[at-l] food/nutrition advice

[daveh@psknet.com (Dave Hicks)]

I think I have and like (no love) all of her books.

Then I have about a four foot bookshelf of cookbooks.

All of hers, Lorna Sass' _Great Vegetarian Cooking Under Pressure_ , Bobbie
Hinman & Millie Snyder's _Lean and Luscious and Meatless_,   Elisabeth
Lauard's _The Old World Kitchen_, the New York Times _Soups and Bread_ , and
McCormick's _Spices of the World Cookbook_, get the most workout.  The last
three are not specifically vegetarian, but the use of TVP, or the
substitution of tofu, eggplant, and mushrooms make for wonderful conversions
of many of the recipes, when I need to cook vegetarian.
