Great Cookbook May 8, 2008
This is a great cookbook. I have all of Louise Hagler's cookbooks and she never lets us down. I do recommend that you buy the previous edition as well as this edition. This edition has some new recipes, but the previous version has nutritional information for each recipe. Also, the pictures in this version are smaller than in the previous version. Both books are purchases that you will not regret.

A fantastic, versatile, and convenient cookbook. VEGAN too! February 8, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

This is a great American tofu cookbook, though that is not to say that there are only tofu recipes. A lot of vegetarian cookbooks require weird, hard to find ingredients. The weirdest thing in here is wheat germ. It is true that her recipes are somewhat bland, but they are easy to spice up and i think it is better that way so they can be personalized. Everything I've made has been a huge hit with my family. The servings are appropriate and the recipes are very easy and mostly quick. It is easy to read and well-organized. Although she doesn't advertise this (and should), ALL the recipes are VEGAN!! You really won't miss the dairy or eggs in most recipes. Although the meatloaf, meatballs, and potato pancakes require eggs to really stick, it's not necessary. And these vegan recipes do NOT taste vegan (speaking as a former vegan). The comfort food is great as is the asian and mexican food.

I HIGHLY recommend this cook book. It is the most used of all in my repertoire including both Vegetarian Epicures, Moosewood, Julia Child, Joy of Cooking, and several other vegetarian cookbooks.

My favorite cook book! October 10, 2007
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I am a vegetarian and this is the perfect book for anyone else who is. It's more veggie friendly rather than vegan friendly, but I'm sure you can substitute a lot of the ingredients. This is a great cookbook that has resulted in numerous wonderful meals for me. I would say that there was only one recipe in this book that I tried and didn't love.

The ingredients and instructions are presented in a clear and concise manner. This book may be a bit older, but I've used several cookbooks and this is the one that I always keep coming back to. I only wish that it would indicate difficulty level and prep time amounts.

Glad I Bought This One!! June 29, 2007
3 out of 3 found this review helpful

I have been exploring tofu and other meat alternatives since my gastric bypass surgery over a year ago. I still have not been able to stomach meat. I bought several tofu books and vegetarian books and this was by far the superior one I've purchased. What I like about the book:
1. The large easy to read fonts.

2. Each recipe is layed out in steps for preparing the meal.

3. I love that the nutritional values per serving are given!!! There are so many books that do not include that information and its extrememly helpful for persons who are trying to track what they eat.

4. The recipes are appealing and simple and so far all have been mmm! mmm! good to grrreat!!

5. The recipes are broken up into segments like Dips & Spreads; Soups; Side dishes: etc. Then at the begining of each segment is an alphebetical list of the recipes in that section. So you don't always have to go to the index in the back of the book. You can turn to the segment and glance down the list of recipes to find the one you are looking for.

Because I know I will be using the book often, I took it to Fed-ExKinko's and had it spiral bound. I can't imagine anyone being disappointed in this book. Remember its a tofu cookbook, not necessarily a vegetarian cookbook although most recipes in it are vegetarian or can easily be adjusted to fit the vegetarian fare.
