The Easy Vegetarian

Summary: The Easy Vegetarian Cookbook
Review: The Easy Vegetarian is well-named in more ways than just making life as a vegetarian an easier one than it has been in the past. Key word here is "Easy". The recipes in this little jewel of a book are easy to make and the ingredients called for are going to be on most of our pantry shelves, making it easy to throw one of these dishes together for a quick and satisfying meal. Recipes cover items from Eggless Chocolate Chip Cake to Crunchy Nutty Loaf to Dave's Lasagna (made with tofu instead of meat). There is something for every taste bud in The Easy Vegetarian and I find the dishes are "easy" to eat -- meaning "delicious and I need a second serving, please".

What is handy about this new cookbook is the size. It's small enough to throw into your purse to take along to supermarket with you and the wire spiral binding makes its easy to open, lay flat, fold back or even prop/stand on the counter while you cook away. On the back of every page is an inspirational thought that seems so appropriate for a book this size. This little cookbook will make a nice gift or stocking stuffer for a favorite friend or relative.......or new (or old) vegetarian.

This is Portia Little's second in a series of books this size, the first being "Recipes, Roses and Rhymes". I'm already looking forward to her next cookbook and I can see this as a whole series.
