Product Description:


Winner of the 1995 James Beard Award for Best Vegetarian Cookbook

Although many people think that cooking without meat means spending more time in the kitchen, the cooks at the world-renowned Moosewood Restaurant know this isn't so. Busy balancing home, work, and other commitments, they've been cooking for family and friends every day of the week for over twenty years. Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home is the result of that experience -- over 150 carefully honed and tested recipes calling for the best ingredients, accompanied by time-saving tips and planning suggestions, add up to a delicious whole-foods cuisine that is versatile and healthful and can be prepared with a minimum of effort.

This book contains dishes full of exciting flavors, sure to please every taste, from savory soups to substantial main-dish salads, from hearty stews to palate-teasing "small dishes." Sauces, salsas and dressings, and a collection of almost-instant desserts turn the simplest meal into an occasion.

Chapters on techniques and menu planning, lists of recipes for special needs, including nondairy and vegan fare and kid-pleasing food, as well as an in-depth guide to stocking the meatless pantry (including a list of recommended convenience foods), make Moosewood Restaurant Cooks at Home the essential companion to everyday cooking.

Amazon.com Review:
The Moosewood Collective has had big vegetarian cookbook success with other collections. The main aim of this addition to their list is to offer much-needed help to those who need recipes for speedy preparation. Most take less than 30 minutes preparation. Recipes include stir-fries, salads, sandwiches, bean dips, soups, scones, pancakes and desserts. Almost all are vegan, with dairy products offered only as optional extras, though there is a separate section on fish and eggs. Winner of the 1995 James Beard Award for vegetarian cookbooks.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - If you like food...
...you'll like this book. I would even venture to say, you'll love this book! It's not just for vegetarians or crunchy types either. Perfect for your meat-and-potatoes loving housemate, this book proves that vegetarian cooking can be flavorful, quick, healthful, and cheap! Combining a variety of flavors and cuisines, I often find myself looking for an excuse to cook dinner using this book. Complete with menu suggestions and clear type not found in the old seventies Moosewood cookbooks, this book is almost too easy to use. You'll never spend more than 40 minutes cooking dinner ever again. And for those of you who don't have a dishwasher, that is key!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Moosewood Vegetarian cookbook
Excellent cook book. I bought this for my son who recently married a vegetarian. I am impressed with the recipes and of how easy they are to make. I highly recommend this cookbook to anyone vegetarian or not. My best friend is a chef and tells me that these recipes are excellent and very flavorful. I am sure that vegetarians especially appreciate that.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Better than expected
I knew I wanted this cook book. I had seen a copy at a friend's house and loved it. And when I found it on Amazon at such a great price, I ordered it immediately. Most of the recipes use common ingredients, most of them are low enough in calories to fit in an everyday diet and fast enough to prepare to also fit in everyday. It was all I expected and more -- a big statement from a West Texan who has never purchased a vegetarian cook book before in her life! A delicious buy.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Moosewood Rocks!
Great Cookbook! I have recently become a pescetarian and this book has been great for helping with the transition. Good food, easily prepared with menu recommendations for each recipe.
