In line with the prevalent attitude of the society today in which healthy lifestyle is the "in" thing, having this recipe book is very useful.This book is not just for vegetarians, this is also for those who eat not just the greens and all other colors which give the vitamins and minerals our body needs. This book gives us a new take on veggies especially if one wants a variety on their plates with the easy recipes the book offers.I am not a vegetarian and I don't have plans of being one in the near future but I do employ a healthy diet in my gastronomic palate.  If you look at the food pyramid, veggies are in the bottom and have the biggest percentage in what a person should have in his/her daily intake.  While other food groups have each of their own level of percentage with their own nutritional value, veggies are very important as they have the biggest share in the percentage.The recipes I got from this book are all tasty and delicious, far from the popular belief that greens are bland and most of the times tasteless.  I suppose the writer wants his readers to see vegetarianism in a different light and the food vegetarians eat are not tedious and uninteresting.  He wants to reiterate that eating vegetables can be enjoyable aside from the fact that they are also nutritious.  Plus the Vegan Recipes included in this book do have a twist!This is also a fun read for me and the cooking procedures are actually pretty easy to follow.  The writer presented the recipes and procedures in a way that it is as if he is a friend conversing to another friend.I just hope that the writer presents more recipes as I am interested in knowing more.I would definitely recommend this to my friends.  I would even give this book as a gift to my friends who have the inclination to live healthy just like I do.
