That's awesome. It sounds like there is a good mix of everything in there. It's too bad some of the recipes were disappointing, but many of them sound really good. <br />The samosa cakes look SO GOOD!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17741739604149676771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-17190137259575866912017-05-26T06:25:49.308+10:002017-05-26T06:25:49.308+10:00I love cookbook reviews that really go into detail...I love cookbook reviews that really go into detail and test a lot of recipes, so you know whether it's worth a buy or not. There's a lot of good looking eats in there, but I think it looks like more of a loaner than a buyer for me. That said, I really need to find out the tofu fish and chips recipe!Joeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17066424084187434409noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-58684693949898846882017-05-25T23:11:12.005+10:002017-05-25T23:11:12.005+10:00Oh my, what great recipes!

The "It's all rabbit food" section sounds so cute.

And I actually like the chapter titles.Lorraine @ Not Quite Nigellahttp://www.notquitenigella.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-12807577589586722032017-05-23T04:57:02.702+10:002017-05-23T04:57:02.702+10:00This is such a timely blog post and review of the ...This is such a timely blog post and review of the cookbook, Why?! I picked up a copy of this and But My Family Would never Eat that I think from Bristol VegFest at the weekend. And guess what, I cooked my first dish from it yesterday - the BBQ cauliflower. I have not used it as extensively as you, but it is because of your perusal and Faye's that I treated myself to my own copy. I think your spot on with your review, I am struggling with the layout in relation to allocation of recipes, but its still fun. I am inspired to make the samosa cakes and sauerkraut dishes. I know the dishes won't all be to my taste and may disappoint like the brownies, but I do like my cookbooks and there is enough in them to interest me. <br /><br />Finally, I love your photographs and your take on the recipes - sometimes we bloggers when we cook from cookbooks try to emulate the images in the cookbook, I like that you steered away from that. <br />Shaheenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03602971207085826708noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6742756814967464811.post-85140458834601979002017-05-22T23:12:03.821+10:002017-05-22T23:12:03.821+10:00What an amazing test run you did of the book!

I think you'll definitely have to get your own copy :-)Karihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15887621874869110597noreply@blogger.com
