The same simplicity and clarity for which her teaching is known shines through the stories written by the monks. The many low-fat vegetarian recipes are organized in standard cookbook format: Main Dishes, Soups, Breads, Desserts, etc. There are many special features including items such as tips and suggestions for low fat cooking, how to cook whole grains, and cooking with tofu.

This orange sauce was just okay, even with chili crisp. Moving on up! #Mtcookbook

Tamra I‘m putting this book in the donate pile. (Yes, I have a pile.) 😆 After thumbing through it, the recipes in general are rather bland. 4mo
mabell I‘m up to several donate piles 😂 4mo

#Mtcookbook adventure! Carrot bread - counts as a vegetable serving, right? 😉

Definitely yummy and not at all too sweet. Recipe indicates raisins are optional, but I wouldn‘t omit because the only sugar comes from 1/2 cup maple syrup & apple sauce.

The tagged cookbook is vegetarian and good one if you like limited ingredient, simple recipes. I need more spice & flavors in general, but that‘s easy to adjust on my end.

IndoorDame Looks delicious!!! 4mo
Tamra @IndoorDame my kids will want more sugar in it, but they don‘t need it! 4mo
IndoorDame @Tamra haha, I‘m always cutting down the sugar in cookbook sweets recipes 4mo
