Venturesome Vegetarian Cooking: Bold Flavors for Meat- And Dairy-Free Meals

Rating:
Summary: A welcome new vegetarian cook book
Review: I was fortunate enough to be able to take a gander at an advanced copy of the book, and I have to say the book is one of the best vegetarian books out there today.

The foods are exciting, bold, and unlike many vegetarian cook books out there, it doesn't try to be different for the sake of being different. Many veg cook books seem as if they are simply trying to make dishes that include as many odd combinations as humanly possible to cover up the fact they don't have meat. One example is a pesto and carrot pasta bake that I saw in one cook book. This book has many old favorites that are updated and modified to not include meat or dairy, and in ways that you won't miss them at all.

Hopefully this book is the first of many that we'll see from these authors.
