Cunningham 5.0 out of 5 stars This is the kind of cookbook I like. The pictures make me want to go through and cook every recipe.
With a very detailed and informative introduction to vegetarian diet, it beautifully explains much you need to know about vegetables, fruits, dairy, grains, pasta and a brief introduction to proteins, fats, vitamins, minerals and carbohydrates and daily portions. Recipes are easy to follow, ingredients are readily accessible and the results are very rewarding. It almost feels like magic. All of this designed and presented artistically with beautiful and very colorful pictures. The best I've ever experienced.Every single meal was bland, bland, bland!. My family ate it, but told me that it was love for me that they did so. I will still encourage my family to become vegetarian, but I am now looking for a new cookbook with great pictures. The food doesn't have to be spicy, but I would like it to be flavorful. Any suggestions would be welcomed!I cooked a meal from it everyday over the holiday break and then continued that regimen when I returned to school. It has the best formating of any cookbook I have every owned. Every page is well illustrated, has calorie count, prep time and simple instructions. The biggest draw for me however, was that it contained a wide variety of dishes like soups, pizzas, non traditional salads, rice dishes, and desserts. I guess I can consider myself vegetarian now since that's what I eat, but honestly I just like the food. Please try again.Please try again.Please try again. Please try your request again later. Everyone knows they should eat more vegetables and grains, but that prospect can be intimidating with recipes that are often too complicated for everyday meals or lacking in fresh appeal or flavor. For the first time ever, the test kitchen has devoted its considerable resources to creating a vegetarian cookbook for the way we want to eat today.
The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook is a wide-ranging collection of boldly flavorful vegetarian recipes covering hearty vegetable mains, rice and grains, beans and soy as well as soups, appetizers, snacks, and salads. More than 300 recipes are fast (start to finish in 45 minutes or less), 500 are gluten-free, and 250 are vegan and are all highlighted with icons on the pages. The book contains stunning color photography throughout that shows the appeal of these veggie-packed dishes. In addition, almost 500 color photos illustrate vegetable prep and tricky techniques as well as key steps within recipes.

The book’s 11 recipe chapters also include:The result is a fresh approach to vegetarian cooking that offers inventive, kitchen-tested strategies to build bold flavor using simple techniques and a host of readily available ingredients.To build flavor, we caramelize onions and mushrooms before cooking the greens.A combination of cremini and dried porcini sauteed with butter, carrot, and onion lends complexity.We roasted fresh poblanos until charred and made a quick enchilada sauce with canned tomatillos (their quality is consistently good, not so with fresh tomatillos, which varied season to season).

Shannon Pyne 4.0 out of 5 stars I love the recipes and all the hints in this cookbook, definitely worth the effort.My new GO-TO cookbook. This is now in my Top 5 of all vegetarian cookbooks I own. Most of the recipes can be adapted for vegans (eggs are the toughest) and we have had so many great meals from this cookbook. I love the little blurbs throughout the cookbook explaining their logic and why they chose the techniques they did. I also find their cooking tips extremely helpful. Some recipes are ambitious and others not, but unlike most vegetarian cookbooks, it appears the authors have actually USED THEIR OWN RECIPES. This cookbook does not focus on photoshopped meals but rather focuses on the essential: making a delicious vegetarian meal. I cannot overstate how much I love this cookbook -- I will by relying on ATK for years to come. Kudos on the excellent job and keep 'em coming!This is perrrrfect. The blurbs are great. I'm a huge nerd and their systematic approach to cooking speaks to me. I make it a point to follow new recipes EXACTLY and I'm always happy with the outcome. I was also pleasantly surprised by how good the Indian-style curry recipes are.
