Vegetarian with a Vengeance is a cookbook for the 21st century. So much has changed since the first vegetarian cookbooks started appearing about 40 hears ago. Not only is there a much wider range of appealing ingredients to choose from today but also recipes, cooking and tastes have all been completely revolutionized. Perhaps the biggest change is the starting point that vegetarian food should above all taste good. And so in this creative collection there are recipes for tapas, wraps, salads, sauces, salsas, hot dishes using rice, quinoa, noodles and potatoes, bean stews, curries, soups, sandwiches and packed lunches, breads, porridge and mueslis and puddings. This is quite simply a fantastic book with stunning photographs which will appeal to all--vegetarians as well as meat-eaters--whether they be children or adults.
