PETA is People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals, and it has been one of the foremost organizations advocating compassion for animals. One of the cornerstones of their advocacy is the use of substitutes for meat, dairy products, eggs, honey and other foods derived from animals. This text shows how easy and delicious meals can be created without imposing on the other species of the planet.
There are some good recipes in here that I return to again and again. But there were also a number that were mediocre and a few that were huge disappointments.
I found that most of the recipes call for too many heavily processed ingredients. A lot of the recipes also seem fairly involved. I was hoping for something that would be a little more friendly to beginners (not that I'm a beginner when it comes to vegetarian and vegan cooking, but I do lead a busy life and don't want to be washing piles of dishes all the time).
I keep it around mostly for the golden noodle soup and a couple of the cookie recipes.
