(More customer reviews)I use this cookbook in combination with another, Greek Vegetarian Cookery, since both have similar recipes but some slightly different ingredients and I love to play when I cook. I see these two cookbooks as equals since they overlap in some areas not in others and where they overlap its interesting to combine ingredients from the two recipes to make something more flavorful. This is a great cookbook even as a stand-alone though, don't get me wrong. There are some excellent recipes for moussaka in here (3 different recipes are provided which is neat). The recipes are all quite easy and don't call for a lot of ingredients - all ingredients are easily found in the supermarket. There are quite a few eggplant recipes in here which for me was great since I love eggplant and am often looking for new ways to prepare it. So far what I've tried has been great. There's a good use of a variety of herbs (such as garlic, basil, cinnamon, etc - things that are pretty commonplace) and they're used appropriately. The chapters cover some of everything: appetizers (e.g. eggplant dip, cheese sticks, stuffed grape leaves - excellent recipe), soups (onion, lentil, chick pea) , salads (black-eyed pea salad, cabbage salad, greek salad, etc), entrees (eggplant soufflé, baked eggplant, eggplant au gratin, falafel, potato patties, lima beans in sour cream, spinach pie, stuffed tomatoes, zucchini patties etc), sides (artichoke dishes, baked eggplant, eggplant in tomato sauce, onion stew etc), breads, sweets. Definitely recommend this cookbook. Nutritional information (fat, protein, calories is provided for each recipe as well)