So far I have made (and repeated): Roasted Poblano and Black Bean Enchiladas Millet Cakes with Spinach and Carrots Indian-style Saag Paneer Mee Goreng Cabbage Mushroom Potstickers Creamy Cheesy Millet Lentils, Rice and Crispy Onions (Mujaddara) Broccoli Salad with Cranberries and Almonds Roasted Broccoli Roasted Carrots Tofu Banh Mi Ultimate Veggie Burgers Black Bean Burgers Shakshuka All of them came out so well. Just leafing through again, there's so much more left to try. I've been craving Banh Xeo (Vietnamese Crepe) for weeks now and there's a recipe in there for that. If you are looking to expand your horizons, I highly recommend this. There's a good mix of basic, standard veggie preperations as well as more impressive, well-thoughout dishes. I also like the quick guide for locating FAST recipes. I will say that they recommend some fancy cookware at the beginning and it's a little intimidating but even with our basic, starter kitchen, we did just fine. I recommend this to anyone looking for a good cookbook, vegetarian or not.It's got to be at least as heavy as the many of the hardcovers. The binding isn't that great. Although I am super gentle with my cookbooks, I anticipate that this one will have a crack down the spine. Its layout is standard America's Test Kitchen style, with sidebars and boxes that highlight certain techniques and ingredients. I will confess that I love the long articles written by the recipe developers that are included in the annual ATK editions. The little blurbs at the beginning are disappointing to me. I am not a super chef, so I enjoy reading how the recipe was tested. Then I read through the whole recipe. For me, it is kind of like mental imagery that an athlete might do. So by the time I have gone through all that, I feel as if I'm prepared to cook the recipe. I don't enjoy this mini description as much.
--Many of the recipes sound too adventurous for me (Homemade Tofu, Israeli Couscous with Carmelized Fennel and Spinach, Black-Eyed Pea Salad with Peaches and Pecans). Some people may enjoy these kind of recipes, but I will probably never attempt them. They have taste-tested and honed the recipe to what they believe is the best it can be. I may not always think a recipe sounds great, but the ones that do sound great to me, usually turn out tasting great to me, too. --This cookbook includes plenty of helpful sidebars, which I always enjoy going through. UPDATE: So far I have tried: smashed potatoes, quinoa and vegetable stew, avocado toast with fried egg, curry-yogurt sauce with cilantro for steamed or roasted veggies, cranberry-orange overnight steel-cut oatmeal, and coconut-rice with bok choy and lime. They all turned out well, with the exception of the curry-yogurt sauce. However, I did use a brand of yogurt that I hate--I think it ruined the whole thing. Lesson learned. My family's favorite so far was the Coconut Rice with Bok Choy and Lime, which I served with chicken breast in Trader Joe's Thai Green Curry Simmer Sauce. I will update as I cook through the recipes further!As this is not the way my family eats I returned.Most ingredients are difficult for the average cook to find. I was very disappointed.It is quite nice how it explains everything and the combination of flavours. It is a really good book to learn from. I don't find myself going to the book much, perhaps because one in 4 recipes is photographed and it is all quite dense. I struggle to find something I want to make during the week because of the time involved in the others. It is heavily Americanised (duh, its in the title), but I found it too annoying converting the measurements.Some have worked and some haven't - not sure if it's the conversion from a US recipe book to a UK kitchen. I really love the explanations at the beginning of each recipe though, you can learn so much from these books.
Its just all recipes in one book. Tried and tested. And notes on why recipe works. Its hard enough to be a vegatarian. With just a nod in normal books. So to get this bible on vegatarian food is a marvel and the fact that it comes from the USA means there are recipes from every culture.As a serious cooking book collector who newer before succeeded in using a recipe I’m impressed.

The recipes and photos perfectly echo Kate's taste and aesthetic, while providing new and exciting dishes for the beginner and advanced cook alike. I can't wait to get in the kitchen and try everything.” —Dana Shultz, author of Minimalist Baker's Everyday Cooking “Kathryne's debut cookbook is packed with all the wholesomeness, approachability, and charm that fans of her blog, Cookie and Kate, have come to love. Featuring flavorful recipes made from simple, whole foods, a ton of helpful tips, and many heartwarming cameos from Taylor’s canine sidekick, Cookie, Love Real Food is sure to become an everyday staple in kitchens everywhere—mine included!” —Angela Liddon, founder of Oh She Glows “I’ve always loved Kathryne’s approach to cooking because of her focus on flavors and easy-to-master meals. Her cookbook is no different: it's filled with beautiful, approachable vegetarian recipes that the entire family will enjoy. This book will easily become a staple for everyday cooking!” —Erin Alderson, creator of Naturally Ella “I just love Kathryne’s approach to real food.
