One of my favorites
I loved her other books I will admit, but what I love about this book is the AMOUNT and variety of recipes. It is almost an impossible task to write vegan recipes that don't require strange hard to get ingredients. I don't know how many vegan cookbooks that I simply gave up on because I don't want to run around New York city to look for some bizarre type of seaweed or root for one dish. Although Isa does include some odd ones, many recipes can be made with easy to find ingredients and are easy to make. My personal favorite would have to be the Vegan Moussaka, or the Leek and Bean Casserole. I have already tweaked some the the seasoning and ingredients but it is easy to do, as Isa also explains at length the properties of everything from Tempeh to Panko. A must have if you are a vegetarian or vegan, a great book!

You also get a bonus: a whole support network!
I don't want to repeat what so many other already said: it is an awesome cookbook!
<br />
<br />What I would like to add is that whoever purchases this or any other cookbooks by these authors gets an amazing support network at their forum at www.theppk.com. If you would like how to see pictures of all of the recipes, hear feedback from other vegans about a number of recipes, or just talk about whatever comes to your mind, the forum is there for you.

The Autumn Latke's alone are worth the price of the book!
We sampled a few recipes and then stumbled upon the beet (or "autumn") latkes. They are amazing. We have them at least once a week. We need to explore some of the other recipes but this one's a winner. We also like the simple focus of the book - that is, being vegan simply means eating natural food. The authors are also right to re-educate readers on how to cook vegetables. They are easy to prepare and delicious when done right.
