What an awesome find! As you may know, daughter is a Vegetarian and both of us are allergic to dairy. So, this book seemed like an answer to our "What's for Dinner" dilemma that we face most nights of the week.
The recipes in this book are tasty and easy to follow. Many vegetarian meals call for extensive chopping and slicing and dicing. Not this one! Minimal chopping and slicing and dicing are involved, and the meals are more than filling. The directions are clear, concise, and easy to follow
While we've tried several of the bowls for both breakfast and dinner, my favorite so far has been the Mushroom Wild Rice Slow Cooker stew. Oh my stars! Filled with the rich earthy taste of mushrooms, this bowl was a wonder of tastes that filled us up and kept us going for hours. I have to admit - I cheated on the mushrooms. I bought a pound of assorted sliced mushrooms from Wegmans. I then diced them down before adding them to the stew. I also neglected to put the ingredients in the slow cooker before I left for work. So, I came home and tossed everything in a big pot. One hour, start to finish. It was amazing! I already have plans to make it again. It's in the permanent dinner rotation.
I don't have permission to post any of her recipes directly, but I can link you over to her wonderful blog, the Vegan Yack Attack! Great name! Head on over to her site, and take a look. Not only does she have the most beautiful food pictures I've ever seen, she has posted some recipes. I now have her top recipe for today - Roasted Carrots and Creamy Quinoa on my list of meals for the week. It looks so good!
If you are looking for a healthy change of pace to your normal meals, I highly recommend this book!
(I see Christmas presents for the kids!)
