From the author of The Big Carrot Vegetarian Cookbook... This book is for everyone: the beginner trying this style of cooking for the first time, the committed vegetarian who wants help with meal planning and is keen to try new culinary delights, and the basic "meat and potatoes" cook needing to incorporate simple, healthy dishes into diets of family members. The cookbook is divided into the three sections: Soups, Salads and Side Dishes, The Main Course, and Baking, Breakfasts and Brunch Treats. Recipes include: Vegetable Chowder, Waldorf Salad, San Francisco-Style Rice, Cider Carrots, Okra Gumbo, Macaroni Moussaka, Brazilian Peanut Stew, Pumpkin Gingerbread, and Banana-Coconut Pie.
