Big Book of Juices and Smoothies or Students Go Vegan Cookbook

Big Book of Juices and Smoothies: 365 Natural Blends for Health and Vitality Every Day (The Big Book Series)

Author: Natalie Savona

Juice bars are all the rage, but making the drinks at home is an easy — and less expensive — way to sustain a smoothie habit. The Big Book of Juices and Smoothies features 365 healthy, delicious recipes, many of which can be prepared with nothing more than a blender. Each drink is rated for its energy/immune boosting properties, detoxifying qualities, and skin enhancing abilities, while an at-a-glance nutrient profile lists vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients. Juice plans, such as a "detox weekend" or an "immune-boosting week" round out the book.

In this practical, encouraging volume, Raymond demonstrates the ease, as well as the pleasures, of a diet free of animal-derived foods. The author of Student's Vegetarian Cookbook offers helpful suggestions about stocking the vegan pantry with whole grains, dairy-free milks, fresh fruits and vegetables, and meat substitutes such as tofu, seitan and tempeh and notes that the staples of a vegan diet are low-fat, cholesterol-free and rich in fiber and nutrients. Recipes include dips, wraps, soups, pastas and desserts from a variety of cuisines. Crunchy Blueberry Pancakes are light and sweet, with a satisfying cornmeal crunch; Basic Baked Tofu, with its gingery, garlicky marinade, is anything but basic. Other winning dishes include the rich, almost meaty Shallot and Mushroom Gravy, the refreshing Millet Salad with Curry-Ginger Dressing, the fragrant Indonesian Tempeh Stew and the savory Caramelized Onion, Walnut and Sage Pizza. The recipes are homey, simple and quick: with no-rise Rustic Olive Rolls, for example, fresh bread is ready in less than half an hour. For anyone interested in good and good for you vegan meals, Raymond's book should be required reading. (Aug.) Copyright 2006 Reed Business Information.
