PETA is People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and it has been one of the foremost organizations advocating compassion for animals. One of the cornerstones of their advocacy is the use of substitutes for meat, dairy products, eggs, honey and other foods derived from animals. This text shows how easy and delicious meals can be created without imposing on the other species of the planet.

Awsome!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Cooking with PETA: Great Vegan Recipes for a Compassionate Kitchen (Paperback)
This was our first vegan cookbook and we had a field day testing the recipes! My daughter loves the knishes and the vegan lasagne, and the recipes are easy to follow as well as delicious. Throughout the text are cute stories and tidbits of info for new vegans, and the introduction is a good explanation of the "basics." (Like what to do with that jiggling tofu cube, etc.) Enjoy!!

Not worth the money,

I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone who isn't used to cooking with American measurements. I have found it very difficult to convert the recipes to English measurements and some of the recipes haven't been that good because of this. It's a lot of money for what it is.

Yum!,
By S. Sims - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cooking with PETA: Great Vegan Recipes for a Compassionate Kitchen (Paperback)
I bought this book four years ago, when I was fourteen years old and new to the world of veganism. I'd tried many vegan recipes and for the most part, they were really bad! It didn't help that I was an extremely picky eater and grossed out by tofu, even though I tried. I also didn't have much experience cooking and that didn't help any. I tried a few recipes from this book and thought they were good. To show how good this cookbook is, I'm no longer vegan, but this is the cookbook I use the most! I still make Wake 'Em Up Pancakes once a week or so because they're the best pancakes I've ever encountered. They're excellent made with any juice you have on hand, though they'll be pink if you use cranberry juice and purple if you use raspberry juice. I actually use this cookbook more now even though I'm not vegan anymore (though I eat little meat) because the recipes are great and I'm a much more experienced cook now and am no longer a picky eater. My copy is actually falling apart now. I definitely recommend this book to vegans as well as non-vegans and my other favorites are 150 VEGAN FAVORITES by Jay Solomon and NONNA'S ITALIAN KITCHEN by Bryanna Clark Grogan (this is vegan as well).

200+ Pages of Tasty Vegan Recipes,
By Peter Correnty - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Cooking with PETA: Great Vegan Recipes for a Compassionate Kitchen (Paperback)
Easy-to-follow, fun recipes sorted by meal or course: breakfast, appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, main entrees, drinks, etc. Some nutritional information is provided (calories, protein, fat, carbs, calcium, fiber and sodium). I would have liked to have been given more nutritional information for each recipe. Additionally, some of the recipes are outrageously unhealthy (The "Nutty Zucchini Loaf" has 621 calories, 48 grams of fat and 449 mg of sodium per serving.) One important concern for vegans is overlooked (or perhaps intentionally not addressed to be as apolitical as possible) by this author: Some recipes call for a "greased pan." Some store-bought lards and vegetable oils are manufactured by large companies that repeatedly and unneccessarily test their products in cruel and inhumane manners on tens of thousands of animals annually. In a truly "compassionate kitchen," an informed vegan consumer probably would not purchase / use products manufactured by these companies.Overall, the recipes themselves are excellent (5 star rating for the recipes). The book is easy-to-follow, well-organized, has a glossary of ingredients, and documents some informational resources such as web sites, other cookbooks, vegetarian groups, and more. Recommended. 19 of 25 people found the following review helpful:
