Vegetable recipes
I was looking for a book with vegetable recipes to add vegetables to my diet. I have tried a few recipes and I think I may not be used to having vegetables in my diet but I am going to continue to try. The pickling of the brocolli stems is too sweet for my taste. I will try it again by using the unseasoned rice vinegar. The other pickling recipes in the the book are also sweet. Many recipes require a food processor, I do not have one. Recipes require some unique foods that are not normally in my pantry. If you are looking for a vegatable cook book, this is a good beginning because it has all kinds of vegetables with a variety of ingredients. The book is printed without color or pictures of the final product, the book is also less expensive than some other books.

Love this book
I have most of Mollie Katzen's cook books. Recently, I have really been making an effort to eat more vegetables and deeply appreciate this book that focuses on delicious recipes for vegetables!! They really are good to eat!

GREAT VEGGIE COOKBOOK
I was looking for creative ways to get more fresh veggies into our diet and this cookbook solved that problem. The recipes are easy to follow, ingredients are readily available seasonally, and the end results are delicious. The leek chips are fabulous, the shiitake slaw was wonderful, the spaghetti squash with carmelized onions was an unusual way to prepare spaghetti squash and got rave reviews from my family. We are shopping at our local farmers markets now for fresh produce and this book is a great asset to preparing those fresh veggies in a healthy, creative and delicious way!
