The Complete Vegetarian Cookbook

A Fresh Guide to Eating Well with 700 Foolproof Recipes

The 700+ recipes in this comprehensive collection show you inventive and uncomplicated techniques for making boldly flavored main dishes, appetizers, soups and stews, pasta, pizzas, and more. Discover vegetarian makeovers of classic comfort food like Mushroom Bolognese (a combination of cremini and dried porcini mushrooms, soy sauce, and tomato paste replicate the meaty complexity of traditional Bolognese) and creative recipes like Sweet Potato and Swiss Chard Gratin (earthy Swiss chard sautéed with shallot, garlic, and butter is the perfect foil for the sweet spuds).

Whether you’re a committed vegetarian or simply want to eat more vegetables and grains, this collection of re-imagined, meatless comfort food and all-new recipes inspired by global cuisines will help you cook and eat well. Of the 709 total recipes, 300 are fast (start to finish in 45 minutes or less), 500 are gluten-free, and 250 are vegan.

We include cooking charts and resource materials such as All About pages for key ingredients (like hearty greens and fresh and dried chilis), Core Recipe Pages with simple but important recipes for staples like eggs and rice, easy-to-spot icons for gluten-free and vegan recipes, and hundreds of full- color recipe photos and step-by-step photos.
