Format:Hardcover
I have been vegetarian for over 25 years, and have run through the gamut of Rose Elliot, Diet for a Small Planet, Moosewood, Greens, Millennium, you name it. This book is in a different league. I received it as a gift, and it is now my favorite cookbook. The recipes are nutritious, flavorful and colorful. No pretensions or politics, just inspiring, clear and artfully simple recipes. This is a book that celebrates the beauty and flavor of vegetables, and even my kids like it!

Not only are the recipes delicious and relatively simple, but the author tells you how to make types of dishes, such as risotto and polenta. And, if you follow his instructions, by George, it turnes out perfectly. I never made either risotto or polenta before, and now I make them all the time. I've given this book as a gift twice and probably will give it again.

This is a simply marvelous cookbook -- the first one I reach for when planning a meal, from a simple salad to a celebratory dinner party. Although I still love to browse my dozens of other cookbooks, this is the one I most often end up cooking from. I have never been so pleased by so many recipes from a single cookbook, and each recipe is so very much more than the sum of its parts: I am often amazed at how flavorful and unusual these easy, simple, low-fat dishes are. An especially great book for people who would like to eat more vegetables and less meat. Bravo!

Delicious, "doable", truly authentic Italian!
This book is wonderfully full of Italian vegetarian recipes that I can imagine home cooks in Italy use. I love the "realness" of the recipes. Read more
