Publisher’s Note
From the founding chef of the legendary Greens restaurant in San Francisco comes a comprehensive, beautifully illustrated, and innovative vegetarian cookbook. Featuring more than 800 recipes for everything from appetizers to desserts, “Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone” also includes an A-to-Z vegetable section with details on vegetables from the common to the exotic. 200 line drawings. 24 color photos.
What Julia Child is to French cooking and Marcella Hazan is to Italian cooking, Deborah Madison is to contemporary vegetarian cooking. At Greens restaurant in San Francisco, where she was the founding chef, and in her two acclaimed vegetarian cookbooks, Madison elevated vegetarian cooking to new heights of sophistication, introducing many people to the joy of cooking without meat, whether occasionally or for a lifetime. But after her many years as a teacher and writer, she realized that there was no comprehensive primer for vegetarian cooking, no single book that taught vegetarians basic cooking techniques, how to combine ingredients, and how to present vegetarian dishes with style. Now, in a landmark cookbook that has been six years in the making, Madison teaches readers how to build flavor into vegetable dishes, how to develop vegetable stocks, and how to choose, care for, and cook the many vegetables available to cooks today.Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone is the most comprehensive vegetarian cookbook ever published. The 1,400 recipes, which range from appetizers to desserts, are colorful and imaginative as well as familiar and comforting. Madison introduces readers to innovative main course salads; warm and cold soups; vegetable braises and cobblers; golden-crusted gratins; Italian favorites like pasta, polenta, pizza, and risotto; savory tarts and galettes; grilled sandwiches and quesadillas; and creative dishes using grains and heirloom beans. At the heart of the book is the A-to-Z vegetable chapter, which describes the unique personalities of readily available vegetables, the sauces and seasonings that best complement them, and the simplest ways to prepare them. “Becoming a Cook” teaches cooking basics, from holding a knife to planning a menu, and “Foundations of Flavor” discusses how to use sauces, herbs, spices, oils, and vinegars to add flavor and character to meatless dishes. In each chapter, the recipes range from those suitable for everyday dining to dishes for special occasions. And through it all, Madison presents a philosophy of cooking that is both practical and inspiring.Despite its focus on meatless cooking, Vegetarian Cooking for Everyone is not just for vegetarians: Its for everyone interested in learning how to cook vegetables creatively, healthfully, and passionately. The recipes are remarkably straightforward, using easy-to-find ingredients in inspiring combinations. Some are simple, others more complex, but all are written with an eye toward the seasonality of produce. And Madison’s joyful and free-spirited approach to cooking will send you into the kitchen with confidence and enthusiasm. Whether you are a kitchen novice or an experienced cook, this wonderful cookbook has something for everyone.
Industry reviews
“Deborah Madison’s new book…is an epic, containing 1,400 recipes and weighing 4 1/2 pounds. Beneath the endless stream of recipes lies an unwritten tale of vegetarian cooking in America….To truly appreciate Ms. Madison’s varied and accurate recipes, you need to read her lengthy introduction, which touches on eating organically, cooking basics and matching wine with vegetarian meals. She approaches vegetarian cooking with warmth, not rigidity. And her food shows it.”
New York Times – Amanda Hesser (12/31/1997)
The China Study gives critical, life-saving nutritional information for every health-seeker in America. But, it is much more; Dr. Campbells exposé of the research and medical establishment makes this book a fascinating read and one that could change the future for all of us. Every health care provider and researcher in the world must read it.

Whether you are a diabetic looking to cut down on your sugar intake, an active person looking to upgrade the health benefits of your daily menu, or someone concerned with not contributing to the abuse of animal rights, the vegan lifestyle comes with a multitude of benefits.
Often, the vegan lifestyle is paired with a diet primarily comprised of raw foods, which takes the vegan benefits much further. The problem with the conventional diet is that by cooking our food it loses much of its health benefits, such as the vitamins, minerals and enzymes. Those are essential to our body in order to eliminate harmful toxins.
The best part about the vegan diet is that you no longer have to worry about calorie restrictions or low carbohydrate intake. What you eat naturally is low in unhealthy/processed carbohydrates. This takes the hassle out of dieting. Instead of a quick-fix regimen for weight loss, going vegan allows you to lose weight the healthy way, by upgrading to a healthier lifestyle.

— I love fruits and vegetables…so I feel more like a fruit and vegetable teacher, than a raw food teacher!
— The Truth is in between the words. On your spiritual journey, you will soon wake up to realize that you do not know ANYTHING. Or, you may already be aware of this right now.
— Fruits, vegetables and herbs are for so many different types of people: they are for athletes, they are for people who want to lose weight, they are for people who like to meditate, they are for those who need to heal up chronic and degenerative diseases… basically, they are for everyone!
— The *life force* inside of you is what shines, and is what is most attractive in others. Fruits and vegetables simply allow you to exude this life force energy more easily and freely than dead, cooked and/or processed foods. You literally are what you eat!
— Do the work now! Plant the seeds, read the spiritual books, apply the teachings of the nutrition, practice meditation, kindness, forgiveness & patience… and most importantly, practice stopping the ego from reacting and wasting your precious energy! If you are unable to stop the ego, at the very least just observe it doing what it does with awareness…but do not judge! Just be aware. Awareness is always the first step…

Apple cider vinegar is made by crushing apples and squeezing out the liquid. It is cheap, easy to use and it really benefits our health in numerous ways.
Health
Two daily tablets of vinegar tablets is all the vinegar you need to add a healthy supply to your daily diet. It also might help prevent other serious health problems, such as heart disease, that often go hand-in-hand with diabetes. As long as you use it carefully and for recognized, healthy purposes, apple cider vinegar benefits will continue to reveal themselves.
Body
Apple Cider Vinegar (ACV) is an effective natural bacteria-fighting agent that contains many vital minerals and trace elements such as potassium, calcium, magnesium, phosphorous, chlorine, sodium, sulfur, copper, iron, silicon and fluorine that are vital for a healthy body. Perhaps it is most useful as an acidifier of the intestinal tract and the entire body. It has been known to drastically reduce the toxicity in the body. It has all the integrity of the apple but in a form that is more easily assimilated by the body. Not only does apple cider vinegar help to alkalize the body, but it is very rich in potassium.
Diet
Apple cider vinegar speeds up metabolism especially when taken regularly before meals and if used in conjunction with a sensible diet and exercise program it can be a powerful aid in keeping your weight under control. It has been shown that vinegar taken in liquid form before a meal, helps dieters eat less. Many also claim vinegar helps the body absorb this essential mineral from other foods in the diet. It’s cleansing qualities make it helpful for the dieter who would like to see faster results.
Apple Cider Vinegar is believed to help in conditions like, nasal congestion, chest congestion, sore throat, stiff joints, headaches, cataract, depression and more other. It is proving to be one of the greatest aids to health known to science, and it’s an entirely natural substance, produced by powerful natural enzymes. Apple cider vinegar is also effective at lowering cholesterol, and can improve circulation while reducing high blood pressure.

Counting Calories Doesn't Work.
You won't lose weight long term using most diets either.
Restricting calories is the worst thing that you can do if you want to burn fat.

You may lose weight at first but then hit a plateau and ultimately gain it all back and more.
Plus you'll make it harderer to lose the weight next time.
Find out how to lose the weight for good.
