(More customer reviews)I have a VAST collection of vegetarian cookbooks. Recent changes in my lifestyle and schedule mandated that I learn to cook faster meals, so I ordered several books promising fast meals.This one delivers. While some of the recipes take a bit longer than 15 mintues, few take more than 30, and much of that time is cooking time, not preparation. Most of the ingredients are common, and a few, such as tahini and miso are less common, but not rare.15 Minute Gourmet: Vegetarian is divided into food groups such as soups, sauces, entrees, desserts, and appetizers.She includes some "basics" on nutrition and good health, as well as suggestions for balancing a healthy vegetarian diet.There are several complete menu suggetions and many recipes include a suggestion for a recipe that would make a good companion.There are even good ideas for setting up an organized kitchen to save MORE time. These are not Standard Amercian Diet foods made faster.These are very nutritious recipes with some ethnic diversity. Quite impressive for a collection that all can be assembled in moments, and many are even low in fat. For those who are curious, some recipes include...quick tomato sauces, pesto, orange-tahini sauce, cheesy vegetable spread, peanut dip, asian stew, quick pea soup, moroccan chickpea soup, fresh croutons, strawberry and blueberry soups, peach vinaigrette (and many others), thai cucumber salad, pasta with herbed ricotta and pine nuts, sweet and sour tofu, vegetable curry, nut burgers, vanilla poached pears, and chocolate dipped pineapple with raspberry sauce.In addition to all of these wonderful features, the layout is simple to read, directions are numbered and divided by steps (less confusing) and there are quite a number of full-page color photographs of the recipes.I highly recommend this book to those who are afraid that "quick" vegetarian food also has to mean "bland".Paulette, I commend you.
