Mediterranean Vegetarian Cooking: Innovative Vegetarian Recipes For The Adventurous Cook by Janet Swarbrick

The initial pleasures of Mediterranean vegetarian cooking are wonderful taste and natural goodness. But this style of cuisine not only satisfies the palate, it brings long-term health benefits as well! The foods used are closest to nature--fresh fruits and vegetables; unrefined grains, nuts, and beans; and no chemical additives--and are high in vitamins and minerals, high in fiber, and low in fat. Dipping into a cook's palette of colors, flavors and textures, this book collects recipes for an extensive range of dishes--some traditional, others using healthful substitutions of ingredients or more accessible cooking methods. The result is a cornucopia of appetizers, snacks, and desserts, plus such delicious main dishes as Baked Stuffed Zucchini, Eggplant Ragout, and Pasta with Green Peppers and Pesto. Vegetarian cooking represents the best aspects of the Mediterranean lifestyle: it is relaxed in every way and tantalizingly seductive to the senses.
