Summary: great pictures! bad recipes :(
Review: i really wanted to love this book. the pictures of the dishes throughout the book are amazing. this book does have some great info on yogic diet and fasting, but as i made a number of the dishes in this book i wondered if they really tested them out. the directions sometimes seem to leave out steps and/or ingredients, which makes it hard to follow. maybe i've just been unlucky with the recipes i've chosen over the last 6 months, but the what i've made from this book has not turned out (and i'm not a novice cook). it really is too bad that the recipes don't live up to the picture that go along with them.

Summary: Simple and delicious recipes
Review: I've been using this book for about 6 months. The simple, easy to follow recipes are all delicious, making use of the flavours of fresh ingredients in a subtle but very tantilising way. There is also a great variety of recipes; you would eat very well using only these. The colour photos are also mouth-watering, I just wish there were more of them.

Summary: A Great Guide for Yogic cooking
Review: It was high time for someone to write a book based on the principles of Yogic cooking. Being a Yoga Teacher myself and following the Yogic principles on eating sometimes students wonder how you can create great tasting dishes without onions, garlic, leeks, mushrooms, vinegar etc, now I can tell them just get this book. The recipies are visually well presented and easy to follow, there is something for everyone. I can heartily recommend this book to anyone interested in the practice of Yoga and a healthy vegetarian diet.