Simply put, this is the food that I want to eat every day. It’s a celebration of real, beautiful, and wholesome food. The book has a range of healthified favorites, like Easy Carrot Cake and Roasted Eggplant Lasagna, as well as recipes with super creative flavor combinations, like Chickpea Tikka Masala and Fresh Greek Nachos (yum!). No one is going hungry at this party—I think we can all raise our glasses of Strawberry Rose Sangria and (avocado) toast to glorious satisfying food.” —Jeanine Donofrio, creator of Love and Lemons Kathryne researches, develops, cooks, photographs, and writes every recipe on the blog. Originally from Oklahoma, she now lives in Kansas City.You can’t push snooze on Cookie—once she’s decided it’s breakfast time, she morphs into a squirmy, insistent, enthusiastic little alarm bell who will shove the pillow right out from under my head. She’s lucky she’s so cute. Every morning, Cookie herds me into our Kansas City kitchen. I feed her first (she wouldn’t have it any other way), and then I start shuffling around to make my own breakfast. I always eat breakfast, in part because I know I’ll feel lousy later in the day if I don’t, but also because I adore breakfast. Cookie and I both love food. I might reach for a bag of granola in the freezer, and some yogurt to go with it. I know exactly what’s in that granola because I made it myself: old-fashioned oats sweetened with maple syrup and made crispy with the help of some coconut oil, plus spices, nuts, and dried fruit. Learning to make my own granola was a revelation. It’s super easy and tastes so much better than the store-bought kind. Later in the day, lunch might consist of a giant, colorful bean salad (left over from last night’s dinner) with fresh greens and crumbled goat cheese. Dinner could be a spicy, vegetable-packed stir-fry. Whatever I throw together, you can bet it will be a well-balanced meal that lights up my taste buds and keeps me energized for hours.
I haven’t always eaten so well, and I haven’t always felt so good. I was a picky kid who tried to get away with eating pancakes with maple syrup for breakfast, but my body wouldn’t allow it, even when my parents would. Those pancakes would turn me into a shaky, miserable, sweaty mess. My doctor called my extreme reaction to simple carbohydrates hypoglycemia. Trust me, if eating pancakes for breakfast turned you into a mumbling zombie, you wouldn’t touch them no matter how good they tasted. The funny thing about metabolism is that I’m just an exaggerated example of how every human body functions in response to processed foods and unbalanced meals. I simply have a more immediate reaction to the foods that are contributing to our country’s growing obesity epidemic, and the chronic diseases that come with it. You might think, then, that eating well came easily for me. It didn’t. When I left for college, I thought that cardboard-flavored 100-calorie snack packs were healthy options, and that fat was best avoided. I tallied up calories in my head and repented for them on the elliptical machine. When I felt overwhelmed or sad, I turned to food for comfort, oftentimes to an unhealthy extreme. I struggled with binge eating, and I am all too familiar with the self-loathing and despair that go along with it. Basically, I asked far more of food than food could provide, and rode a miserable roller coaster of sugar highs and food-related guilt for years. My story is all too common, and I would do anything to spare you from these struggles. We all have to eat, after all. It doesn’t have to be so hard. Fortunately, my conscience is no longer at war with my taste buds. After a lot of selfreflection, I’ve learned to deal with stress and anxiety in ways that make me feel better, not worse—like reaching out to friends, going to a yoga class, and taking walks with Cookie. Perhaps most valuably, I’ve learned to listen to my appetite and eat accordingly.
