Booklist
Can anyone ever regard fava beans in the same light after watching The Silence of the Lambs? Regardless of the movie's impact, vegetarianism does make sense these days, especially considering recent medical research. Weight Watchers' magazine editor Rosensweig, aided by Prevention magazine staffers, musters the attack on carnivores by debunking myths about a fruit-and-vegetable-only diet. The 250 recipes follow, presented in a conversational manner, with some expected as well as surprising dishes, including black-eyed pea souffl{‚}e, black bean pizza, onion-apple soup with crumb topping, fried polenta with cranberry-maple topping, ratatouille, and apple-bran muffins. Of course, nutritional information abounds. But no desserts are included. A month-long menu plan helps those wondering what to fix when. Barbara Jacobs
