 Great cookbook, most recipes are vegan! December 10, 2008
This is a great cookbook. I recently checked this book out of my local library and the soup and stew recipes are great...especially for this time of year. I was impressed by the fact that most of the recipes are vegan or could easily be adapted. I highly recommend this book.

I actually bought this book because my dr said I needed to go on a low-cholesterol diet and the low-cholesterol cookbooks weren't going to help me with the transition because I found those recipes bland, bland, bland. So, I started checking out the vegetarian cookbooks. I wound up with 6 cookbooks between the 2 subject matters. Every single recipe in the One-Dish Vegetarian cookbook has been absolutely delicious even to a mid-western raised "where's the beef" type person. Some of the recipes sound strange (for example, Spaghetti with carmelized onions) but don't let that keep you from trying it. This was actually one of my favorites. Only one word of caution...the portions are very large. I started splitting the recipies in half and my husband and I still had enough leftover for my lunch the next day. I did NOT half the seasonings though. I do have one tiny complaint--the "one-dish" name is misleading. You will have a little dishwashing to do....

This book has a few good recipes. It's worth buying if you are vegetarian.
Misleading Title March 26, 2007

The recipes are delicious and nutritious, but require way more than one dish to prepare. In fact, I had a whole load of dishes on my hands after making Spinach-Lentil Pasta. It was worth it, but I thought this book would have simpler recipes. Also, the writer openly admits to not being a vegetarian herself, so if you want basic, staple recipes for a vegetarian diet, get a different book. However, it is a nice addition to a veggie library.
Nothing I could use February 16, 2007

I bought this book based on the good reviews, but unfortunately I did not see any recipes that I found all that appealing, and many of them called for ingredients that would be hard for me to find. To be fair, I live in a pretty rural area where lots of things are hard to find without having to drive 50 miles. I returned the book.
