I received this from a friend for my birthday after going from vegetarian to vegan. This book has so many good ideas for cooking which allow you to revolutionize your thoughts around vegan food. I actually bought a copy for a family member after telling them about so many of the dishes in the book. The verbiage can be a little crass but if my 65 year old mother thinks it's funny most people will.

Ok lets face it if you want a good veg cookbook this works. At first seeing the F word in a cookbook was a funny gimmick. But it gets old realty fast and it seemed like the author was just trying to force the F bomb into every page and it comes off real mechanical. The recipes are good and this is coming from a meat eater. Maybe the author should stick with cooking and leave the F word out of the mix for F*ck sakes.

I have a number of whole foods, vegan or vegetarian cookbooks, but this one is my favorite. If you can observe the cussing as humorous and not be "Oh my goodness" shocked, the information is really, really well done. Basic information about what certain foods are and how to prepare them in delicious ways without crazy gadgets or bizarre ingredients is helpful for whole foods beginners or accomplished cooks. How to properly and easily cook grains that you might not be familiar with is a big plus in this edition. Simple information like "the why" you should rinse quinoa before cooking was very welcome to me. I really love this book and at 64 years old, I have to admit that I get a chuckle when a friend sees the title and raises an eyebrow. :D
The recipes are great!!! Although, being older and not using bad language, which doesn't seem bad anymore, unless you are teaching a young child not to repeat it, I would have appreciated it if it hadn't been used, but I am one and the recipes are really good! I bought it just the same and recommend it for the recipes.

Great book written with a great sense of humor (and lots of profanity, so if you're a sensitive pearl-clutching type, this is not the book for you). I have been wanting to start cooking more vegetarian meals and this book has a lot of great recipes. My friend made the chickpea tacos recipe — normally I don't like the texture of chickpeas — and it turned me into a chickpea fan! It also inspired me to get my own copy of the book. The recipes are easy to follow and there are gorgeous pictures so that you know what it should look like when you're done. Highly recommend!

My daughter loved the book. She's a vegetarian, so it was a perfect for her. I bought a copy for myself and was a bit disappointed it didn't have any meat recipes.

This book has a lot of helpful tips and ideas for how to stock your kitchen in a healthier manner. It doesn't include meat, but the idea is incorporating more of what is likely lacking in your diet; other sources of protein. Also, it's hilarious.

Fun vegan cookbook for those who like a bit of raw, entertaining language. Not for the faint at heart or easily offended.

If you are a new vegan and have a saucy sailor side, this cookbook is for you. It lets you know what you should have stocked in your pantry and than it takes you down a road of deliciously easy recipes.
