The best vegan cookbooks ever

   These books have ended a quest that has gone on my entire vegan life; the search for a good cookbook!
This is what I define as a good cookbook:

-one that I'll want to use for everyday cooking
-one that doesn't require thousands of different ingredients for each recipe
-one that doesn't use stupid fake cheeses and meats  in recipes
-one that is fundamentally healthy! (makes a point of using whole grains and avoiding saturated fats etc)

For me, these are the only vegan cookbooks I've ever seen (and I own a number and have spent a lot of time at book stalls at vegan fayres) that fulfil these points. I'd recommend them to everyone, not just vegans. The food we've made so far has been so filling, nutritious and delicious. The layout and wording of the recipes is very clear and easy to follow and although they are American books they still have all the measurements in metric as well as imperial form. 

Simple yet amazing books. (Thanks to Oxfam again)


Healing Foods Cookbook by Jane Sen (ISBN 0007108168)
More Healing Foods by Jane Sen (ISBN 0007118341)

This might not look very interesting but it's actually a really great recipe; "Ginger brown rice with lentils" from the second book (More Healing Foods).