Now, I open the refrigerator and greet the contents like trusted friends, and my body thanks me for it. Learning more about nutrition was tremendously helpful in shifting my habits and helping me cut through the marketing noise. Once I started reading, I was shocked to hear that the food pyramid wasn’t quite the pinnacle of nutrition I had once believed, and that protein comes in all different kinds of foods, not just meat. The more I read, the more I naturally gravitated toward the whole foods philosophy set forth by food writers and researchers like Michael Pollan and Marion Nestle. Their recommendations made sense to me on multiple levels. Of course I should be eating foods that my grandmothers would recognize, not artificially sweetened, processed foods with a “healthy” sticker on the front. The truth is always in the ingredients list.To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Garysgal888 5.0 out of 5 stars Looked good so I pre-ordered. I didn't stay long on the site but just waited for the book to arrive. Well it did and I've recently vowed to not write a review until I've tried recipes out of the books I'm purchasing. I'm trying to change that. First, I was blown away by the overall layout and awesome pictures for almost every recipe. Pictures are expensive, so kudos to Kathryne for producing a wonderful book full of what her recipes should look like. I try recipes most often based on pictures so I like lots of pictures. Some other stand outs: Nice intro on how she got interested in whole foods and their importance. And a great explanation of how to use the cookbook. Lastly, I appreciate that her ingredient lists use common, basic staples found in supermarkets across America. I haven't come across anything weird, however, if it's slightly unusual she explains where to find or how to substitute for it. Now for the first recipe - Southwestern Roasted Veggie Salad with Chipotle-Balsamic Dressing(pg 64).
For starters this recipe will take some time because of the roasted veggies - BUT IT'S WORTH THE TIME --- trust me. I picked a awesome first recipe to try!!!! I did not have red pepper or broccoli. I substituted onions and Brussels sprouts. Roasting took about 30-40 min. Salad: Make sure you roast the pepita (pumpkin seeds) and don't sub these. Also, I wouldn't sub the feta cheese. The combination of these with the dressing it what REALLY makes this salad. Dressing: OMG - this is so very good. Make sure you can get the chipotle in adobo sauce (buy many cans - she uses this in many recipes). It's smoky spicy subtle heat with the hint of sweetness from the maple syrup is perfection. Everything about this salad makes it all work to deliciousness. After I had it for lunch - I made another one to take for lunch. Will make again and again. Can't wait to try the next recipe. I couldn't wait to make this recipe so had it for breakfast instead of dessert. It's very simple to make IF you have a high powered blender i.e. vitamix. (Side Note: every kitchen should have two things - a great food processor and a high powered blender. Invest in these and you won't regret it) My bananas were frozen solid - hence the vitamix and super sweet. Therefore I only use three dates instead of the four called for. Don't forget to roast the pecans and add the scant salt - doing this will really enhance the flavor of the shake. Also, the portion size for this is perfect - about a cup for each serving. Just right for a dessert or in my case breakfast. Can't wait to try this with peanuts and peanut butter. Easiest Honey Whole Wheat Pizza Dough (pg 171): Okay - this is a first for me. I made my own pizza dough and it came together just as Kathryne said. She suggest white whole wheat flour - I used whole wheat flour. It was super easy because the food processor does all the work. I can see this being my go to dough and never buying store bought again.
Heirloom Tomato Pesto Pizza(pg 167): The pesto recipe for this pizza is delicious. I used fresh basil from my garden. It's easy to put together in the food processor. Once I had the dough rolled, assembling was fairly straight forward. I think the key to the success of the pizza was cooking it at 500 degrees. The crust was crisp and pizza was cooked through in about 11 min. With the other dough I made a pepperoni pizza for the hubby. Kathryne did just that with this recipe. Her love of pepitas and chipotle are evident again in this recipe and I loved it. This is a basic guacamole recipe with a twist of toasted pepitas (pumpkin seeds) and adobo sauce from the chipotle peppers. Butternut Squash Chipotle Chili (pg 83): Butternut squash is the star in this chili. The onions, bell pepper and black beans take a back seat but really add a nice mouth feel when you take a bite. However, the spices are what make this soup though. It doesn't make the soup sweet, it just really enhances the flavor all the spice from the adobo and chili powder. Did not make my own chips and of course added the avocado, cilantro and squeeze of lime. Another winner Kathryne. I used roasted pumpkin seeds instead of pistachios, feta instead of goat cheese, and dark raisins instead of golden.What really makes the recipe pop!!!. the spice on the carrots (cinnamon and chili powder), the raisins and the dressing!!! It all works together to really make a happy pleasure in your mouth. Since the carrots are the star of this recipe, make sure you buy really high quality organic. I had a pack that was tri-colored that many stores are selling these days. I just made the granola this morning and I absolutely love it. I made half by her suggestion and half with my own flair and twists (added coconut and cranberries). Had it on yogurt and right out of the pan. Came together quickly and does get crunchy as it cools.Sending some to a friend. Can't wait for book two!
