Title: Heathy and accessible vegetarian recipes
Review: The Love & Lemons cookbook is well-designed and easy to use, with easy to prepare recipes for vegans, vegetarians, gluten-free, and anyone generally interested in eating delicious produce. It is organized by fruits & vegetables, with tips on general ways to prepare the produce at the beginning of each section.Since Amazon didn't include a visible index to this cookbook, here are the included recipes (in order):Apple, Brie & Thyme CrostiniCardamom Apple CrispApple Fennel SaladChipotle Apple GuacamoleApple Radish SlawLemon Roasted ArtichokesArtichoke Crostini with Mint PestoFlatbread with White Bean Puree & Asparagus RibbonsMillet Pilaf with Herbs & Grilled AsparagusAsparagus Edamame Salad with TarragonAvocado Breakfast TacosAvocado Strawberry CapreseAvocado & Fava Bean SaladDark Chocolate Avocado MousseStrawberry Salad with Toasted HazelnutsBlackberry Basil BruschettaPB&J with Hazelnut Butter & Strawberry Chia JamBlueberry Mango & Mint Ice CreamRaspberry Lemon Dutch BabyLemon Broccoli & Caper CouscousCreamy Broccoli SoupSweet Chili Charred BroccoliniBroccoli Rabe & Sunchoke OrecchietteCoconut Rice with Brussels SproutsCreamy Miso Brussels Sprout FettucineBrussels Sprout Breakfast TostadasShredded Brussels Sprout & Cranberry SaladBrussels Sprout Wraps with Almond SauceQuinoa Salad Radicchio CupsAsian Chopped Cabbage SaladEndive with Sweet Pea Avocado HummusBalsamic Grilled Radicchio SaladChickpea Salad Sandwich with Crunchy Red CabbageVegan Carrot WafflesCarrot Gazpacho with LemongrassCarrot Ribbon TacosCarrot-Ginger Grain BowlCarrot & Tomato TagliatelleRoasted Cauliflower Tacos with Chipotle CreamRoasted Cauliflower & Red Pepper SoupCurried Cauliflower Fried RiceRoasted Cauliflower & Pear PizzaGrapefruit, Quinoa, & Fennel Salad with MintMinty French 75 (the only cocktail)Veggie CevicheBeet & Carrot Salad with Sweet Citrus VinaigretteCorn, Tomato, & Mozzarella SaladGrilled Mexican Corn SaladElotes & Roasted Chickpea TacosSpicy CornbreadGreen GazpachoCucumber Basil & Watermelon SaladCold Sesame Cucumber NoodlesCrispy Baked EggplantGrilled Eggplant & Summer Veggie PastaEggplant & Mushroom "Meatballs"Swiss Chard & White Bean TacosPeanut Noodle Kale BowlsKale & Fennel Vegetable SoupMango Avocado Collard WrapsMiso-braised Mustard GreensWatercress, Feta & Farro SaladHow to Make a Kale Salad (& matrix of ideas)Cashew & Caper Dill SpreadSpring Leek Soup with Purple SageAvocado Pesto Mozzarella TartinesPortobello Sliders with Pepita PestoCrispy Shiitake BLTSoba with Mushrooms & Crumbled HazelnutsShiitake & Spinach Miso SoupGrilled Leeks with Mint PesoSpring Onion PizzasQuinoa Tacos with Quick Pickled OnionsSpring Leek & Lemon PastaQuick Pickled OnionsSpring Pea & Mint CrostiniFeta & Pea Tendril OmelettePea & Sweet Potato SamosasPoblano QuesadillasRoasted Red Pepper & Carrot SoupRed Pepper Feta FrittataBlistered Padron PeppersGrilled Pepper & Quinoa Taco SaladSweet Potato Tacos with Apple Radish SlawBaked Eggs with Kale, Sage, & Sweet PotatoesLemon Rosemary Roasted PotatoesLoaded Sweet Potato NachosCurried Parsnip & White Bean SoupKale Salad with Roasted Root VeggiesParsnip Fries with Red Pepper HummusKohlrabi Spring RollsSpring Polenta with Radishes & Garlic ScapesVegan Tart Cherry French ToastMango & Daikon Glass Noodle SaladFarm Stand Peach PizzasGrilled Peach Salad with Toasted PistachiosTomato Chickpea Tortilla SoupGreen Tomato Basil Grilled CheeseHeirloom Tomato Panzanella with Fresh OreganoSimple Fresh Tomato SauceWheat Berry Delicata Squash SaladButternut Squash Red CurryButternut Squash & Black Bean EnchiladasCreamy Pumpkin Brown Rice PenneButternut Squash Risotto & AranciniZucchini Lasagna with Zucchini "Ricotta"Double Chocolate Zucchini MuffinsSummer Squash & Cherry Tomato PastaSummer Squash SuccotashThe styling of the book is very similar to the authors' blog, with dreamy photos, lots of white space, and clear directions in a simple font. Every recipe is accompanied by a corresponding photo on the facing page, and most recipes are only one page long, which is something that I love in my cookbooks. The front section gives a brief overview of how their blog came to exist, their style of cooking, what to make when faced with an abundance of produce, as well as what to stock in your pantry. At the end, there's a section that looks a bit like some of the mix & match boxes I loved in Mark Bittman's Kitchen Matrix, with a basic formula and then 4 variations to make it your own for pesto, hummus, salsa, guacamole, and smoothies. That is followed by a short section on basic recipes for cooking grains, pizza dough, sauces, spreads, and dressings.Virtually all of the recipes in this cookbook would be easy to cook on a weeknight within 20-30 minutes, maximally an hour. The ingredients are mostly cheap & easy to find at any of my local supermarkets (in suburban NJ). Many of the recipes are quite simple, but they're combinations that work, the directions are well-written, and the end result is tasty. Jeanine has written recipes that are accessible to anyone, regardless of their skill level. The butternut squash red curry is a perfect rendition of one of my favorite take-out orders, and using this cookbook I can make it for myself in less time than it takes for delivery, and I think it tastes better. There are some new ideas (to me) in here as well, like the zucchini "ricotta", which I am quite excited to find since I've always struggled with making a delicious dairy-free lasagna.

