The Greens Cookbook - the ultimate vegetarian cookbook

Vegetarian Cookbooks are few and far between - at least good ones are. I was given a copy of this book last Christmas and it has become a firm favourite in my kitchen. I believe that even the most hardened meat lover needs to take a break from flesh from time (for the credit crunch if for no other reason) and if you have such a person in your life, this book will charm them.

 

If on the other hand your have a more balanced diet or are purely a vegetarian then this book will engage and re-ignite your love of cooking. It is too easy to slip into the rut of cooking the same things day in day out and this book will help you out of tat and make you fall in love again.

My personal favourite recipe of the book is the ‘Black Bean Enchiladas’ (page 189 hardback edition).
