Absolutely love this cookbook

I tried this book on the recommendation of a nutricianist at the Holistic Health Center I go to.  I have a sweet-tooth and felt that I couldn't make all the huge changes I was about to make in my lifestyle (some of which was to give up sugar and all artificial sweetners, wheat and dairy).  This cookbook helped me make these changes without any withdrawal or feeling denied.

The cinnamon appple muffins and the chocolate chip scones were the first "sweets" I made and had rave reviews from my husband who is very picky.  I then made the eggplant parmesean which was amazing.  My husband asked to have it again within two weeks of having it the first time.  Neither one of us were ever "eggplant lovers".  The next was the traditional carrot cake with the coconut frosting.  Every recipe has been great so far.  I think I'll experiment with more of the main course meals and breads next.

I know people are mentioning the grapeseed oil, and I like it.  I personally think you can reduce the amount just a tad.  Most people don't realize that is the most effective "high heat" oil out there (won't turn rancid as most vegatable oils will in higher heat..which defeats the efforts we are taking to eat healthier).  I also use coconut oil sometimes for its amazing health related qualities, but always use the grapeseed oil with the higher heats.

As far as the agave nectar, I love it as well.  It is another one of those items you can reduce a tad if you don't like your dessert quite as sweet.  I only use 100% pure agave nectar and feel very confident I'm making a much healthier choice then white sugar or artificial sweetener.  Some people mentioned honey, and I believe that is a "flavor" and not a sweetener.

I can't wait to try more of the recipes.  With the help of this cookbook and the other nutritional changes I've made, I feel and look great.

Of all my cookbooks, this one gets the most use because the recipes are simple and the meals always come out delicious.  The pictures are great and there are example menus to try for different occasions which are very helpful when planning a dinner or brunch.  The recipes from local restaurants and chefs are such a great bonus and make the cookbook a great gift, too.  This is our family's go-to cookbook - everything we've made has received rave reviews.  I love it and can't recommend it enough!

I absolutely love to cook and have a collection of more than 75 cookbooks.  I typically find recipes online now, but the reviews on this book were so strong I decided to purchase it.  Every single thing I have cooked from this book has been simple but fantastic.  After serving guests a series of four recipes from this book last night it is certain - this is the best cookbook I have ever purchased.  I served the beef satay, firecracker shrimp, Mom's fish and grilled bananas stuffed with chocolate.

This is an AWESOME cookbook, I love the way the recipes are listed in the book, very easy to follow.  The ingredients are listed in order to how they should be placed in the machine, there are instruction for 1, 1/2, and 2 lb loaves.  The print is large which also makes the recipes easy to follow.  I own her whole series of BM cookbooks because I like them so much!!  Great variety also--if I have a certain ingredient that I want to use up in my cupboard, 9 times out of 10 I can find a recipe for bread that I can use it in!!  Can't say enough good things about this cookbook!!

I absolutely love this cookbook!  I went from rarely cooking to wanting to cook every single day after following Laura Lea on instagram.  This cookbook is filled with great recipes, and nothing seems too crazy or un-acheivable. Also, it was so beautifully put together...the photos are gorgeous and I love how it is organized. Because every recipe is so good, I have tried so many new foods that I never had tried before.  Everyone should have a copy of this cookbook!

This is absolutely my favorite cookbook.  The recipes are simple and delicious and the variations that are included offer even more ways to prepare the same dish.  Everything that I have tried from this cookbook has turned out so good and have resulted in some of our favorite dishes.
Rabbi Marks also includes information about spices and vegetables and Jewish culture making the cookbook a fascinating read as well (I actually read the whole cookbook before I even tried any of the recipes!).
It is well worth the money!

I cannot say enough good things about this cookbook. The recipes are easy to make, the ingredients are things that I generally have in my kitchen, and everything I've made has turned out great! I have a coulple other hungry girl cookbooks but this is by far my favorite. I haven't ventured into the black bean desserts yet....but I can't wait to try!

I absolutely love this book. I'm personally not vegan, but her recipes are delicious and realistic. I hate when a recipe calls for 5,000 obscure ingredients and this keeps it simple. Time to cook is also great, sometimes I'm just really tired but want something that doesn't make me feel awful. Laura has done a great job both organizing the cookbook as well as writing heartfelt intros to the book, chapters, and each recipe. Already gifted this book to one of my dearest friends in addition to purchasing my own copy and will probably give it as a gift again.

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!

Was beyond excited to get this cookbook and start adding some new recipes to my family's dinner table.  I have tried several recipes and my son and husband have raved about them all.  Trying some new flavors, and absolutely LOVE the section with dressings/sauces/mixtures that I can create from scratch and use daily instead of buying processed versions.  Love the Everyday Chicken and my absolute fave is the Herbed Salmon!  Katie you have outdone yourself on this fabulous cookbook!

I received it as a gift a year and a half ago, and it has become my all-time favorite cookbook. Just about every recipe I've made from it has been excellent--no tweaking required. My husband, who is not vegan, has happily eaten many of the items I've made from this cookbook and particularly loves the chia power donuts and the chana masala. Another big fave of ours is the creamy vegetable curry. Angela Liddon has done her recipe testing--she knows what she's doing, does not skimp on seasoning, and isn't including impossible-to-find ingredients. Oh She Glows is also written in an upbeat and engaging way, with just the right amount of info and without superfluous text. I can't wait to buy Liddon's next cookbook. Non-vegan members of my family have also purchased and enjoyed this cookbook.

One of the very best true vegan cookbooks I have.  Excellent meal and condiment recipes as well as comfort food for those special times!  Love love this book.  I am always referring back to it.  No complex hard to find ingredients and excellent suggestions on making substitutions.  This cookbook even had me creating spin-off recipes.  My family loves my cooking!!!
