I’m not vegan, but picked up this book in hopes of getting some recipes to help us eat more vegetables. Seems to me that the author never goes for a “normal” ingredient if a “fancier” one exists somewhere on the planet (i.e. “French green lentils” instead of just lentils). I live in a small town and while we do have more variety than one might expect, there is a limit to what kinds of ingredients we can get.
I also don’t like the number of garnishes she adds at the end. If a dish can’t stand on its own after cooking, maybe the recipe needs to be changed. An egregious example of this is her lentils with artichokes & mushrooms… after it’s done, you’re supposed to add lemon zest, balsamic syrup (balsamic vinegar that’s been boiled down awhile) and pasley aioli (parsley, lemon juice, olive oil, tofu, garlic, mustard blended together), and some fennel fronds. Way too much fussing for me.
I have found a couple of “keeper” recipes – the corn chowder is scrumptious (although I made it with red potatoes instead of sweet potatoes – shopping error) and the brown rice with roasted vegies was very good (although next time think I’ll skip her recommendation of short-grained brown rice and go with long-grained brown rice).
I’ll try some more of the recipes, but sure wish she’d get over the desire to keep fussing at the dishes.

I borrowed this book from the library but plan to add it to my cookbook collection someday. Recipes sound delicious but I really enjoyed the info on buying, storing, cooking things like Tofu, Beans, Broths, Nuts etc. Great for a creative cook that has lots of ideas for variations.

I have tried several recipes from this book and all have turned out exceptionally good. Especially tasty are the waffles and the Sweet potato soup. I recommend this book highly.

I was excited as I flipped through the pages of this cookbook — many of the recipes sounded tantalizing, and all the color photos displayed tasty looking dishes. HOWEVER, after trying out my first recipe (the curried tempeh and grains), both myself and my dining companion were rather let down. We found the dish incredibly bland and not at all what we had expected. Despite the dissatisfying first attempt, I didn’t let that deter me from trying again. Surely the Thai-Inspired Broccoli w/Coconut Sauce could not fail…. Well, it did. Again, neither of us clamored for seconds, as the dish lacked any real flavor or punch one would expect of something inspired by Thai food. Again and again, this cookbook failed to satisfy — definitely not a keeper.
