The reviewer who said that this book was high fat was right. The book is more than worth it's price for the Miso Macaroni recipe. It is wonderful. I like that everything needed is easy to find.
Great for all

I am a vegan and I love this book. I have not made anything from the book I have not liked. Even my omni boyfriend approves. It's true maybe some of the food doesn't look as gourmet or fancy as most people are used to, but as for taste it has not failed. Recipies are simple and easy to follow. The book hits home for me. Recommended to anyone, vegan or not.

I purchased this book because of its simplicity. You do not have to stock up on expensive hard-to-find ingredients to make the recipes. The food for the most part is not 'gourmet' but it is tasty and heart-warming. The design of the book itself is nice. The fonts are of a decent size- quite readable without the stupid pretentious cutesy style that many vegetarian cookbooks use. There is a nutrition breakdown for each recipe giving calories, protein, carbs, fat, sodium and fiber. In addition the book is bound so that you can lay it open and it stays flat. Very nice.I would give this book 5 stars, except that it does call for name brand items here & there. It's no big deal, I can simply substitute a different soy cheese, or use my own spice mixture, but it's annoying in its own little way.Over all, I'd have to say that I am impressed with this cookbook for the way it makes eating vegan accessible to people who are concerned about their nutritional intakes and want to be certain they're getting plenty of protein & not too much salt, etc.
