Summary: My new favorite cookbook
Comment: My partner and I received this book as a Christmas gift. I have a rather extensive cookbook collection, and I assumed that this book would remain with the others, referenced from time to time. Instead, it rarely makes its way back tot he shelf as I am always cooking from it. So far, we are about 10 for 10 with good recipes; I haven't hit upon a bad one yet. I am so confident in this cookbook, that I will make a dish for company or a pot-luck without testing it first. The recipes are simple, easy, and absolutely delicious. I recommend this book to anyone who loves good food.

Summary: Simple and Delicious
Comment: When I first became a vegetarian 5 years ago I was a bit intimidated. I received this book as a gift and realized that there were tons of delicious vegetarian items that I could make for myself and that my meat-eating family would enjoy.

I have made many of the recipes including Tiny Eggplant Turnovers, Fried Ravioli, and frequently make the Mediterranean Vegetable Soup (which is excellent and easy to adjust depending on what vegetables you have on hand).

I am still cooking with it today and highly recommend it.

Summary: A very pleasant surprise
Comment: I ordered this based on all the great reviews. When it came, I was a little disappointed because there are no pictures (sounds silly, but I like to see what the dish will look like) and none of the recipes really jumped out at me. Strapped for ideas, though, I started making some of them, and I've been so shocked at how well they turned out. They've been delicious and flavorful and relatively simple. True, the short list of ingredients means you should splurge and buy the best since those are the ones you'll be tasting, which is not good for me because I just got out of college, but all-in-all it's been a money-saver and I'm always impressed by the results. The only bad experiences have been the ones where I substituted ingredients. Try the butternut squash soup, which is just like Jeanne Lemlin says: sunshine in a bowl. Many of the dishes also work well as leftovers. I definitely recommend it to vegetarians and non-vegetarians alike.

Summary: Everyday favorites
Comment: One of my favorite vegetarian cookbooks. Nothing fancy, but lots of reliable everyday meals and a few real gems. My favorites are the black bean chili (meat eaters don't realize it's veggie) and the triple rice salad (beautiful and perfect for the holidays). I've given this book as a gift to at least 3 others--none are vegetarians, but they all love this book.

Summary: Gems!
Comment: Our family stopped eating meat about 10 years ago. (There were so many reasons---health, humaneness, environmental concerns---but I'm probably preaching to the converted here.) My wife has a shelf full of cookbooks, but whenever a meal turns out to be especially delicious and interesting, it's usually from one of Jeanne Lemlin's books. I can't recommend them highly enough!
