Reader Reviews:

What a fun new way to serve vegetables (1/1 people found this helpful)

I enjoy cooking and trying new things. It is simply hard to believe the wonderous recipes that are presented in this book. We have all heard about the importance of vegetables, and this book gives a new way to "be good to yourself" while enjoying something that tastes wonderful. These desserts taste "too good to be true."

Vegetables like you've never had them (but always wanted to) (1/1 people found this helpful)

The experts are constantly telling us that we need more vegetables in our diet, but when the time comes to tell us *how* to increase our vegetable intake, they always seem short on appealing ideas. No longer! These authors saw the problem and came up with a solution... or, rather, more than a hundred solutions: vegetable desserts! This is creative cooking at its best. The recipes range from the standard use of vegetables in desserts (like Rhubarb Crunch and Maple Sweet Potato Pie) to the downright unusual (like the Kraut Crisps or the beet-based Mystery Pie). The recipes are all fully analyzed for nutritiional content, and many of them are surprisingly healthy, like the Pumpkin Tofu Pie (which, believe it or not, is the best pumpkin pie I've ever had!). There is also a lot of information about cooking and vegetables in general. This book is great for parents, vegetable fans, and anyone else who has a sweet tooth but cares about what they eat.
