I'm quite impressed with it (especially at that price!). 'Laurel's Kitchen' has been a favorite for many, many years, as have 'Diet for a Small Planet' and 'Recipes for a Small Planet'. Lorna Sass's 'Great Vegetarian Cooking Under Pressure' is invaluable for anyone (vegetarian or otherwise) with a pressure cooker. I like the Moosewood cookbooks a whole lot, especially the later ones. I have a lot of cookbooks, maybe 75 or so. I enjoy reading them in the evenings.

Guest guest Posted February 6, 2003 Report Share Posted February 6, 2003 as long as we're on the subject I can't cook, i can barely make toast. Does anyone know any very simple cookbooks that don't require lots of ingredients? , " Feral <terebinthus> " <terebinthus> wrote: > , Pat Meadows <pat@m...> > wrote: > > On Thu, 06 Feb 2003 19:05:18 -0000, you wrote: > > > I recently bought (Half.com - used - $4.00) 'High-Flavor Low > > Fat Vegetarian Cooking' by Steven Raichlen.

Haven't tried any yet, but one or two of the cheeesecakes will probably be the first I try.... Yes, I'll share them. BTW, this is a wonderful time for anyone who wants to buy used books: the prices are ridiculously low. We're actually trying to *sell* used books, so it's not good for us as sellers, but it's sure good for buyers. If anyone's looking to buy any used books, here's a search engine that will search the web and find the cheapest ones for you: http://www.addall.com/used/ Half.com generally has the lowest prices. >> I have a lot of cookbooks, maybe 75 or so.

I consider cooking and reading about it to be a hobby (plus a necessity). It's actually useful as hobbies go.

OMG, this site is a keeper. Thanks so much. Now I am going shopping! > Well, it's a harmless enough weirdness, if so. I consider > cooking and reading about it to be a hobby (plus a > necessity). It's actually useful as hobbies go. Yes, I can take being called weird by my husband over reading cookbooks in bed. *lol* ~ PT ~ To be well informed, one must read quickly a great number of merely instructive books. To be cultivated, one must read slowly and with a lingering appreciation the comparatively few books that have been written by men who lived, thought, and felt with style. -Aldous Huxley, writer (1894-1963) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm always searching for light (in the sense of a reasonable amount of fat and a reasonable amount of calories) desserts that are nevertheless yummy. Did I post the Quadruple Chocolate Mousse Pie here? I don't think so. I made this last weekend, it was really WONDERFUL. I'll post it in a separate post, so it gets its own heading.
