The Good Breakfast Book: Making Breakfast Special

Rating:
Summary: Wonderful Book!
Review: . Despite the title, this great new vegetarian cookbook by Nikki and David Goldbeck, co-authors of American Wholefoods Cuisine, is chock full of recipes for every meal of the day-especially if your toddler, who like me couldn't care less what's "appropriate" to eat at certain times. In addition to brunch and breakfast sections, there are chapters on juicing, lunchbox favorites, baked goods, and wheat, dairy and egg-free recipes and just plain fun food. There are plenty of vegan recipes, too. One addition that new vegetarian parents will find helpful is the Table of Milk Values comparing everything from almond and soy to cow's and goat's milk. Always wondered in today's day and age of ever-available produce exactly when strawberries or grapes are actually in season? They tell you. Does adding coconut to your granola actually increase the protein value-you bet! I hope you love this book as much as I do. If you get it, you must try the Chunky Apple Oatmeal Pancakes

Summary: Best whole wheat pancakes and more!
Review: My husband has never liked anything but white flour pancakes until I made the Basic Whole Wheat Pancakes. They are amazingly light even though they have wheat germ and no white flour at all--it was a very happy surprise. There's also a great table listing everything about all the different milks, nut milks, and the like to help you choose. I will be using this book a lot since I really want to learn to eat well in the mornings.
