It's a sampler of wit, folk wisdom, verse, botanical lore, literary anecdotes, and aphrodisia, all pertaining to the delights of delicious foods and wholesome meals. Taking her cues from her subjects, Nava animates the pages with her whimsical illustrations to create a lighthearted celebration of the vegetarian way of life.While this is definitely a cookbook to take to bed with you to read, it's just as much fun in the kitchen. With basic, tasty recipes such as Broccoli and Parsley Rice, Boston Baked Beans, Bow Ties with Cabbage, Carrots with Mission Figs, Spicy Summer Fruit, and much more, Vegetariana will likely become one of your favorite resources.
