In the introduction to How to Eat like a Vegetarian, the authors
state that their reason for writing this book is that their friends
kept telling them, "We would become vegetarian if you cooked for
us." Both writers have been vegetarian for a combined 50-plus years
and share numerous helpful ideas, simple recipes, menus, and advice
born from experience.Some interesting sections in this book include
"Ten Ways to Eat More Vegetables, " "Ten Different Things You Can
Do with Chickpeas," and "Steddas," which has recipes substituting
for dishes that ordinarily contain animal products. Here you'll
find recipes for Tofu Cottage Cheese, Cheezy Sauce, and more.
Finally, "Vegetarian Cooking Without Recipes" offers numerous
suggestions for non-cooks and busy people.-- (10/15/2009)
