by Tony Bishop-Weston, Yvonne Bishop-Weston

A diet free from all animal products (including milk, eggs, and honey) can be both nutritionally complete and completely delicious. Whether you practice veganism for the benefit of animals and the environment or simply because you're allergic or lactose-intolerant, these more than 90 beautifully illustrated, healthy, and satisfying dishes allow you to enjoy luscious chocolate croissants and high-protein smoothies, as well as appetizing breads, cakes, noodles, and other foods usually made with milk or eggs. Starting with a summary of the vegan philosophy and explaining how a proper vegan diet offers all the nutrients your body needs, this cookbook is the perfect introduction for newcomers to veganism and a source of mouthwatering ideas for long-established vegans.

OK, I'm downgrading this cookbook to three stars and listing it on paperbackswap.com after realizing that I never have any of the ingredients it calls for. While it's true that the toasted granola recipe has become a staple in our house (hence the previous four-star rating), I'm not sure I'd even know where to find avocado oil or yeast extract. Besides, many recipes call for lots of faux meat (vegan prawns, vegetarian ham) -- and I could just use Betty Crocker if that's how I wanted to cook.

Nice pictures of some of the recipes. Desserts looked great: low sugar and full of nutrition. Recipes used a little too much SOY for my liking, though.
