"Cooking is an act of independence" writes Judy Krizmanic as she welcomes teens to the world of vegetarian cooking. For new cooks, she offers advice and encouragement, along with hundreds of recipes. An icon for "Insanely Easy" draws attention to dishes that require few ingredients, little preparation, and minimal cooking time. A nutrient substitution chart offers suggestions for picky eaters who avoid certain foods.
