Magic Beans: 150 Delicious Recipes Featuring Nature's Low-Fat Nutrient-Rich, Disease-Fighting Powerhouse
by Patti Bazel Geil / Paperback - 208 pages
List Price: $12.95 ~ Your Price: $10.36 ~ Used Price: $8.57
Reviewer: A reader from Greenville, SC - The recipes are quick and easy, as well as delicious. I took the Crockpot Vegetable Chili to a party last night and it got rave reviews. Haven't gotten the nerve to try the Blueberry Bean Muffins yet, but they're next on my list!
Reviewer: A reader from Dallas, TX - I checked out this book from the library and tried some of the recipes in it. After having had great results with all of them, I knew I had to buy this book. I recently decided to ease into a vegetarian lifestyle and this book has made the transition a lot easier.
Reviewer: A reader from Florida - My husband and I love this book. It has great low-fat recipes that are not too difficult to make, nor take too long to prepare. Probably the best bean book we've tried.
Reviewer: A reader - Chef Dave says: This book is a very interesting read! For instance, did you know that the prominent families of ancient Rome were all named after beans! The recipes are listed next to nutrition guidelines which are easy to read and good to know. There is a reference guide in the back, and I wish they would have included some references for buying gourmet beans. The recipes themselves are simple to follow and don't require much juggling of pans .

Easy Beans : Fast and Delicious Bean, Pea, and Lentil Recipes
by Trish Ross, Jacqueline Trafford / List Price: $10.95 ~ Your Price: $10.95
"Easy Beans...", now in its sixth printing, has over 100 fast, healthy and delicious bean, pea and lentil recipes. This book is for cooks who don't have time to soak themselves, let alone a bean.
Summer is coming and Easy Beans Super Summer Salad recipes will be great to take on picnics, have with a barbecue or served for lunch with some great bread.
Reviewer: A reader from San Francisco, CA USA - I have a bookcase full of cookbooks, BUT, "Easy Beans" and "More Easy Beans" are two of my top favorites. All the recipes I have tried are delicious, and best of all for a busy professional, quick and easy to make when I come home tired at the end of the day. As an MD interested in nutrition, I can heartily recommend the recipes in these books for the good of your heart. Well done, authors!
Reviewer: Kim Gillis (see more about me) from Toronto, Ontario, Canada - This wonderful book took all the mystery out of cooking with all types of beans, peas and lentils. The recipes are versatile, nutritious and extremely simple to prepare. The authors' blurb at the beginning of each recipe is informative and quite often humourous. The Leek & Lentil Soup has now become a weekly favourite of both my family and co-workers!! And as a final added bonus, the binding lies flat on the counter for easy reading while cooking. What more could a busy chef ask for?!
Reviewer: L Stevens from Vancouver BC Canada - As a fairly recently converted Vegetarian, I was THRILLED to discover "Easy Beans" and then, Joy!!, "MORE Easy Beans". These 2 have become my most-used ever Cook books. I have wowed friends and family with various soups, dips, casseroles, chilis, etc. etc. etc. Thank-you so much. More More Beans, please.

Reviewer: A reader from NY United States - I'm a vegetarian, not macrobiotic, but I love this book. This is the one I turn to when I don't want to cook something too complicated, but I want somthing healthy and delicious. The soup recipes are some of my favorites from any book.

List Price: $24.99 / Your Price: $17.49 / You Save: $7.50 (30%)
In addition to a wide range of more than 250 mouth-watering recipes, Very Vegetarian includes a helpful introduction about eating vegan and 16 pages of beautiful four-color photographs. The book will help the person who is beginning to choose meatless meals by providing nutritional information and recipes featuring familiar foods and techniques. For those who have more experience with a plant-based diet, the book offers recipes that will broaden their culinary horizons. "Too many vegan recipes have relied on exotic and difficult-to-find ingredients or tedious, time-consuming techniques," says Jannequin Bennett, executive chef of a restaurant in a AAA Five Diamond, Mobile Five Star hotel. "But Very Vegetarian has recipes made with common foodstuffs that are uncommonly delicious."
From Publishers Weekly:
"Very Vegetarian" covers the basics of veganism and advises how to begin, what to stock in a vegan kitchen and how to guarantee sufficient nutrition. From snacks and sauces to main courses and desserts, delicious and satisfying concoctions such as Caponata, Arugula and Mushrooms with Pine Nuts, Sun-Dried Tomato and Lentil Burgers, Carl Lewis's Savory Black-Eyed Peas and Chocolate Raspberry Torte will assure happy healthy practitioners.

This book is well organized and pleasing to read. The encyclopedia section is very informative as to ease of care, suitability for containers, recommended varieties, etc. There is also a good section on pruning and training of trees, which is the scariest part of growing fruit, in my opinion! A very good primer for the beginner! -- This text refers to the Hardcover edition.
