Book Reviews of The Teen's Vegetarian Cookbook
Book Review: From pizza to pasta and everything in between
Summary: 5 Stars
The Teens Vegetarian Cookbook,arranged by Judy Krizmanic, includes commentaries from dozens of vegetarian and vegan teens on how they like to prepare their food and little tips like that applesauce tastes good with french toast, or what kinds of toppings taste good on a cheese-less pizza. There are even detailed instructions on how to cook spaghetti... for neophytes of the kitchen! I particularly like the section in the back on vegetarian survival in college as I will be heading off there myself in a couple years. There are handy lists and charts too, like how to mix and match to make a variety of pasta salads... or a sort of shopping list on the kinds of foods a vegetarian might want to stock their pantry with.
The Teens Vegetarian Cookbook applies not only to vegetarians, but to vegans as well. If there's a recipe that has some form of dairy product in it: cheese or milk, there is always an alternative listed. Crumbled tofu instead of feta cheese or soymilk instead or milk from cows. As far as recipes themselves, there are the classics, like pasta primavera, Mighty Minestrone soup, and traditional picnic potato salad, but there are also more CULTURAL selections such as Tabouli, Baba Ganouj, and mango salsa! Vegetarian cooking itself is a whole new world to explore, and this book can help you get a handel on it, in an easy-to-read, simple format.
It's a common misconception among the carnivores of our world that vegetarians eat only vegetables. That seems so silly when you think about it, but I've been asked dozens of times myself, questions like, "What on earth do you eat for dinner?" These kind of questions make me laugh inside because quite frankly, the folks who ask them have no idea what they're missing. Besides, we vegetarians still eat junk food once in a while just like the rest of the world! There's bread and pasta... I've even heard of vegan cookies (and tasted them too-- they're really good!) When I stopped relying on meat to be the center of the dinner plate, I ate my way into the delicious world that one can find outlined in a cookbook just like this one here, which I thouroughly enjoy cooking from.
