Product Description:
This uniquely accessible collection draws together the best vegetarian recipes of Italy-350 in all. 'Pasta and pizza may be Italy's most eye-catching exports, but it is the country's varied and sensible use of vegetables that provides the best inspiration for American cooks,' writes Jack Bishop. 'Asparagus spears coated with a little olive oil and roasted to intensify their flavor; thick slices of country bread grilled over an open fire and topped with diced tomatoes and shredded basil from the garden; or a fragrant stew with fennel and peas-Italians enjoy these dishes because of what they do contain, not what they don't.' Many of the recipes were gathered by Bishop during extensive travels throughout Italy. Some are family favorites, adapted from those of his Italian grandmother. All deliver perfect results with a minimum of effort. Serving suggestions for each recipe make planning vegetarian meals easy.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Super Sweet Cookbook
If it weren't for Jack Bishop's amazingly awe inspiring cookbooks, I'd probably give up on cooking and eat McDonald's every night until I succumbed to misery and an early death. For realsies people, this guy is just superb at putting together cookbooks. He sticks mainly to whole foods and is a supporter of fresh herbs and farmers markets and produce, produce, produce(!), but he never pushes his dietary choices in the much too common fashion of many vegetarian/vegan/raw food chefs. Nor does he plaster photos of himself throughout his book. The guy just wins points left and right for being capable of creating a tome of tasty treasures that I'd be willing to buy for friends and family members alike. It's true, some of the dishes can be time consuming, but many of them are fairly quick. Face it folks, if you want home-made ravioli you're going to have to work for it! Oh Mr. Bishop, never again shall I buy marinara sauce in a jar... I hang my head low and try to forget the times when I was a child and believed that all pizza must be slathered with marinara and roughly nine pounds of mozzarella.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Well done! Very good! 100% good!
WoW!!! This is a great cookbook for veggies who love Italian (and who does not?)!

350 great meals, and wonderful tastes to enjoy....if you need some ideas for your veggie kitchen, this will give you great ones.

I found a little known book that is also a great help to veggies in the kitchen, by a guy named Tom, who must be some sort of master at it, you MUST give it a read, its great!!!

Delicious, Healthy And Easy - Tom's Vegetarian Cookbook: Easy Yummy And Nutritional Vegan Recipes

Enjoy!



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Wonderful, except...
I purchased this book for my brother who is a strict vegetarian. Growing up in an Italian family with wonderful cooks we enjoy recipes we're familiar with and have grown up enjoying. This book contains an exceptionl large collection of recipes. The only negative is that it contains no photographs. This doesn't concern me at all, but my brother likes the photos. If the lack of photos is unimportant to you, then you will not find a better source for Italian vegetarian recipes.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Fantastic Cookbook!
This is a great book! I lost it in my recent divorce and it was one of the few books I had to go buy again. The salads and pastas stand out. It's well-written and all the recipes are really quite simple.
