Quick Vegetarian Pleasures

March 1, 1992
One grows wary of vegetarian cookbooks these days. Is this something new? What's the angle? "Quick Vegetarian Pleasures" is certainly a welcome addition to the growing instruction in matters meatless. This varied cookbook provides it all, from appetizers (chopped black-olive spread) to entrees (baked stuffed tomatoes with peas, couscous, and feta cheese) to desserts (glazed cardamom pears). Relying on few to no "exotic" ingredients, Lemlin, also author of "Vegetarian Pleasures", has provided some really tasty, easy-to-prepare recipes. Recommended for all cookery collections. Menu organizer included. ((Reviewed Mar. 1, 1992))(Reprinted with permission of Booklist, copyright 1992, American Library Association.)
