It really isn't too hard to adapt recipes to make them vegetarian-friendly and of course, it depends on what level the person is a vegetarian or vegan. So anytime I was hosting a dinner, I needed to make sure that something on the menu would be suitable for them to eat. I'm back with another cookbook from the Abrams Dinner Party! I am a meat eater but do have a sister that is a vegetarian and my MIL used to be vegan. Which could be why this one seemed repetitive to me. My favorites, and most treasured and frequently used, are mainly Isa's cookbooks. I set the bar incredibly high on cookbooks. For me, I think I've just read one too many cookbooks. Showing you the basics and easy to get started. For someone new to vegan cooking, this is probably right up your alley. I just was not inspired by it or want to use this one frequently. So many seemed like repeats of ones in her other books or they had slight changes. Now, why is just OK for me.I didn't really find that many of the recipes are new. There are also photos of the food, which is a must for cookbooks. Very laid back, like she's chatting with you, holding nothing back. It's got a bunch of recipes, easy to follow, and it includes that style of writing that Isa has put into each of her books.

I debated on my rating.do I rate it higher because it's Isa after all? Or do I rate it how I truly felt? And I truly felt, it was just OK, hence the rating. I decided to check it out from my library. I love all her cookbooks and I own every one of them, except this one.
