Can anyone recommend a good Vegetarian book?
I'm looking to become a vegeterian but I want to make sure I get all the nutrients as I get quite weak if I don't eat protein.
Thank you
PS> I'm looking for something with pictures.

Thank you for that information, I'll have more spinach & broccoli. Also I've heard almonds are really high in protein.
Do you know which vegetables are high in calcium?

This is really a cook book, but the Vegetarian Society has really good recipes (with pictures) on their website. They have all kinds of suggestions for set menus, seasonal things and even stuff for kids. And of course lots of useful information on nutrition and stuff. Every recipe i have used from them has been great. I particularly like their vegi sausages from the kids section.
some of the old linda mcartney ones are brill..i got them!!and sue elliott does some good recipes`!!!loadsa pics...x
The green one!
All the cookery books in the Australian Woman's Weekly series are excellent. Also 500 greatest-ever Vegetarian Recipes edited by valerie ferguson from the Book People (who deliver to workplaces and are really cheap) is great and has loads of illustrations.
The Joy of Cooking Vegetarian
Excellent book with big color photos.
This website has information on nutrtion and recipes with pictures. I hope you find it useful: http://www.recipesforvegans.co.uk...
You must check out "Vegan with A Vengence" by Isa Chandra Moskowitz and "The Farm Vegetarian Cookbook". They are my bibles and make vegetarian cooking quick, easy and delicious.
Favorite Vegetarian Dishes, I am a vegetarian and it shoes you pictures, the amount of protein, fat,calories, etc. I got it for 13 dollars at Books-A-Million
Any Moosewood cookbook... New Classics is great!
Mooswood is a veg. restaurant in Ithaca, NY. The cookbooks are widely available, I checked them out @ my library.
Also, The Enchanted Broccoli Forest... a veg classic!
The links below have good ideas. especially the bottom one.
by the way rice+beans =complete protein. (learned that in health class years ago) nuts also good source. I even think that they said in that health class that peanut butter AND jelly = complete protein too! believe it or not
Two other old classics are Recipes for a Small Planet by Ellen Buchman Ewald and Madhur Jaffrey's World of the East Vegetarian Cooking.
KK, if you decide to go vegetarian, you stilll need to include a little meat in your diet. Meat is necessary for complete protein.
if you can get hold of it definitely look at the World Food Cafe cookbook - it's a restaurant in London, but it's completely veggie and everything in it is absolutely fabulous! I've yet to find anything in it i don't like!!
Linda's Kitchen by Linda McCartney and all her other books too.
There's more protein in broccoli, spinach and kale than in meat. Your body cannot use cooked animal protein, only plant protein anyway. You should check out raw vegan diet/lifesyle which is the only way to provide your body with what it needs. 85% of the nutrients in cooked food are destroyed by cooking. All raw vegan foods contain protein.
If u want a real good book then go for Tarla Dalal's Vegetarian Delights. It's really good n there r pics 2.
Rose Elliot is the best book I ever bought in 30 years, also ruth Brown and Cranks recipe books. There are so many these day to choose from.
