Rating:  Summary: Easy and tasty Review: I was looking for a good book to use with my slow cooker and came across this - while its not intended for the slow cooker you can certainly do a lot of the recipes in it. That aside, it's definitely all in one pot which means - easy to make and clean up which is a big bonus on a busy day! No pictures to drool over but the titles of the recipes are quite inviting. I've only made a few of the stews so far but each has been good. The table of contents includes the following: - Intro: Eating Vegetarian - The vegetarian Soup Pot - Vegetarian Skillet Dinners - The Vegetarian Stew pot - Vegetarian pasta - Vegetables in the Wok - From a Vegetarian Oven - From the Vegetarian Saucepan and SteamerIts not a vegan cookbook - eggs, sour cream, milk, cheese are mentioned in various recipes - I just substitite as needed and it seems to work out. In terms of variety - there are lots of differnet types of flavors and cultures represented - middle eastern indian, southern comfort foods, greek, italian etc. Lots of variety.

Rating:  Summary: The BEST cookbook I've seen for quick, easy veg. meals! Review: This is the BEST cookbook I've seen for quick and easy veg meals! I use this book constantly and every recipe has been delicious--no disappointments. What I really love about this book is that the ingredients are very accessible, usually items that I have in my house--nothing exotic or hard to find like in some other books. Also the ingredients lists are typically short--no long list of 20 ingredients for 1 recipe.
The meals are pretty healthy and the book has many different types of items--everything from soups to stews to pastas etc...
Good, solid, healthy veg. meals that are quick and easy to prepare. I couldn't ask for anything more...oh, except pictures maybe...
