Reviews of Cooking Vegetarian

"This is one of the best cookbooks I have read."
     Times Colonist, Victoria

"Both Melina and Forest are recognized as leaders in demystifying vegetarian cooking. Here they offer 150 healthy, delicious, easy recipes for vegetarian soups, salads, entrees, side dishes and desserts, plus menus suggestions."
     Associated Press and Vancouver Province

"For Cooking Vegetarian, Vesanto teamed up with the talented chef and food consultant, Joseph Forest. The recipes in this book aren’t just healthy – they show you how to make dishes you could order in the finest restaurants. And yet they’re remarkably simple.
    Vegetarian cooking lets you be kind to your heart, your pocketbook and the environment – all at the same time."
     Judy Toeuws, Registered Dietitian,
     Government of British Columbia

"Recently Melina teamed up with Vancouver chef Joseph Forest to prove that healthy food doesn’t have to taste bad. The result is Cooking Vegetarian (Macmillan), a collection of recipes that represents a happy marriage of science and art, food that is ‘healthy, delicious and easy’."
     Ottawa Citizen.

"Cooking Vegetarian is an excellent resource book, especially for young people embarking on a vegetarian lifestyle, as it helps them understand the components of the diet."
     The Gazette, Montreal

"The excellent new Cooking Vegetarian.."
     Toronto Sun

"No one will be asking "where’s the beef?" when savoring such culinary delights as Szechuan Vegetables over Buckwheat Noodles, Cashew Cheese Lasagna, Blueberry Mince Tarts and Figgy Pudding."