Title: Functional, practical, gorgeous book
Review: As a busy working mom, this book has revamped the way I approach getting dinner on the table for my family. I used to spend an hour or more writing out a meal plan and grocery list each week, only to get to the market and realize a number of the ingredients I needed were out of stock, unappealing, or ridiculously expensive, thus throwing off that week's meal plan. This book is organized by type of vegetable or fruit, and empowers the reader to go to the grocery store or farmers' market, without much of a list in hand, and just buy what's in season, looks good and is affordable, then come home and figure it out. The author lays out what items to always have on hand in your kitchen to ensure you can throw a meal together, and is a bit more loose and imprecise in her instruction, which is how I prefer to cook, especially during this busier season of life. I also appreciate her little tips and tricks for using up and enjoying various fruits and veggies. For instance, don't buy baby carrots! Buy tiny, organic heirloom ones, as they're 1000 times better.My husband is very much a "meat and potatoes" kind of guy, and as this is a vegetarian cookbook, it's helped bring more plant-based, vibrant meals in our lives. I often add some chicken or beef to these recipes for his sake, but it's more of a garnish or side, rather than the main event.The icing on the cake here, is It's also a gorgeous book--one you won't want to hide in the pantry, but display as a decorative touch. Seriously, even if the recipes were terrible, I'd still keep this book stacked on our sideboard, it's that pretty.Finally, my one and only complaint is that this book is too thick to lay flat inside my cookbook holder.All in all, this cookbook is a gem. The recipes are fresh and creative, and never feel too stuffy or unattainable.

Title: Lots of Interesting Recipes
Review: What I loved most were the pictures of the food. I want to know what it looks like when the dish is completed. Second, I look for how easy the recipe is to cook. I also want one that does not use a ton of ingredients as I am looking for deliciousness and simplicity. What I also liked was the index of recipes in alphabetical order. I think this book has it all in terms of well organized and well presented to the eye of the reader.

Title: LOVVVVEEE this book! Gorgeous and Well Written.
Review: This cookbook is absolutely beautiful!!! Love and Lemons is one of my favorite cooking blogs and this book did not disappoint in anyway. I have had this book for about a month and have already made 8 recipes out of it and each one was great. I love the way it is organized by vegetable too!!! Jeanine's writing and recipes as well as the pages on what staples to have in your kitchen and her advice on what she calls "cooking backward" have helped me tremendously and I can already feel it having an impact on the way that I cook. Instead of following specific recipes I am able to pick up something great from the farmers market and make it something even better. Or if i have something in the house i'm not sure what to do with, I can usually find one of her recipes and just make a variation of it on what I have.When I first started vegetarianism I struggled at how to make vegetables a meal and this cookbook is a massive step in the right direction. The recipes are simple, easy and can also be modified to what ingredients you might have. And they are all delicious. Cannot say enough good things. Thank you Jeanine for a wonderful book!
