This cookbook is exactly what I have been looking for! Creative, healthy, and delicious recipes abound in this book. It's vegan without being pretentious, without tons of sugar and processed flour in the recipes, and includes a ton of magnificient vegetables (something that is often missing, strangely, in alot of vegan cookbooks). The first recipe I made, a warm spinach/apple salad, was so unlike anything I had ever eaten and yet possibly the most delicious thing I've cooked in years. I was hooked. I'm recommending this to all my friends, and I'll be serving dishes from it many times over. The word "student" in the title is misleading. This cookbook is for everyone interested in delicious, healthy, awesome recipes.

This is my new favorite cookbook! I've made about half of the recipes and have only disliked one. My husband is also a fan, and he isn't always easy to please! Our favorite meal so far is the cowboy grub. The chocolate cake is to die for! I'm getting this for birthday and Christmas gifts for family and friends!

Yesterday I bought my copy in Barnes & Noble after a friend told me about this fantastic cookbook! After my purchase, I drove straight to the grocery store. I sat in the parking lot picking some of the recipes, making a grocery list! Surprisingly, I had most of the staple ingredients called for. So far I have only made Creamy Kielbasa and Broccoli Pasta, but it was a hit with my men ages 49, 19 and 17, as well as me and my little 13 year old daughter. There were no leftovers even though it serves six! I was surprised to find all the fantastic photos were also taken by the author/cook! Amazing! I love the feel of the book... glossy and smooth. It has stays open on its own no matter what page you are on! Perfection for a cookbook! There are also "Cook's Notes" on each recipe that are so helpful. Two thumbs up to Mary Younkin!

I was so excited to receive my copy Against the Grain, and my excitement was well justified. This cookbook is fantastic! From the gorgeous cover (and back photos) to the easy to use layout, and the no muss-no fuss ease of the recipes. I've already had fun and success with the recipes like the skillet pizza and the carolina key lime cookies, yum!
Nancy Cain came to the gluten-free lifestyle due to her celiacs disease and others in her household, also owning a bakery by the same name in Vermont provide us with all her trial and error to receive these well formed recipes and ideas. I don't have celiacs, however so feel many sensitivities to gluten and am always seeking new and fresh ways to add my old favorites into the meal planning without the side effects I often feel from items with gluten. This cook book really offered that opportunity to my menu planning and with delicious options to boot. I really recommend this book if you're open to trying new and simple ways of baking and cooking minus the gluten in your life.

This is my new favorite cookbook! Everything I have made from it so far has been a huge hit - a particular favorite so far was the Chicken Pot Pie. It is weight watchers friendly - all the recipes give basic nutrition info if you want to do a quick and easy point calculation - and the food is tasty and low point values! Yeah, baby, I'm eating chicken pot pie and chicken cordon bleu and pizza on weight watchers!!!

Its also great for people who just want to eat yummy food without going overboard, though, you don't have to be losing weight to want to be healthy. The traditional versions of these dishes have dozens or sometimes nearly a hundred grams of fat, and usually over a thousand calories per serving! The versions in this cookbook are tasty and have much more appropriate nutrition values, and like I said, everything's been a huge hit around the whole table, even for the non-dieters.

Thanks Rocco!

AMAZING COOKBOOK! I have not been this impressed with any cookbook in a very long time. You do not even think you're following a diet plan or new lifestyle with this book! Suzanna did an amazing job putting these recipes together! Many of the recipes have simple i gradients that make dinner during the week quick, easy and delicious! I would recommend this cookbook to anyone even if you are not following a keto diet.

This is now one of my favorite cookbooks. I had similar complaints as some other reviewers, as at first I was put off by the lack of photos and the somewhat casual writing style, but I have grown to love it for the content: the recipes are flavorful, modern. So yes, make sure you read the ENTIRE recipe (turning pages too, as I made one recipe that had a continuation but I didn't know it!)

My favorite recipes so far are the Blackberry-Granola Muffins and the Lemongrass Pork Bun Bowls - get this book for those recipes alone!

