Vegetarian Cooking for Good Health

Summary: Umm, Gary...If you eat fish, you're not a vegetarian
Review: As a long-time vegetarian and vegetarian cook, I have to admit I was biased against this book as soon as I saw the fish recipes--but I put that aside and started cooking some of the book's real vegetarian recipes. Bland! Bland! Bland! Wanting to give the book a fair shake, I tried 12--not one of which my husband or I (or even our dog, who eats every plant food known to humans) ate more than one bite of. There are so many fabulous--really fabulous--vegetarian (and health-oriented non-vegetarian) cookbooks out there that there is no need to waste your money or time with this one. After all, no matter how healthy a recipe appears, if no one will eat the finished product how can the recipe contribute to good health?

Summary: Since when did fish become a vegetable?
Review: Beware fellow vegetarians. This cookbook contains a plethora of fishy recipies. To call this a vegetarian cook book is a lie.

Summary: A misleading title!
Review: I feel bad giving a book a one star rating, but the title of this book is completely misleading. A vegetarian does not eat animals, and this includes fish, yet the cookbook has a whole section on fish. I did try a few of the non fish recipes, trying to give the book a chance, and they just didn't do anything for me. Fortunately, There are tons of excellent vegetarian cookbooks out there (sans fish!)

Summary: Delicious Healthy Cooking
Review: While I can't argue that fish do not fit into most vegetarian's definition of vegetarianism, it is not uncommon for both health advocates and the general public to make this "mistake." The fact is that this book provides quick, easy, healthful, and incredibly delicious recipes. It is particularly suited to individuals or couples as it doesn't yield giant portions. I have found that every receipe I make from this book makes me look like a gourmet, while still helping me maintain a healthy eating lifestyle.
