 The Best of the Moosewoods! January 6, 2009
This is by far, the best of all the great Moosewood Cookbooks!
I have many, but I always find myself returning to this one.
The simple, yet delicious suggestions and variations for lasagnas and parmigianas, vegetable strudels, and stuffed vegetables can't be beat!
You'll find recipes in this book to please any vegetarian; from soups, salads and entrees to a wide range of spreads, sauces and desserts.
I have even found that I can adapt many of the vegetarian recipes to serve my vegan family members and friends.
I have the early 1977 version and I still continue to give and share the revised additions to the sincere delight of friends. Whenever I need a dish that promises to be special and good, I always return to this book! You just can't go wrong with the original Moosewood Cookbook!!

I've owned this cookbook for 15 years, and the pages are stained from my attempts to make the recipes. I believe in the tenants of this book. I enjoy these recipes on a regular basis: the pesto, the hummus, the gazpacho, the calzone, the lentil soup and minestrone. This book is the answer to the fast food, instant gratification world we live in. It just slows everything down with quality recipes and fresh ingredients.
Find it, buy it, try it July 30, 2008
Yummy, substantial vegetarian dishes. Easy-to-follow instructions. Big, clear writing. No exotic ingredients you can't find in a month of searching.

Unlike a lot of vegetarian books and tracts, which drown in a kind of eat-your-spinach wholesomness, Mollie Katzen's New Moosewood Cookbook has a diverse cross-section of cuisines and tasty, uncomplicated recipes that a novice cook with a day job can savvy with a minimum of effort. Even a schlub like me, who previously considered browning the ground beef to be the height of culinary accomplishment, was able to dive in and produce rich, flavorful vegetarian food on the first effort. Suddenly I'm whipping out eggplant parmesian, cauliflower curry, pita bread, and lard-free refried beans between grading papers and keeping house.
This book is not vegan; many recipes include eggs and dairy products. And it fudges a little on vegetarianism. One recipe calls for anchovies, a nod, I guess, to pescavegetarians (the vegetarians who seem to think that fish are a plant product). But you don't have to make the recipes you don't agree with. I find these problems to be quibbles against the book's stylish layout, helpful menu arrangements, and steps so simple that I don't have to be a full-time housewife to make a full, nutritious dinner for my family.
Even if you're not a vegetarian, this is a good book if you're interested in healthy, tasty meals that can feed a family. And if you're curious about vegetarianism and want to see if it's right for you, this is the book to get you started learning how to cook in that way. I don't often say this, but this is one of the few books that I can recommend unreservedly for virtually everybody, because it has something everybody needs and can use.
