This cookbook is hit or miss. I tried four recipes with varied results --

Hot and Sour Noodles: Yum! Basic ingredients combine to make a delicious sauce for veggies and noodles. We added cabbage (delish) and chickpeas (not as great) to convert this to a main dish. Everyone enjoyed it.

Southern Fried Tofu: This recipe is a keeper! The seasonings are great and of course we love anything fried. Kiddo raced through her veggies and bulgur so that she could have the last ...more

i have used this book for many many years and it's always good in a pinch to spark a new recipe - the messy mikes is a quick and delish meal - i like to chop up mushrooms and add it to my own version.

great gift for any vegetarian or vegan friend.

a good, all-purpose vegan cookbook- the recipes are neither too simple nor too fancy. the 'cook's notes' tips are quite helpful.

A fun cookbook supplemented with animal rescue stories and suggestions for incorporating the principles of animal rights into one's everyday speech, and thus, thinking.

The recipes don't include pictures, sadly, though there are black-and-white photos of Farm Sanctuary's animals.

My only real complaint is the emphasis on substitutions rather than plant- and grain-based foods for their own sake. A common issue in vegetarian cooking. Nevertheless, a worthy addition to a...more

I love pictures in my cookbooks so Vegan Vittles loses points for that but it has some great staple recipes in it that I find myself using over and over like buttermilk biscuits and homemade seitan. Most stuff in this book is pretty basic so it is easy to play around with and Stepaniak provides a few variations at the end of almost every one.

I made Hungarian Mushroom soup today, because I had a alot of mushrooms and an onion. I have a cold and this was a good choice because it's a little spicy. I also ate pomegranate seeds for desert and this went surprisingly well after the soup.
