(Our Favorite Vegetarian Cookbooks) http://www.makingthishome.com/2009/06/10/whats-for-dinner-favorite-cookbooks/ creating a simple, handmade home Sat, 11 Feb 2012 00:00:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.4 By: Jen http://www.makingthishome.com/2009/06/10/whats-for-dinner-favorite-cookbooks/comment-page-1/#comment-4760 Jen Fri, 12 Jun 2009 14:24:19 +0000 http://www.makingthishome.com/?p=3504#comment-4760 My absolute favorite is Laurel's Kitchen. Very simple cooking with whole foods. It's vegetarian and old (well-loved) that I bought 20 years ago before I was married with kids. My favorite new cookbook is "The Art of Simple Food" by Alice Waters. It's got clear explanations and is based on local, seasonal food. These days I will buy meat from the farmer's market and we will eat it about once a week. I started this after reading "Animal, Vegetable, Miracle" by Barbara Kingsolver. I also like the Moosewood series of cookbooks and others by Mollie Katzen. Good topic! My absolute favorite is Laurel’s Kitchen. Very simple cooking with whole foods.

It's a kids cookbook but has really tasty, fast, healthy vegetarian recipes even for us omnivores. We like “Honest Pretzels” from Molly Katzen who wrote Moosewood.

Wow! We've been playing catch up with all of your news - see you're in the states - and looks like you are having lots of fun adventures this summer! We were laughing as we were reading of your organizational process.....this is something we need to tackle with all of our might! These cookbooks look delish! We aren't vegetarians, however we do love a good non-meat meal a couple of times a week - yum! Thanks for the advice on the best ones! Hey Katie! glad to hear from you! Wow!

I love that Bittman book. LOVE! And the first cookbook I got was the Moosewood one -- from my brother who went to school in Ithaca. I'm also a big fan of their Simple Suppers book. Quick Vegetarian Pleasures is another good one. So many cookbooks, so little time (to cook. ;-) We are SO on the same page (literally!). I love that Bittman book. LOVE!
