Product Description
Product Description
Not just for vegetarians, there′s never been a better time for this award–winning book! Carol Gelles, one of the best–known authorities on the subject, offers hundreds of appetizers, entrees, soups, salads, and more, proving that vegetarian cuisine is anything but boring. The flavor combinations are limitless, drawing on the ingredients and spices from every international cuisine. Discussions of vegetables, grains, beans, and soyfoods are interspersed throughout the recipes, making the book easy enough for beginners to follow. And every recipe is coded as lacto–vegetarian (some dairy products), ovo–vegetarian (some egg products), or vegan (made without dairy or meat products).
From the Inside Flap
1,000 Vegetarian Recipes Have you been searching for a collection of delicious vegetarian recipes? What about easy–to–prepare vegetarian recipes, or those that are healthful? Then 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes is the book for you—no other vegetarian cookbook comes even close. Author Carol Gelles has spent years creating recipes for a variety of tastes and needs, whether you're a beginner vegetarian, long–time vegetarian, or someone trying to eat meatless meals just a couple of times each week for better health. If you're a vegan (a vegetarian who doesn't eat eggs or dairy products), you've probably been frustrated in the past by vegetarian cookbooks that don't address your needs. Again, no other cookbook offers you as many choices as 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes, with hundreds of vegan recipes throughout (all clearly marked with a "V" at the tops of the recipes). And many of the lacto–ovo vegetarian recipes include vegan variations. You probably already know that the vegetarian lifestyle is a healthy one, but if you're looking specifically for low–fat recipes, those dishes are specially marked with a "healthy heart" symbol for easy reference. In addition to the 1,000 recipes, Gelles offers a bounty of information on vegetarian food, including cooking charts for beans and grains; shopping lists for stocking the vegetarian pantry; a glossary of ingredients; a lesson on the health benefits of a meatless diet; and menu–planning advice, with menu suggestions for every taste—Chinese, French, Mexican, Indian, and more. Whether you already own a dozen vegetarian cookbooks, or this will be your first, 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes is the one cookbook a vegetarian can't do without. A Few of the Delicious Meatless Recipes

An outstanding source for all your gravings,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1000 Vegetarian Recipes (1,000 Recipes) (Hardcover)
This book has repeatedly inspired me to try out those incredients that previously had seemed strange and undesirable to me. In fact, Carol Gelles has inspired me to cook real meals instead of fast and generally unhealthy fare. I found it to be particularly appealing that most of Gelles' recipes do not rely on Tofu or related products as they are not to my taste. I have yet to find the one recipe that does not taste good.

The best Cookbook I've ever owned.,
By A Customer
This review is from: 1000 Vegetarian Recipes (1,000 Recipes) (Hardcover)
1,000 Vegetarian Recipes got me started cooking and I haven't stopped since. The difficulty with most cookbooks is that if you are a vegetarian you must seek and sort out the recipes which don't use some sort of animal flesh product. 1,000 Vegetarian Recipes makes it simple - every single recipe is meatless - therefore appropriate for my household. Carol Gelles also has a coded system for the different types of vegetarian diets (Lacto-Ovo, Lacto, Ovo and Vegan). She even includes a review of nearly every recipe and alternative ways of making them. I've gone from being a non cooking person to being known for my great talents in the kitchen. My secret being this one book! I'm planning to make every single recipe. I also recommend it to everyone I know. It's the best thing that ever happened to our kitchen.
