This is a book for "bloodless diet", i.e. vegetarian cooking. It is rather extensive in size, it has the following sections:BREADS, ROLLS,EGGSSOUPSENTREESVEGETABLESSALADSFRUIT DESSERTSDESSERTS. PUDDINGSICE CREAMS AND WATERCAKESCANDIESPICKLES, SAUCES, Etc.SWEET SAUCES.SAVORY SAUCESSANDWICHESSUNDRIESMISCELLANEOUS RECIPESThe section on baked goods is very nice. I tried the recipe for Coffee Bread and it came out quite well. Section on eggs is rather extensive, one of the omelet recipes was different from the ones I ever made an I tried, i was delicious!  An egg section followed by a Soup section.  The soups sounded fairly simple to make, simple yet tasty. I have not tried any, but plan to.  Entrees varied from vegetables to a large variety of potato-based dishes.  Salads were interesting, I was intrigued by tomato jelly and plan to try it out.  All fruit recipes sounded terrific! Scalloped apples are on my to-do list.  Fruit section is followed by desert section.  Again, simple food, wholesome ingredients, they sounded really good!The book ends with miscellaneous recipes for non-edible things such as lotions and soaps.Overall, simple wholesome comfort food! What's not to like?  I recommend.Ali Julia review
