Short Review: "Meatless All Day"



Taunton Press is well-known for beautiful, high-end books on a variety of topics, so I was pleased to get a copy of "Meatless All Day" to review. Not disappointed. Excellent design, lovely photos, and 80 interesting recipes, some inspired by Indian and other cuisines, with emphasis on how successful they are at substituting for various meats. There is even a list of ingredients that will add meat-like flavor and texture to a vegetarian dish.

My benchmark for a vegetarian cookbook, however, is how good a recipe it has for a veggie burger. This one has three, all excellent: Black Bean Burgers with Grilled Mango-Lime Mayonnaise, Mexican Pinto Bean Burgers with Fresh Guacamole and Corn Pico de Gallo, and Veggie Burgers with Brown Rice, Fresh Parsley, and Chickpeas. There are also a number of other recipes to create cutlet-like portions that could work in a bun.

Highly recommended.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for a review. The image above links to the book's Amazon page.
