April introduced me to paperbackswap.com a little while ago. It's a

really neat way to trade books you're done with for the stuff you want

for the price of shipping. Here's their intro stuff:

If you want a dessert cookbook try Sweet and Natural by Meredith McCarty. She

uses alternative sweeteners and whole grain flour.

I am going to be buying a couple of cookbooks and wondered if anyone would mind

telling me the name of thier favorite cookbook. I do not eat pasta or white

flour products. Also, tell me why you like the cookbook you are suggesting.

Thank you, Wanda

I have many favorites, but probably my top picks would be Cooking With

Rachel by Rachel Albert and Cooking the Whole Foods Way by Christina

Pirello.

 

They are my favorites because of the interesting delicious ideas they

provide. I got a lot of great tips and techniques from both of them

that I have incorporated into other recipes. The recipes range from

very simple to a bit more complex. I find I turn to them again and

again.

The Essential Vegetarian Cookbook

 

And the reason I like it so well, is that with almost every recipe there are

suggestions as to how to vary it, to make it your own recipe. Plus it lists

storage times, both refrigerator and freezer. It also has menu plans,

conversion charts etc.

My new best favorite (today!) is " How to Cook Everything Vegetarian:

Simple Meatless Recipes for Great Food " by Mark Bittman.

 

When he say everything, he means everything! This cookbook is HUGE.

And it covers everything: vegetarian diet and nutrition, shopping,

ethnic foods, and basics such as how to cook various grains and beans.

He also gives numerous variations for his dishes, so there are lots of

ways to use the recipes.

 

This cookbook also has recipes for vegetarian and vegan condiments

like Worcestershire sauce and oyster sauce. If you are off the beaten

track, its helpful to make your own.

 

The book has a hefty retail price tag of $35.00, but Amazon has it for

$20.99 and its worth every cent.

I bought one and once I got it I felt like crying. It was a little 10 page

pamphlet, not the book I had wanted at all. I was still disappointed and

angry, but it was titled " Essential Vegetarian " .

I have Moosewood new clasics and have never found a recipe I like in it. It was

one of the first I got so I used it at first, but within a few months all the

recipies I liked in it, I had found easier or better recipies for.

Here are some links to some of the ones that have been great for my family, good

luck! My husband also eats meat but we were in this situation when we met so he

always knew I wouldn't be cooking it for him. Married me anyway! :-)

 

Try some of these:

 

http://www.amazon.com/Vegan-Lunch-Box-Animal-Free-Grown-Ups/dp/1600940722/ref=pd\

_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1213642886 & sr=8-1

f=pd_bbs_sr_1?ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1213642964 & sr=1-1

 

http://www.amazon.com/Moosewood-Restaurant-Cooks-Home-Recipes/dp/0671679929/ref=\

pd_bbs_sr_2?ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1213642984 & sr=1-2

 

http://www.amazon.com/Moosewood-Restaurant-Low-Fat-Favorites-Flavorful/dp/051788\

4941/ref=pd_bbs_sr_3?ie=UTF8 & s=books & qid=1213642984 & sr=1-3

 

see if you can get any of them from the library before you go spending too much

$$

 

Good luck!

cookbooks

 

 

Hi I am new to vegan and I live with my family who is not vegetarian or

vegan. Its hard as I don't want to see the meat. Any suggestions on a

good cookbook for ideas that I can cook for my family. I am trying to

convert them but its difficult. Possibly kid friendly ideas. My 20

month old doesn't eat meat. But my husband and 8 year old do. please

help. Thank you

A friend of ours gave us " Better Than Peanut Butter and Jelly " (I

forget the author, but you can look it up on amazon). It's a

vegetarian book, has a few vegan option, and some are easily converted

(sub vegan versions of cheese/milk/egg). Some aren't really very

extravagant, they're all geared to be family/kid friendly, too.

They're fairly simple recipes for the most part and I think it also

give basic menu ideas, too.

 

The Veganomicon has been my newest favorite (and I've had it for a

while now). It gives a lot of different kinds of recipes, and even

breaks them down into gluten-free, grocery store friendly, 45min or

less. I've not even tapped into most of the recipes in there, but

every one of them has been good.

 

Simply Vegan has some decent things, too, and we have the two

Moosewood ones, plus one other one (It's a table top book). They're

all pretty decent. I really want to get the Vegan Family Favorites,

it's supposed to be very good.

I also like any of the vegan cookbooks by

 

Dreena Burton -- good basic info on vegan cooking, and interesting recipes

 

Jennifer Raymond -- lots of basic tasty reliable recipes using easy

to find ingredients, tested many many times in her vegan cooking

classes. When nonvegans ask for vegan recipes, I look for one of hers.

 

Joanne Stepaniak -- she has a bunch of small cookbooks, one of which

is all about making fake cheeses from nuts and nutritional yeast.

I've known people who've made these, but have never made them myself

-- I'd rather eat the nuts.

 

(even though I read cookbooks for ideas, then make up my own recipes)
