You Can't Pronounce It, Don't Eat It!

This is not only good advice, it's
the title of a basic guide to veganism. Here's the perfect first
step towards better healtha book with delicious, nutritious,
kid-tested recipes and plenty of tips for parents.
And, it's written by our own Janet
Tubbs ("Omni"), one of the founders of VegSource.
If you've been thinking about changing
your diet but don't know where to start, this book will help. It's
easy to read and understand, amusing and filled with parenting tips
as well as great, uncomplicated recipes. The left hand pages are
left blank for your own notes, recipes or doodles.
It's hard to believe that food without
sugar, meat, dairy products, preservatives or additives of any kind
can taste so good. Would you believe that some of the best tasting
snacks are the healthiest for you and fun for children to help prepare
and eat?
There's a great chapter at the end
of the book on homeopathy. It may seem strange to some people that
a few pages on illness and healing are included in a cookbook, but
it makes sense that a healthy body needs an unadulterated diet and
Janet says this includes removing all unnecessary drugs and chemicals
from whatever source, whether food or medication. And it makes sense
to learn about homeopathy because they're natural remedies.
If you're asked (and what vegetarian
isn't?) "Where do you get your protein?" you'll find the
answer in this book along with information about vitamins and supplements.
Two of the recipes were featured in Vegetarian Gourmet Magazine,
so you know they're good!
