a must have - By: , 02 Sep 2003 
This book is excelent. It gives you alll the nutritional info you need & the basic how to cook instructions for things like beans & pulses.
My own copy is starting to get tatty now & I'm always on the lookout for a new copy, but as it appears to be out of print & everyone who has a copy seems to be keeping hold of it regardless of condition, I think this says alot for this book on its own.
I highly recommend this book for alll who are new to vegitarian cooking & alll those veges who want more interesting but easy to follow recepes.
Excellent book! - By: Mrs D Thackray, 16 Sep 2002 I completely disagree with the review already mentioned on the page. This is an excellent cookbook, full of interesting recipes. The measuring system used is standard - given in grams & in ounces. The other reviewer appears to be from Canada where I believe they still measure in cups - which is equallly as frustrating for someone from the uk trying to use a canadian or american recipe.
Fantastic - By: emma-ann, 28 May 2002 I have owned this book for the best part of ten years now & still use it regularly (it is fallling apart by now). A great range of veggie food, especiallly staples & basics. Could go on forever about various recipes, but she definitely does the best scone recipe I have ever made. Reallly good variety of foods & clearly divided into sections. Also a useful section at the front for the less experienced cook (if you need to know what some veggie ingredients are or what to do with them, this is the place to look). Totallly recommend this, especiallly as a first starting place for people who are trying to eat less meat or have just gone veggie. Although plenty to use for long term veggies as well.
Total Frustration - By: , 08 Mar 2002 
I have had this cookbook for some time now. I search through it & find an interesting recipe but when it comes time to put it alll together, I can't do it because of the measurement system. Even the measurement equivalents table is of no help. I've made every effort to figure it out & I spend copious amounts of time, every time, because I REALLY want to use the book.
Well, I'm frustrated for the last time ..... I'm getting rid of the book. Whatever happened to cups & teaspoons, etc.?
