Very Good Salads is a seasonal cookbook filled with delicious salads, vegetable dishes and dips to accompany the ultimate falafel recipe.

Very Good Salads is filled with more than 50 Middle Eastern and Mediterranean-inspired recipes that showcase the best seasonal produce, with an emphasis on vegetarian and vegan dishes.

From Shuki Rosenboim and Louisa Allan, the team behind cult-favorite Very Good Falafel in Melbourne, Australia, this seasonal cookbook includes veggie-filled plates, salads, dips, pita and pickles, alongside the best chickpea falafel recipe.

Each dish makes use of the whole vegetable, with classic and less-expected pairings such as watermelon salad with za’atar, radish and fried pita; freekeh and hazelnut; and grilled leek with pomegranate, walnuts, spring onion, mint, dill and lemon zest; as well as larger offerings such as silverbeet rice cake and stuffed tomatoes with saffron rice and dried mint. In addition, the book shares recipes for traditional dips and the ultimate pita recipe that produces flawless bread to stuff or serve alongside salads and share plates. It’s simple, classic fare, but food that has earned Shuki and Louisa a place in Melbourne restaurant royalty.

This beautiful cookbook is the perfect gift for salad fiends, vegetable lovers, wholefood cooks and those looking for new and creative ways to enjoy the best seasonal produce.

Originally published in 1932. This little book contains something for everyone desiring to excel in home baking. There are a variety of novelties for experienced folk, but there is also definite instruction in the preliminaries of Cake Making, and recipes of the simple economical variety with which a novice may make a succesful trial trip. It is a great temptation, on seeing an interesting recipe, to plunge into the making without due forethought, and I would urge the inexperienced to note the Success Secrets, and to read the chapter on Modern Cake Making thoroughly before beginning work. All the recipes have been testes (and eaten!) many times and are in constant use in teaching Cookery Students. Contents include: Concerning Cakes - Preparation - Making - Baking - Icing - Varieties of Cakes, Pastries, Pastry Making - Cake, Old and New - Cakes of Some English Counties - Scotch and Irish Cakes - French Cakes - Canadian and American Cakes.

In this book columnist Sandy Holthaus covers everything from "The Coldest Place on Earth" (an outhouse seat in January) to "How to Hire A Hit Man" (for a Chihuahua) all tied together with more than 200 recipes that are delicious and easy to prepare. Against her better judgment she has even included a few zucchini recipes but she'd rather you crave this squash into a boat and send it down the river. If you love to eat and enjoy a good story, you are holding the right book

This book is about making healthy food choices. It contains information about how to choose products, how to alter recipes, ingredient substitutions, and nearly 150 recipes. My food preparation concept is easy to follow, because I do not count calories, and I do not measure portion sizes. I make healthy food choices, and I always read labels. Choosing the right foods and ingredients contributes to health, well-being, and energy levels. After my husband and I changed our eating habits in 2006, we both lost weight, and we have maintained a healthy weight, and healthy blood pressure and cholesterol levels since then. Since we are empty nesters, many of the recipes serve four or less, and they can easily be doubled.
