I bought this book because a couple of months back my youngest daughter decided she wanted to go vegetarian. But to really complicate matters she's never eaten an especially wide variety of vegetables nor has she ever seemed that keen on vegetables... go figure! None of the rest of the family are vegetarians, so it's been a bit of a challenge. I was really hoping this book would give me some ideas on dishes I could prepare quickly and easily (as I'm also making a meat based dish for the rest of the family) that my daughter would like.And I wasn't disappointed! Not only have I got some new recipes my daughter will eat enthusiastically, but we've actually started eating some of these dishes as meals for the whole family. (Now that's something I never thought I'd be saying!!) I love the Curry City - like the author's husband I didn't grow up eating curries and can't cope if they're too hot but this is delicious.Probably like most kids, my daughter loves pizza, and there are some nice pizza recipes here that she really enjoys. One of the dishes we've discovered we all like is Sundried Tomato and Zucchini Alfredo - really good.I'm delighted I bought this book. Not only has it helped with my daughter's transition to vegetarianism but it's also given us some new dishes that the whole family enjoys, even the staunch carnivores!
