Excess of Soy!
Too many of the recipes call for soy or soybean products. Soy can have a sludging effect on one's body and disrupt the digestive process by weighing one down. Try one of Burton's other books instead, like "Eat Drink, & Be Vegan." ED&BV contains delicious eats without over-utilizing this maligned bean.
Never Fails
Dreena Burton is a genius. I have every one of her cookbooks, and have never had a poor or even mediocre result using any of her recipes. The recipes are so easy and are delicious enough that I would recommend this book to non-vegans as well. In fact everything I have made out of Dreena's books for my omni friends has gotten rave reviews. Could not recommend it highly enough.
Keep Doing What You Do, Dreena!
Once again Dreena brings it on with this collections of varied, delicious and easy to make vegan recipes along with some personal stories which make the experience of reading and learning from this cookbook even more personal. I made the Super Stuffed Mushrooms last last for New Year's Eve and they were quite the hit! I wish I had made more. Other faves from this collection include Ginger Hoisin Rice Noodles, Sweet and Sour "Neat Balls," Creamy Potato Leek Bake and for dessert Coconut Raspberry Squares. Unfortunately a soy allergy leaves me unable to use tofu or soy milk so I will have to get creative in finding substitutes in order to really enjoy the panoply of ideas and creations Dreena has offered. Thanks!
