125 Best Vegan Recipes
From Maxine Chuck: "My co-author, Beth Gurney, and I wrote this book with families in mind. We wanted to create a vegan cookbook using ingredients that are easy to find in any supermarket, with recipes that are easy to cook (all but one take under 1 hour to prepare) and with foods that will appeal to kids as well as adults. We tried, in many instances, to adapt old favorites that we grew up with (Spaghetti and Soyballs, Sloppy Joes, American Chopped Soy, Shephard's Pie) as well as many other recipes that reflect more international flavors such as Curried Vegetables with Tofu, Caribbean Rice and Beans, Mexican Casserole. We also have a chapter "For the Kids" in which there are recipes that not only appeal to kids, but that you can make with your kids, such as Make-Your-Own Tacos and Cheeseless Pizza."

Oh good, more resources for a plant-based diet. Have you checked out "The Now and Zen Epicure" by Miyoko Nishimoto Schinner?
I was looking for some good vegan books as I want to go more in to veggie and vagan eating. Thanks for the tips.
Hi!
I am not a veggie yet but maybe will do them in the future. Just make sure you're also looking for organic food if you wanna do veggie, right?
see you around.
Great to see so many Vegan books being published and even more wonderful is to see how many are sold these days against just a few years ago when reprints were rare.
I'd recommend the Vegonomicon.
It's like a vegan joy of cooking.
Good stuff.
