Average Rating:
 Rating:  - To much wheat and soy etc.Sorry but I was dissapointed. To be fair I have been a vegetarian since May and decided to transition to a vegan. I haven't had much experience with vegan cooking so I sent for the book. There was a lot of wheat breadcrumbs , soy, soya sauce etc. I try not to use wheat because it is one of the number one allergy sources. I am not to sold on whether soy is good for you or not. I really didn't see anything that looked appetizing. I have tried a few vegan recipes on the internet like lentil loaf and lentil tacos and they were good. I just didn't see anything on here that looked good enough to try. Rating:  - Really GreatI really love this cookbook. I'm not really much of a cook, and after I went vegan I feel into a rut of packaged rice and beans and canned veggies. I got other vegan cookbooks but I didn't really know where to start with them. This cookbook, however, divides the meals into days of the week and puts a grocery list at the beginning of each week. So instead of debating over what to eat and planning ahead for my grocery trip, I just take the list with me and I have dinners planned for the whole week. The food has been surprisingly good, too. I've only had one bad recipe, but I think I cooked that wrong anyways. The deserts aren't really that creative, they're basically just fruit with soygurt or baked fruit with sugar/maple syrup on top (that's good on soy ice cream) but the dinners more than make up for it. If you're a more experienced cook who's just new to veganism then you might like a more elaborate cookbook, like the Veganomican, but if you're not good at cooking or are having problems finding one-serving recipes then you'll love this book. Rating: - Most useful cookbook EVERI decided to go vegetarian a few months ago, and have been purchasing cookbook after cookbook. Out of all the ones I own, this is got to be the most useful. The shopping lists at the beginning of each week's list make preparation a cinch, and I'm not ending up with five times the food. A lot of the recipes end up with some leftovers, which is great for saving money at lunch the next day (and not for the next week!) Some of the recipes are on the blandish side, but I'm one of those people whose philosophy is "the spicier the better." I just add a little extra pepper or something else to give it a kick, and the recipe's fine for me! Rating: - Quick, creative, deliciousThis is BY FAR the most clever cookbook I've ever used. I've had it for a while and just recently decided to use it as it is intended. I followed the shopping list and have been making the recipes for the week. My thoughts: 1. recipes are varied, interesting and delicious 2. recipes are easy to prepare, and quick to make 3. the shopping list takes all the planning out of weekly cooking. 4. because you only have to go shopping once, it is fun to see what the next meal will turn out to be. Seriously, my husband is not a vegan and he has been eagerly asking me each day, so what's for dinner tonight! Because you know you have all the ingredients and they are so simple to make I almost feel like I am eating out each night trying something new. There really is a lot of variety and taste. These recipes were carefully tested because each and everyone so far has gone off without a hitch (and leftovers!)
