Moosewood Restaurant Simple Suppers: Fresh Ideas for the Weeknight Table


The Moosewood Collective - 2005
    Fresh fruits and vegetables. Lean, nutrient-rich fish. We all know the virtues of a well-balanced diet—of choosing foods that nourish our bodies and respect the environment—but as the world around us gets busier and more complicated, we also know how difficult it can be to prepare a wholesome, satisfying supper. With an emphasis on healthful natural foods, Moosewood Restaurant has operated successfully for more than thirty years and has been acclaimed as a driving force in the world of creative vegetarian cuisine. Now the Moosewood Collective goes back to basics with Moosewood Restaurant Simple Suppers to deliver fresh, imaginative, and quickly prepared dishes for the weeknight table that are also delicious and reliable.Shortcut Chili. Creamy Lemon Pasta. Warm French Lentil Salad. Pine Nut–Crusted Fish. Mocha Sorbet. From soups and pastas made with just a few pantry essentials to crisp salads, stir-fries, sandwiches, and desserts, these easy-to-prepare recipes are brilliant as is. However, the folks at Moosewood realize that flexibility is the cornerstone of weeknight cooking, so you’ll find clever ingredient substitutions, alternative cooking methods, and serving suggestions alongside the recipes in Simple Suppers—it all depends on what’s in the fridge and what sounds appetizing at the moment. Make extra Fresh Tomato and Mozzarella Salad on Monday and toss leftovers with hot pasta for Tuesday’s supper. No onions for Black Beans with Pickled Red Onions? Try the beans over rice with Quick Avocado and Corn Salsa instead. The 175-plus recipes in Moosewood Restaurant Simple Suppers are as flexible as they are flavorful—the perfect go-to for a quick, healthy meal any day of the week, any time of year.We crave simple food. We want cooking at home to be a small pleasure—relaxed enough that we can enjoy the process as well as the results. When we mentioned to friends that we were thinking of doing a book of recipes for simple suppers, inevitably they exclaimed, “That’s the one I need” or “Write that book for me.” The idea of simple suppers strikes a chord within us all. We hope this cookbook will help make suppertime a welcome, peaceful time of your day. —from the Introduction

The Christian Vegan Revised Psalms


Saba - 2005
    It clearly shows how the Creator's will for all beings is always good, and why the laws of God forbids any animal and nature abuse. It also explains how Christianity, the science of God (Christian Science), and the vegan way of life are all based on the same biblical principles. Most of the psalms in this book are carefully revised and edited, in order to bring forth more of their spiritual meaning. These potent songs comprise the gospel of nature, the spirit, and the sentiments of all living beings, through Christ Jesus, the perfect psalmist. Moreover, the book shows the Lord Christ Jesus to be the only true savior, shepherd, cowherd, and the best friend of all the animals and God's universe. It also acknowledges the signs and the wonderful works of the Lord Holy Spirit, in the world today. In short, the reader can learn more from this book, how to worship the Holy Father of the anointed in righteousness, how to be saved from the second death, and how to work for lasting peace, full redemption, and healing of the universe by adapting the Christian vegan and the scientifically sound way of life.

If you decide to try a vegan diet, an easy 30 day program is included. Eating healthy is not boring, is not a sacrifice, and it does not have to be a political statement. You do not have to change your lifestyle to be a vegan, but it may change your life. It is not difficult. If you ever get hungry, just munch on your neighbor's lawn!
