Although this book did not initially meet my expectations after sitting down with it for a more in-depth reading I was pleasantly surprised at the lunch and breakfast sections. I found the dinner section frustrating in that it called for more imitation meat products than I prefer to use.This book is very kind to inexperienced vegitarian cooks! I got great compliments from my family and that encouraged me to try another recipe and then another until I have tried over half of them! I use this cookbook more than any other in my kitchen now! THANKS!Great recipes!The recipes in this cookbook helped me to make the lifesyle change that I was ready for. The recipes are quick and easy. I love the vegatable chowder. I lost more than 30 lbs. Whats more, this in not fad dieting, this is a new way to eat -- for good.An amazing book, especially for beginning vegan cooks. Cheryl even includes lists of what is in her own pantry! Very informative and the pictures make your mouth water!This is one of my favorite cookbooks. Easy recipes with ingredients commonly found in your local grocery stores. Healthy foods the whole family likes to eat. Highly recommend.
