Over 100 egg- and dairy-free vegetarian recipes that duplicate and convert traditional poultry and egg dishes to satisfy the taste buds without destroying the birds. This description may be from another edition of this product.
I tend to be very critical of most cookbooks because they usually end up having a few good recipes each, but then take up a lot of room on the shelf. But this one has NEVER disappointed me. There is such an array of really tasty, creative, and many very EASY to make recipes. But the best part is that there are dishes that I can make for the entire family. Highly recommended. I've also bought this for wedding gifts and have heard great reviews from them as well. Some of our favorites: * Macaroni and Chickpea Salad -- you can't believe it's not traditional egg salad. * Red Pepper Chofu w/ pine nuts and spinach -- colorful, really flavorful, and major hit at parties even among the carnivorous. * Shepherd's Omelet - you won't believe it. It's tofu blended to look, taste, and feel just like a scrambled egg omelet. * Tofu Eggless Salad - great picnic food. * Lemon "Chicken" - out of this world. * And for the kids -- lots of mild tofu nugget type dishes. * lots of desserts too.
Great for the whole family

I own countless vegetarian cookbooks and this is the ONLY one that has never let me down. Every single recipe I prepared (over half of all the recipes in the book) has been successful -- great tasting and easy to prepare. There are many recipes in here that young picky children will eat as well.
A superb contribution to the vegetarian cookbook shelf.
