheesecake, moist cornbread, zesty mushroom soup...all fabulous recipes that can be made in minutes. The majority of the ingredients used are available in regular grocery stores, which is helpful. I have 83 vegetarian cookbooks and this is one of my absolute favorites - because of its simplicity, consistently good recipes and because the recipes are fat free. By the way, it's vegan (no dairy, eggs, or any other animal products).

Meatless Meals for Working People Quick and Easy Vegetarian Recipes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I LOVE this cookbook--it's the only one I have which is truly easy and brainless. (i.e, "throw these six things into the pot, and cook at med. heat for 20 min.") I became veg as a pre-teen, with a mother who hated to cook, so I never learned how to cook ANYTHING! Now, trying to go vegan, I need to know how to make healthy food for my husband, toddler and baby too! This book is awesome for people like me who don't know how to cook and don't have a lot of time to learn. If, however, you know how to cook/like to cook, you'd probably be better off with something more fancy. This IS, however, a GREAT starting-out, "idea book".

The Gluten-Free Vegan: 150 Delicious Gluten-Free, Animal-Free Recipes Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)If you have celiac and you have ever tried to go vegan, you have probably woken up several days later, laughing hysterically: "There's nothing to eat!"
Not so: mayonnaise, meatloaf, brownies--it's all here.
The author also limits recipes that use corn, soy, and sugar, resulting in food that is low glycemic index, allergy-free, vegan and gluten-free. Perfect, perfect, perfect.
Well, almost: many of the recipes have long ingredient lists, but they won't take forever, and they include recipes that can be cooked a month in advance and then frozen. (Your mother should have taught you not to freeze tomatoes.)
My only real complaint is the book's discussion of oats: the author says that oats don't have gluten, and so they are safe. Actually, oats contain avenin, which is just a different form of gluten; in a test tube, intestinal samples have an immune reaction to avenin; but, in live people, there are many fewer anti-gliadin antibodies (the bad stuff) in diagnosed celiacs who eat oats.
The problem is, some celiacs do fine on oats--and some don't. It's difficult to tell until the person in question starts to get sick again.
However, with that one caveat, this cookbook is way cool, and very, very useful. If you are willing to spend any time in the kitchen at all, this is well worth picking up.

Eat, Drink & Be Vegan: Everyday Vegan Recipes Worth Celebrating Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I should have written a review of this cookbook long ago, but I finally just put my fork down (literally) after eating another one of ED&BV's fabulous recipes and said, "People must know how great this cookbook is!" And here I am :)
What did I just finish? The White Bean, Walnut, and Spinach Phyllo Rolls with the Traditional Cranberry Sauce. This is the second time I have made it. It is unbelievable. So easy, but so elegant and delicious. That's how I characterize a lot of Dreena's recipes - easy, elegant, delicious. This book is full of uncomplicated recipes with easy to find ingredients (at least, for me - I have a decently stocked Stop & Shop, Shaw's Supermarket, Whole Foods, and health food store within a 15-mile radius). The results have all been spectacular. I've also made (and LOVED) the Olive Oyl Pasta, White Bean & Rosemary Soup with Jumbo Croutons (OMG amazing), Sun-Dried Tomato Pesto with Toasted Almonds and Pine Nuts, Sweet Potato Lentil Chili, Rosemary Cornmeal Polenta Fries, Lentil Veggie Chimichangas with Hide the Lentils Tomato Sauce, Coconut Lime Basmati Rice, Cashew-Ginger Tofu, Thai Chick-Un Pizza, Orange Sesame Tofu, Olive and Sun-Dried Tomato Hummus, Savory French Lentils, Cimmamon Lime Quinoa with Apricots and Almonds, One Wild Chick Soup (honestly, it is as savory and filling as the best chicken and rice soup you would have eaten in your "omni" days), Veggie Tempeh Muffaletta (I think I'm in love...probably the most time-consuming recipe in the book, but it is sooooooo worth it!), Beats a BLT Sandwich! (sure does!), Spicy Sweet Potato and Peanut Stew with Polenta Croutons, Cumin Lime Tofu, Autumn Puree, Smoky Split Pea Soup, Quinoa Chickpea Confetti Casserole, Moroccan-Infused Phyllo Rolls with Balsamic Maple Sauce (mmmmmmm so good!), and Monkey Minestrone. I literally cannot believe how many more of the recipes I want to try. I think I am going to try almost every single one in the book! Dreena makes everything seem so accessible. I'd never made anything with tempeh before (despite began a vegan for a while now!) but with her clear, step by step instructions and sidebars, Dreena makes vegan cooking approachable for everyone, vegans and omnis alike. I can tell you, I have not even come close to using as many recipes in my other vegan cookbooks as I have with ED&BV. Let me be frank... I own several vegan cookbooks...all the major titles by all the major vegan cookbook authors...and this is, by FAR, the best of the bunch. If you own one vegan cookbook, make it ED&BV. You won't regret it!
