A Rich Harvest of Wit, Lore and Recipes
When Vegetariana was first released in 1984, its first major review predicted that it would “prove itself a classic”—and it has. With quotations, folklore, and literary tidbits, this wittily illustrated celebration of vegetarianism delights the eye as well as the palate. With more than 230 recipes, this updated edition is as much fun to cook from as it is to read.
Praise for the original edition:
A one-woman masterpiece celebrating vegetarianism, it’s an offbeat, lighthearted look at the lore of vegetarian foods, well as a compilation of good, appetizing recipes. — Detroit News
A treasure. Atlas’s historical journeys are whimsical and memorable. Good, simple recipes, enough to form an entire repertoire of healthy, ethnic cuisine. — Vegetarian Times
Aside from the great recipes, this charming cookbook provides an overview of vegetarianism. — Glamour magazine
A cookbook that is as much a pleasure to look at as it is to cook from. — Washington Jewish Week

Nava,
Are you the person who published a recipe for tofu baked with apples, to be used as a spread? I believe it was called Morning Tofu. Extremely delicious on toast.
If you are, please tell me which of your books it is in, so that I can buy the book. I used to have it, long ago.
Thanks,
Jan

Hi Jan, that recipe wasn’t in any of my books, alas, but I was curious, so I tried to find it for you. This recipe in an old issue of Vegetarian Times sounds like what you’re looking for. Is this it? http://tinyurl.com/3sbeuv6
