The Quick and Easy Organic Gourmet: Delicious, Healthy Meals Without Meat, Wheat, Dairy, or Sugar

Rating:
Summary: Excellent cookbook,more than recipes, but how to cook too.
Review: I have hundreds of cookbooks and have been cooking a long time. This cookbook stands out on my shelf. I could never make a really good stir fry until Leslie explained the steps and possible stir fry combinations to me in her cookbook. She also has excellent recipes for sometimes difficult to find vegan,wheatless and sugarless recipes. I love this cookbook

Summary: Didn't see any Quick or Easy recipes in it
Review: This is LITERALLY gourmet, not for the everyday cook trying for a better diet!

When I decided to get this book I was expecting to do a little more cooking than average since it had gourmet in the title. And when I got it, it was cool that there were helpful things about different grains and so on that I didn't know before.

But as I looked through the recipes I knew I was never going to make any of them. They had ingredients that were not only hard to find but I wouldn't want to eat them in the first place. (I noticed sea vegetables were in there a bit, ick) I was hoping more for a cookbook that used everyday ingredients from the home and local supermarkets.

All in all it was a nice look see, and a few facts that were new. But I returned mine for a refund.
