JournalNow.com: Veggin' Out

Contrary to a popular stereotype, vegetarians are not all champions of self-denial, pathetically munching a sprout on the sidelines while watching the omnivores have all the culinary fun. Instead, the vegetarians we know love good food and know where to get it. They aren't about to settle for a bland meal, either at home or at a restaurant.

Appetite for Reduction

If you’re like me, your New Year’s resolution invariably involves a desire to lose a few pounds. I recently discovered what I hope will be a great resource to help me: Isa Chandra Moskowitz’ new vegan cookbook, Appetite for Reduction. So far, I’ve had time to make only one recipe out of it, the Vegetable Korma (very tasty), but I look forward to making more. The Cranberry Cashew Biryani is calling my name.

You can get a few sample recipes at the author’s Web site here. (That link also led me, after clicking a recipe, to her Ginger Chocolate Chunk Scone recipe, which I can’t wait to try out! Probably won’t help me reduce, but they sound so yummy.)

I really appreciate the nutritional info that’s included with each recipe. The only drawback to the cookbook is that I wished it contained some low-fat breakfast or dessert recipes.
