I have found this book to be a great source of exciting ideas, especially soups, though it is necessary to plan ahead as whilst none of the ingredients have proved difficult to get hold of, they are often not store-cupboard staples. That said it has meant I have tried lots of new ingredients (which have since become store cupboard staples for me). There is a wide variety, the recipes are simply laid out and easy to follow and it is often easy to substitute ingredients with whatever you have to hand. An excellent starting point for anyone who is looking to expand their repertoire of vegie dishes - I would also recommend the good food 101 books for the same purpose.