This is a beautiful cookbook! I've already read it cover to cover, recipe by recipe. Can't wait to try everything. In the last week since I got it, I've only had the chance to make the Ship Shape Joes and the vanilla bean chocolate chip cookies, both of which were delicious! Which is no surprise to me, as recipe after recipe in Let Them Eat Vegan and from Dreena's blog has become a staple in my kitchen. Her recipes are just reliably delicious and hit the spot.

This is my very favorite cookbook in the world!  Every single recipe I have made has been absolutely delicious! The pictures showing the dishes are fantastic, also.  Very easy to fix recipes, with everyday ingredients are a plus for busy people!  Two of my favorites are the Lemon Raspberry Tiramisu  and the Creamy Cappuccino Frozen Desert.  Both are heavenly!  Great gift for newlyweds!

Having been a RFD fan for quite some time, I was very excited about "Vegan Family Meals: Real Food for Everyone." This cookbook has exceeded my expectations. The book itself is beautifully done-pleasing to the eye and well-written. It is a pleasure to read and cook from, and the food is delicious. (Even my carnivorous family and friends are impressed)! Everything that I've tried has been wonderful, and I can't wait to cook my way through the whole book. I live on the smoothies, granola, and salads; however, I am now addicted to maple tempeh bacon and oven-roasted sweet potato fries...yum!

Hands down the best cookbook I have ever owned.  I am so excited every time I open the pages to inspire my next menu.  The vivid pictures and simple to follow directions make it easy to follow and successfully create culinary masterpieces!  I have given three away as gifts and am delighted to spread the word of how good food can be!

I have a lot of cookbooks, but this is definitely my new favorite. It has so many delicious looking recipes (there are pictures for each meal) and every one I've made has been so good! My boyfriend told me that the "Flank Steak Rellenos" need to be a staple in our house. I've also made a tomato salad that in the book and wow-- so simple, but so much flavor! She has a lot of make ahead meals and slow cooker meals so this book really couldn't get much easier. Love it!

Some of the recipes have a few steps, but she also usually gives you short cuts if you don't want to take the time. I'm a pretty decent cook and the recipes have all been fairly simple that I've made so far. Some do require some prep work, but others are 30 minute meals. It just depends on what you're looking for but she has it all!

I am new to both the InstantPot and Jill Nussinow's cookbook. I love them both! I have made the Curried Quinoa Gravenstein Apple Salad, Doubly Red Asian Rice and Adzuki Patties, Jumping John with Black Eyes Peas and White Beans with Greens and Lemon. They were out of this world delicious and were easy enough to make quickly after work.  I am looking forward to trying the other recipes.  This is my new favorite/go to cookbook!

I went to junior high with the author, and recently "reunited" with her on facebook, where I found out about her blog and cookbook, Brokeass Gourmet. In support of her work, I ordered a few copies.  To my surprise, I ended up LOVING this sweet, personable, well written cookbook, and I can't wait to try every single recipe in it!  I'd like to highlight a few of the recipes I've tried; the Chicken mango flautas with lime crema, basil-feta turkeyburgers, homemade cheese ravioli, and Cranberry-Zinfandel brownie bites. These recipes are diverse, inexpensive, delicious and all look gorgeous on the plate. I hope I've made you hungry, now buy this book<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/The-BrokeAss-Gourmet-Cookbook/dp/0983859515/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">The BrokeAss Gourmet Cookbook</a>!!!

My husband gave me this cookbook for my birthday in February, and it was SO worth the wait! I've already cooked the pizza crust and sauce (twice), johnnycakes (twice), turkey meatloaf, spicy garlicky greens (3-4 times), the coconut crusted chicken, and the brownies (3 times). Everything has been wonderful. Not only has the food tasted good, but the recipes actually work like expected, which is saying a lot for "healthy" recipes. I also love the chick pea blondies from the blog and I make them often. I recently made them for house church and no one could tell that I made them with chick peas. All that to say, this cookbook is worth every penny!

I fell in love with EVERYTHING about this cookbook.  I gave it away as a gift and found it difficult to part with it.  It was a huge hit with the recipient too!  I will now order another for myself.  Can't wait to try the many delicious recipes!!
