Guest guest Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Thanks for a neat question - I look forward to reading others' favorites! Jean My three favorites: Eat for Health by Dr. Joel Fuhrman Joy of Vegan Baking by Colleen Patrick-Goudreau Family Favorites by me! Every time I make a " keeper " recipe, I print it out, insert it into a sheet protector, and add it to my three ring binders. That way I don't have to remember which cookbook it's from. I have a binder for each category, like Main Dishes, Salads & Dressings, Soups, Desserts, Breakfast, etc. One year I also had my top favorite ones printed and bound to give to the extended family at Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 6, 2009 Report Share Posted August 6, 2009 Hi Mikki, Oh, my favorites are usually my newest ones. :-) But, the ones with the most bookmarks, the ones I use the most lately are: 1. From Asparagus to Zucchini: A Guide to Cooking Farm-Fresh Seasonal Produce, by the Madison Area Community Supported Agriculture Coalition - meant to help CSA members know how to use their boxes of organic veggies 2. Vegetarian Suppers from Deborah Madison's Kitchen, by Deborah Madison 3. Vegetarian Times Complete Cookbook, by the Eds of Vegetarian Times And I often use basic/mainstream cookbooks for templates - like a Betty Crocker book my mom got me before I moved out on my own. I use it to find out what is the basic sauce for this dish or the basic ingredients for that kind of bread - and then fix it up to be vegetarian or vegan or low-carb or low-sugar or non-allergenic or whatever I need for a particular gathering. I'm much more like an experimenter than I am a recipe follower - so nothing I do is exactly by the recipe (other than canning, which I've learned is a science for a reason - I mean, I didn't kill anyone with botulism or anything, but when I learned about this science stuff, I had to pour out many jars of organic sauce and ratatouille just to be safe, so learned by that sadness). :-) So, that is to say that nothing is by the recipe, so all cookbooks are new to me if I just replace ingredients, add more of this, less of that - it's a whole new thing the next time around. :-) Happy cooking!

Guest guest Posted August 7, 2009 Report Share Posted August 7, 2009 My 3 go to books Veganomicon Fresh from teh vegetarian slow cooker Vegan with a vengence I also have this tiny Vegetarian cookbook I picked up at a Michaels I think and it's got several things in it that I really like. This is the book my son just flipped through the other day and begged and pleaded for me to make the Olive, Bell Pepper and Cherry Tomato Pasta. Once we had everything, he helped me make it and he also LOVED it.

Guest guest Posted August 13, 2009 Report Share Posted August 13, 2009 Know I am late chiming in here but since these weren't mentioned I thought I'd write in: The American Vegetarian Cookbook from the Fit for Life Kitchen by Marilyn Diamond - - like a " bible " totally vegan with great general info The Dolmas are to die for Tofu Cookery by Louise Hagler - everything I have ever made from this is a hit. Great substitute for making filling for stuffed shells, manacotti, etc. and Peanut Butter Pie (alas, I avoid eating soy so don't use it much these days!) Very Vegetarian by Jannequinn Bennett - - make the Good Morning Muffins ALL the time OK, so I can't stop at just three . . . I also love The Candle Cafe's Cookbook and my kids would want me to vote for Vegan Cupcakes by Isa Chandra Moskowitz & Terry Hope Romero __________ Turn life into a beach with a new sandbox.
