I have owned many copies of this book... it is so useful that friends tend to permanently borrow it. The editions with the fish chapter are nice (I am no longer a vegetarian.) Shulman indicates how to adapt each recipe for a low-salt diet, if needed, and offers plausible menu combinations. The recipes tend to be blander than I like, so I simply triple the spices/herbs in each recipe and I'm happy.

A fun way to be inspired... I have several recipes marked to try.

There's more dairy in these recipes than I'm comfortable with, but this is a great book for non-fussy vegetarian cooking. And it's a delightful change from some of the more elaborate vegetarian recipes in other cookbooks:

1. Gather lentils from field
2. Soak lentils for two moonlit nights
3. Boil until hell freezes over.
4. Season with herbs you've never heard of and cannot find in the store.

This book has some of the best soup recipes that I have ever used.
The ultimate compliment to this book came from my husband - "I didn't even miss the meat"

Meh. A few good recipes, but nothing special.

Although I really like the recipes I've made from this, I just don't use it that often...
