A must for a Savory Kitchen
This book is a must for a savory kitchen. My staff uses the recipes out of this book constantly. A nessasary part of a professional kitchen mise en place. I had to buy a second copy because the first one is worn out.

What a cute book!
I had this book on hold at the library for a few months, and I just picked it up yesterday. It was totally worth the wait! I haven't yet made any of the cupcakes, but I am really looking forward to trying them. I love this book so much that it's going on my amazon.com wishlist right now!

Great, Quick Low Carb
I purchased this book at COSTCO for very cheap. I've been on the lowcarb lifestyle off and on. The recipes are 15 minutes start to finish and taste great. I am considered a very good cook by friends and family and have been impressed with the wide range of flavors. Other reviews of "very hard to find ingredients" is just not true. This has become our go-to recipe book for the week when we ...

MAKE YOUR VEGETABLES SING!
I've been using this cookbook at least 2-4x/week to create healthy and flavorful meals for my whole family, my 11-year old loves these recipes, too, without missing the meat. Also, this book has tons of creative side dishes to create from veggies expanding our menu to include old favorites like Deli Mac Salad and Prospect Park Potato Salad to dressing up home fries with "cheezy Sauce". I love the ...

This Is Your Next favorite Cookbook!
We have already made several recipes from this great cookbook in the couple of weeks that we've owned it. My eleven year old daughter is trying to lay claim to it (no chance! It's mine!!). Whether you are an aspiring vegan or veteran, you will love this cookbook. Vegan baking is the bomb and this is the best tomb of knowledge out there on this subject to date. I also recommend Veganomicon as a ...

Great!!!
Ever since I bought my wife this book and the ice cream attachment for the Kitchen Aid mixer, my life has gotten much better. Most of my favorite Ben and Jerry's ice creams are in here and they taste almost exactly like the real thing! If you own an ice cream maker, this is definitely part of the required reading!

Easy, yummy, must-have!
I cannot get enough of these cupcakes! I just made the simple chocolate cupcakes with the rich chocolate mousse topping last night. I jazzed them up with a little layer of homemade raspberry jam. There are not only plenty of unique and delicious (not to mention easy) recipes, they almost all have variations to try out. The ingredients are easy to keep on hand, the variety has something for ...

Every recipe a winner!
Okay, perhaps I exaggerate just a bit, but I have made about eight of the cookie recipes and every one of them has been a hit. The Chewy Chocolate Ginger Cookies are the best cookies ever. Sometimes the recipes are more work than anticipated for a simple task like making cookies, but the results are always worth the extra step involved.

Tasty, easy recipes for the non-chef
I am not a particularly good cook - I won't starve but I won't win any culinary awards. This book is perfect for someone like. It has very easy, creative recipes that aren't necessarily gourmet, but get the job done.

Great well rounded book
I decided to purchase this cookbook after buying a new ice cream machine. After reading the reviews I thought to give it a try. This is a great source for everything related to making your own frozen desserts. The additional sections on toppings etc. was a great bonus. KC

Great recipes!
I first checked this book out of the library, but it contained so many recipes that my family enjoyed that I decided to buy it! The granola recipe is absolutely fantastic! It (and the desserts) contain more sweetener than I normally use, but I adjust to my preference. A must have if you're vegan and gf; definitely worth it even if you're not! :)

Great Recipes!!
This book has a lot of great tasting recipes. My family and I prepared a couple of recipes so far, and it's great because it doesn't feel like you're on a diet. In addition, the great tasting food provides a great meal for others who don't know that they're getting a low calorie meal. I love the varied selection from breakfast, lunch, dinner, and dessert. The only drawback is that all the meals ...

Amazing book
I love this book. As someone who hasn't been baking too long, this has helped me a lot. I normally don't get too hung up on pictures in cookbooks. Yes, they're nice if they're there, but I can live without them. In this case, they are extremely helpful because there are so many different desserts in this book that I had never even heard of before! Luckily every single recipe in this book has a ...

Excellent
Many cookbooks contain interesting recipes... but my favorite cookbooks also count as a good read. This one is a new favorite -- my mother was GRITS (Girl Raised In The South), so many of the foods are familiar to me, and I am happy to have more recipes. And I spent a happy afternoon reading, which is always a big plus for me. Great addition to my collection.

Excellent!
While I am not a vegan, I do dabble in vegan/vegetarian cooking. So far this cookbook has blown me away! The ingredients are focused on healthy fats and sugars and, of course, the emphasis on whole grains and organic veggies, which is really key for me. The Supercharge Me! cookies are mouth watering! They passed the "kid test" at home and with 2.5 grams of fiber per cookie, no proccessed ...

I'm head over heels!
In Baking with Agave Nectar Ania Catalano presents over 100 recipes for using this intense sweetener, many of which are designed to be healthy in other ways, too. These recipes use whole grains, for example---pie crusts often involve oat flour, barley flour, whole wheat pastry flour, etc. Fruit substitutes for butter in some recipes, providing moisture and structure to cupcakes and the like. ...
