Perfect for you if...

  • You want weeknight dinners that taste sophisticated but don't require hours in the kitchen or obscure ingredients.
  • You're exploring vegetarian cooking but need recipes that feel satisfying and flavourful, not like a compromise.
  • You appreciate practical shortcuts and substitution tips that let you cook confidently with what you have on hand.

Maybe not for you if...

  • You rely on meat as your primary protein and aren't interested in exploring vegetable-forward cooking.
  • You prefer detailed technique instruction and deep dives into cooking theory over straightforward, accessible recipes.
  • You need recipes for specific dietary restrictions like gluten-free or nut-free without clear labelling throughout the book.

About this book

Marie Simmons, a James Beard and Julia Child award-winning author, presents over 150 vegetarian dinner recipes in this cookbook. Her recipes feature bold, imaginative flavors from around the world and have appeared in publications including Redbook and Bon Appétit, where she was a columnist. Most recipes can be prepared in thirty minutes or less. Each recipe includes an equally simple accompaniment. Some dishes, like Roasted Vegetables and Mozzarella Quesadillas, work as complete meals, while others are smaller dishes that can be combined for a quick dinner. A number of recipes are vegan. Preparation times are provided for each recipe. The cookbook also includes hundreds of tips for shortcuts and substitutions. According to Publishers Weekly, Simmons offers "interesting... sophisticated [and]... easy meatless options."
