Book Description

A staple for any vegetarian kitchen — as well as for kitchens where meatless meals are welcome — this cookbook shows how to feed the soul as well as the body, by emphasizing that when cooking in a peaceful, loving frame of mind, the resulting food will nourish the emotions as well as the body. This is the first vegetarian cookbook to show how the consciousness of the cook directly impacts the food, and thus affects the bodies, minds and emotions of those who eat the meal.

Complete with rich color photographs and simple instructions, Food & Soul offers a wealth of culinary delights including: appetizers; soups; main dishes; sauces and chutneys; side dishes; desserts; cakes and decorations; breads, pastries and scones; drinks; and jams, cheeses and yogurts.

Also included is a brief, yet informative, overview of the benefits of a vegetarian diet, as well as a general explanation of elements necessary for optimum health including vitamins, minerals, fiber and antioxidants—good for anyone with diabetes, heart problems, and obesity, or anyone looking to enjoy better physical and mental health.

The cookbook is fully indexed and includes American measurements as well as metric conversions.
