How to Cook Everything Vegetarian: Simple Meatless Recipes for Great Food

I have several other classic vegetarian cookbooks and this one is a fantastic addition. Bittman's writing style makes everything accessible and everything is demystified. I particularly like his treatments of proteins - tofu, tempeh, etc. I've had this cookbook for 2 weeks and have already made 5 new recipes. Every page is valuable.

Where was this book when I first became vegetarian over 17 years ago! It will be my wedding gift when my two children get married.

Having been a vegetarian for over twenty years, I have perused and purchased many a cookbook. This is one of the few I would call indispensable. The book lives up to its title. Every single thing I have made from it thus far is delicious. Vegetarians sometimes run the risk of resorting to the same meal choices. Bittman's book solves the problem of vegetarian boredom. He also suggests vegan options, and emphasizes world cuisine.

I've had this book for about nine months now and I still use it almost everyday. I never really enjoyed cooking, but when I quit eating meat, I felt like it was time to finally learn. I tried several different cookbooks, but this was the one that finally got me cooking and loving it! Best cookbook ever!

this book has been a lifesaver for me! I've been stuck in a rut, picking out the same vegetables and cooking them the same. This book is so comprehensive and easy, that I have been able to introduce new veggies to my family without the "eeeewwwwww" factor. We've also made our own cheese and the kids loved the tofu recipes. I would definately recommend it to everyone with kids!