I am looking for ways to add more veggies to my daily life, but I don't consume a lot of snacks, desserts, breakfasts or party drinks, and I don't want to be soaking cashews all the time, so this cookbook won't get much use. Prep time is not listed, so you have to read through the whole recipe to figure out how long it will take. The positives: there are a few recipes I would like to try, and the book is beautiful (lots of colorful photographs).Prior to being a blog fan of Cookie and Kate, meat was central to most of my meals and veggies were an after thought. Now, I am happy to report, she was a cornerstone of how I changed my eating habits and vegetables have become a main focus of my meals. Her recipes are thorough and she always provides alternate substitutions to accommodate different diets -- my son is allergic to tree nuts so this is especially helpful. And I know she's tested the alternate recipe -- it's not an afterthought because they work and taste delicious. Looking at her cookbook I see she has provided even more details, including how to make seasonal changes and I love that there's a picture for each recipe. You eat with your eyes first. You'll love this cookbook, visually and as a cook. But if you are still unsure about the book, check out her Healthy Apple Muffins or her Veggie Black Bean Enchiladas on her Cookie and Kate blog as test recipes. Those are favorites of my kiddos so I have no hesitation in recommending them. UPDATE: I've had this cookbook for almost a month now and I've made about 10 recipes from the book and I'm happy to report they have all been crowd pleasing meals. The instructions are incredibly easy to follow and includes advance steps, noting things like, you'll want to measure these ingredients before you begin because the recipe comes together fast. I also love how Kate tells you approximately how much of an ingredient to buy instead of just listing 1 cup. The helpful cooking techniques were also nice.
I felt a bit sheepish to learn my tomato based sauces were eating away at my newly seasoned cast iron pan. Doh! Photos are a few of the recipes I've made. All of them were delicious -- which is not the case for some cookbooks. This cookbook is not a one recipe and done cookbook. Don't you hate those. I am still making recipes from this cookbook so I feel it's really worth the price. Again, don't hesitate to get this cookbook. The recipes are really well developed, easy to follow, and most importantly, wonderful to eat!Let's just say that now this is my new favorite book and she really liked the pajamas that I got her.;-) I am not a vegetarian but I do eat a lot of dishes that are made with healthy and real foods, and try to only have one dish ( or none) that contains meat. I would recommend this book to everyone who loves eating tasty, nutritious food made with real ingredients. Well done:-)It is beautifully put together - clear, colourful photos throughout, ideas for variations on most recipes, sections for breakfasts, light lunches, soups etc. Recipes are vegetarian, and easy to convert to either vegan (in most cases) or (shock horror) the meat eater in your life. Tonight we are having Thai Style Mango Slaw which sounds and looks delicious, and is very easy to prepare. The only downside - and the reason for four stars instead of five - is that it uses American measurements, so you will either need to invest in some measuring cups, or go online to convert it (be aware that different things are also measured slightly differently, it isn't always a one cup fits all method). That aside, I think this is a really good recipe book.Living in the UK some of the ingredients need 'translating' but once you've learned the US names for some of the ingredients the recipes seem less intimidating. I have made loads of the recipes and they have all been delicious. I also rate her blog 'Cookie and Kate' if you want an idea of the kinds of food she makes.
