Summary: Good Resource 2008-08-29
Comment: This book is filled with delicious recipes for Vegans. It was very helpful when I decided to go Vegan and was short on recipes to make my favorite foods.

Summary: Not for people who enjoy real food. 2008-08-15
Comment: This book is too "radically vegan" for my taste. And speaking of "taste", nothing in this book has any. What the heck is "vegan bacon", anyway? Why bother? I guess it's easy to be a skinny bitch if you never eat anything that tastes good. It would explain the "skinny" and also the "bitch"...
Now I understand. Thanks, but I'd rather not be either.

Summary: Another fad diet book, with an extra helping of hate and anger! 2008-08-15
Comment: This book is full of non-facts, psudeo-science and outright lies. It's is just another fad diet book, where just like any other of these bad advice books- you can lose a few pounds then gain it all back.
It has a hidden vegan agenda- nothing wrong with being vegan mind you, but why not be honest about it?
Advices goes from the "of course, heard it a thousand times" to completely wacky.
Most of the recipes are about as nutritionally balanced and tasty as eating the book itself.
And, to top it off there's a undercurrent and subtext of hateful anger in this series of books.

Summary: Might want to find an alternative 2008-08-11
Comment: The first book that was written was very informational and started me on a kick to truly look at ingredients and find out what is in my food. This book however is not necessarily realistic in adding these recipes to your diet. A lot of the recipes call for coconut oil and have fake cheeses and meat that you could use. Soy is a big ingredient in a lot of the fake foods. Research done on soy shows that too much consumption can have a negative effect on your diet, especially if you have hypothyrodism or other ailments. There is research that goes both ways but too much of a good thing isn't always good. I guess you need to do research what you eat and find if it truly is good for you. I don't condone it, I just don't eat a lot of it. I do have this book and haven't really made much out of it. I am not in to eating fake food and would rather eat and buy things that are natural... so if you like that route too... I don't recommend it. If you are in to fake foods and coconut oil... go for it.

Summary: Finally a cookbook of normal food for vegans! 2008-08-10
Comment: Does lasagna, potatoes au gratin, or a brownie sound good? I thought so!
This cookbook has includes a wide range of foods that are fantastic every-day choices. Another plus is that most of the ingredients are repetitive so you can stock your pantry and have some pretty versitile menu options.
Below are the sections:
Breakfasts
PMS Snacks
Appetizers
Soups & Stews
Salads
Sandwiches
International
Italian
Down Home Cookin'
Staple Meals
Dressings, Sauces & Substitutes
Happy Endings (Desserts)
A particularly helpful part of this book is the glossary which defines/describes most of the foods/ingredients that would not be commonly known.
This book has less raunchy language than the other Skinny Bitch book and I think they got it right with this one.
Highly recommend!
