Every recipe a gem 5 out of 5 stars.

This is my favorite cookbook, even though I also own Mollie Katzen's excellent Moosewood and EBF cookbooks. I'm a vegetarian, so I do lament that only 41 of Dojny's 75 recipes are vegetarian. But every recipe I've used is a gem. Its advantages over Moosewood include: 1) Katzen is woefully short on bean recipes. As a vegetarian, I can eat far more nutritiously and cheaply with beans at the center of my diet. 2) Dojny's recipe's are reliably tasty. Katzen does have some mediocre ones. 3) Mmm, mmm, I can't believe how good it all tastes!
Every recipe is good! 5 out of 5 stars.

This may seem like an unlikely book to get excited about, but this is my very favorite cookbook (and I own a lot as my Amazon account can confirm). In the winter, I make soups and stews. I got this book for Christmas and I have made almost every recipe. The book includes outstanding versions of the classics (New England Baked Beans) and international dishes that I made as experiments and are now favorites (Indian Spice Rice with Peas). There is also a time consuming, but user friendly Cassoulet, which I have made twice for parties, but I've never had any left over.
Editorial Review:
The co-author of the popular Parties and Cheap Eats now offers a delightful, delicious, and healthy cookbook for legume lovers.
