First Book of Vegetarian Cooking : More Than 300 Recipes Combining Great Taste with Good Nutrition

Are you considering "going vegetarian?" Or, are you an experienced vegetarian looking for new ideas? Either way, this is the right book. You see, while the value of eating a meat-free diet is well-known, you need a road map to get the most from the vegetarian experience.
