A kitchen philosophy and the information and recipes to go with it. Dinner, breakfast and lunch menus are balanced according to nutrition, esthetics, and energy; creative use of dinner left-overs to make breakfast and lunch. Mostly vegetarian, a few recipes with fish and eggs. Menus are grouped according to season, with six complete "days" each for fall, winter, spring, and summer. A practical beginner's book, with tips on the timing of the cooking of each meal to maximize efficiency.
"It is difficult to imagine a better course for practicing, would-be, or even part-time vegetarians," said The New York Times of Annemarie Colbin's cooking classes. And, in this book, the founder of the successful Natural Gourmet Cookery School in New York City offers a whole year's worth of her popular classes.
