Summary

Simply Satisfying is the cookbook for anyone who loves sophisticated food and hopes to forgo meat either permanently or just on occasion. Pioneering vegetarian cookbook author Jeanne Lemlin, who has been vegetarian since she was 15, comes back to her very first book- Vegetarian Pleasures: A Menu Cookbook, originally published by Judith Jones at Knopf in 1986-to create this completely new edition. Lemlin's recipes are for busy cooks who want delicious food from readily available ingredients and no-fuss prep methods. Fresh vegetables, fruits, grains, and beans are the key components of these recipes, and they are transformed into meatless fare that appeals to vegetarians as well as dedicated carnivores. Baked Macaroni and Cheese with Cauliflower and Jalapeños, Fragrant Vegetable Stew with Corn Dumplings, and Raspberry Almond Torte are just a few examples of Lemlin's tantalizing recipes. And she guides cooks through everyday and special-occasion cooking by offering menu suggestions, helping new vegetarians avoid the "plateful of sides" dilemma and giving seasoned cooks new ideas for entertaining.
