Non-MLIS related: My absolute favorite vegetarian cookbook (at the moment)
Saturday, November 29th, 2008
I am a sucker for really cool-looking cookbooks (you know, the ones with a to-die-for morsel on the cover). If they have really pretty pictures inside next to the recipes, I usually buy them. (Unfortunately, this also means I have several cookbooks — covered in dust — piled away on my kitchen shelves).
Anyway, I found a cookbook that truly, truly is my absolute favorite at the moment, and I wanted to share it with anyone else out there who loves vegetarian food, doesn’t have time to cook, and wants to eat healthy, low-fat stuff… oh wow, this cookbook is for you. IloveitIloveitIloveit!
This particular book doesn’t have pretty pictures inside, but the outside cover appealed to me (of course). I actually checked this book in during one of my shifts at the CPL, and before letting it go from book return pile-to lazer-beeper-thingy-to be put back on the shelf, I opened it up, looked out the yummy recipes and checked it out for myself.
(On a side note, having the ability to check something in to check it back out for yourself – if there isn’t a hold on it for someone else, of course – is one of the wonderful things about volunteering in the Circulation department).
I took the book home, tried out several of the recipes – ohmygoodnesslovedthem - and then bought my own copy. I have been cooking meals from it since.
Therefore, if anyone is looking for something new and veggie-fabulous, I suggest giving this book a try. It is so good!
