The Vajrapani Institute Cookbook: Recipes and Reflections by Nina K Tomkiewicz

by Nina K Tomkiewicz

Vajrapani Institute's cookbook hopes to inspire you in the kitchen. Along with recipes, this cookbook contains reflective articles on topics such as using cooking as a spiritual path, rejoicing before you eat, and exploring the view from vegetarianism. We also discuss how to create vegan and gluten-free recipes with common substitutions. This cookbook brings together 94 of our favorite recipes from this redwood-cradled retreat center in Northern California. Rather than recipes functioning as rigid rules in the kitchen, we invite you to use these recipes as outlines for a kitchen practice full of heart. Whether you are a novice cook or an experienced chef, no matter your tradition, this cookbook is meant for you as a path into exploring your own motivation for cooking as a source of culinary creative potential.
