  Excellent Cookbook!  5
  
You don't have to be a Vegetarian to enjoy the elegant recipes.
I am a Vegetarian/Vegan over 25 years. (I don't eat seafood,
pork, lamb, chicken)
This is not a Vegan Cookbook, dairy products are included in
some recipes. I do not have the time to cook, as often as
I would like. I am not the best cook. My younger days, I
had two mishap in my oven forgot my dinner started a fire
and both times The Fire Department had to come put the fire
out. Fortunately, when I do cook; I have a timer I carry with
me. So, I won't forget something cooking on the stove or in
the oven. I have this habit of leaving my kitchen start working
in my office at home or plant flowers in the garden. The recipes
are very easy to follow. I've tried several recipes. I was
totally amazed my dinner turned out perfect. This book includes
many delicious recipes for soups, casseroles, pastas, breads,
desserts, vegetables, and breakfasts too. I haven't tried all of
them. There are so many delightful recipes.

Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone Non-Vegetarian too.
I believe, at some point in our lives we have the tendency
to eat heathier. An Excellent Cookbook to have on hand.
I highly recommend.

  Not for cooks who are short on time  3
  
I think this book offers a wide variety of interesting vegetarian options. The recipes that I have prepared have turned out well. (I have made a corn and lima bean cobbler and pasta with beans and pesto.)

However, this is not the book for anyone who works and feels the pressure of time mid-week. The recipes are really time consuming to make. (I am an experienced cook and I am familiar with the techniques referenced and I have the equipment.) For example, Ms. Madison does not allow for the use of canned beans but assumes that you will begin by soaking dried beans.

I also think that the instructions are sometimes less than clear. For example, she will tell you that canned tomatoes can be preferable to fresh. But, her instructions tell you to use 2 fresh tomatoes and she does not tell you how that equates to a canned tomato quantity.

  Easy Vegetarian for Cooks and Non cooks alike  5
  
Whether you try one of her quick and easy sandwiches, a salad, or one of her more elaborate dishes, the recipes are simple to follow, tasty and attractive on the plate. Bon Appetit!

  Terrific  5
  
I've been hunting for a good vegetarian cookbook for some time and Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone is it! In addition to terrific recipes, this is also a how-to cookbook. As a former caterer and chef, I do know quite a bit about cooking and found that I still learned and I agreed with her on those things I already knew. Good techniques.

I'm glad the book is hardcover, because I tend to be rough on cookbooks and this will hold up. One suggestion that I do in all my cookbooks is to comment on a recipe after I make it. After all, it's not easy to remember not only if we made something, but if we liked it.

There are already a lot of **** and "delicious" written beside the recipes.

I already cook with a nice variety of vegetables, but this year decided to try any and all vegetables. Madison is my first stop for suggestions on different and interesting ways to cook the veggies. Have been very satisfied with results.

One caveat--she uses more salt than I like, so be careful.

  For non-vegetarians too!  5
  
I am not a total vegetarian. I do lots of exercise and have a high stress job and need a little more protien to feel good. However, during certain times, such as spring, I feel like eating only vegeatarian for a couple days at a time and this is a handy book to have on hand since my husband barely notices he's not eating meat! lol!
