I absolutely LOVED this cookbook. As a vegan, I am always looking for cookbooks that appeal both to other vegans and non-vegans alike. This is a beautiful cookbook with lots of great recipes. I love that all the recipes are fairly easy, despite the long list of ingredients.
The first recipe I made was "Mint Matlock Takes All His Clothes Off." I did have to substitute pecans for the caocoa nibs, since those could not be found at any of my local grocery stores. They were delicious cookies. They were like a mix between a Thin Mint and a brownie. They were a little rich for my taste, but I enjoyed them with a glass of almond milk.
The next recipe I plan on trying is the Spinach Pie. I am really looking forward to trying this for breakfast. Sobel suggests it as an appetizer, but I love having vegetables for breakfast. The recipe seems straightforward, with suggestions for advance preparation, alternative seasonings, and suggestions for reheating.
Overall, this cookbook is great. The one downside is that there is not a picture for every recipe, but it does not in any way harm this book. I look forward to spending a lot of time in the kitchen with family and friends making delicious food from Street Vegan. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
