I have been a vegetarian for years, but I still find myself cooking the same 3-5 things repeatedly.  I know I need to broaden my recipe repertoire, but I seem to collect more traditional cookbooks that I use to make husband’s meals, and I neglect my own.

I recently received a new vegetarian cookbook that looks promising. “The Vegetarian Kitchen Table Cookbook: 275 Delicious Recipes” is a collection of simple recipes that anyone can enjoy.  They’re made from fresh whole food and they offer a fabulous variety of colors and flavors. The recipes are well written and the photos are stunning. There are several recipes I’m hoping to attempt shortly. They include an unusual sweet dessert made from caramelized nectarines scented with vanilla, raspberry puffs, and a red curry tofu with shitake mushrooms and bamboo shoots recipe.

You don’t have to be a vegetarian to benefit from a vegetarian lifestyle.  Eat meatless one more days a week – you’ll save money and your body will thank you!
