Very good buy January 22, 2008

I find with many cook books that the recipes are fiddly and time consuming and usually demand a pinch of one ingredient and a splash of another, and before long you have a cupboard full of rare spices that you are never going to use again. This book however is simple to follow, contains ingredients that are generally easy to find in shops and ones that you are likely to use again.
The book gives ideas for breakfasts, lunches and snacks as well as main courses, and gives a real variety of dishes. I haven't cooked all of them yet, but they are all appealing and all things that you could happily feed to non-vegetarian guests or family members, as I have done to positive feedback!
The only thing I thought was slightly odd is that one of the recipes calls for gelatine, but it's easy enough to steer clear of one recipe, there are plenty to choose from.
All in all, there is something here for everyone. The meals are healthy, simple and tasty.
A useful addition June 1, 2007

After my sister was recently diagnosed with diabetes, I thought I'd give the GI diet a go, as it is supposed to be useful in warding diabetes off.
The book is well written and shows suggested meal plans for Vegetarian Adults, Vegan Adults, Vegetarian Teenagers, Vegan Teenagers, Vegetarian Children and Vegan Children.
The recipes are clearly laid out and easy to follow, and the photography is bright and cheery throughout.
Highly recommended (and better than Rose Elliott's book!)
