The purpose of my Chinese recipe book is more than just to show you how to cook the common vegetables. You are going to totally spice up your diet with my recipes!

Fresh & Fast Vegetarian: Recipes That Make a Meal
Fresh & Fast Vegetarian: Recipes That Make a Meal, like my earlier cookbook, Fresh & Fast, is a cookbook you will keep handy in your kitchen and cook from over and over again. I come to the vegetarian kitchen, not as a devout vegetarian, but as a person who loves food, loves to cook and loves big, bold imaginative flavors. As my repertoire of ingredients, seasonings and techniques grow I find myself cooking meat less and less often. Creating these recipes and writing this book was a complete joy from the first page to the last.
Grad students, cookbook authors and sisters, the Carles (Teens Cook Dessert, College Cooking) present another approachable but uneven collection aimed at peers who are going vegetarian. Emphasizing familiar favorites like cheese enchiladas bolstered with green chiles and corn, Asian lettuce wraps, falafel and pasta primavera, the dishes come together without fuss or the need for arcane ingredients, ensuring the book gets plenty of use. Time-saving steps, like employing already-made wontons for mushroom ravioli and puff pastry for cherry turnovers or tomato tarts will help budding cooks build confidence quickly.
