I see that you are from Minnesota, as we are.<br />Eat local in MN would have to mean giving up most fruits because they don't grow here. What do you think? PS ... I love pineapple!Sunshinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12381269071684742007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-82611658741545000222009-09-11T10:40:47.748-05:002009-09-11T10:40:47.748-05:00Les, I also wish there were photographs included i...Les, I also wish there were photographs included in this book.

Helps me know if it's something I'd like.<br /><br />We're eating less and less red meat (maybe once a week now), but still have chicken or fish on the other nights. My husband doesn't mind skipping the beef, but he does like to have something other than veggies and grains.<br /><br />Thanks for the review, Tara. I'll have to look up the Fruity Balsamic Vinaigrette recipe tomorrow. Sounds delicious!Leshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08345657431432380804noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-67184327170858282442009-09-04T10:17:43.325-05:002009-09-04T10:17:43.325-05:00Ti, sorry that you were forced into this diet, but...Ti, sorry that you were forced into this diet, but I'm glad you are feeling good! This may be a good book for you to check out.<br /><br />Kathy, I do too, for the most part. My husband has become more okay with the veg thing (not every day!). <br /><br />Eva, I was TOTALLY thinking of you when I read this book, b/c I knew you had gone Vegan. But you know what, this would really be perfect for you if you need to be gluten free. The author uses all sorts of alternative flours and grains. Check it out!<br /><br />JoAnn, I thought my husband would be the same way but he is okay eating veg some of the time. I mean, he doesn't miss meat when I give him pasta with marinara sauce, and then I just went from there. <br /><br />Nan, I will let you know about those recipes for sure- don't they sound good. I don't know what it is with men and meat. I've been feeding my guy veg meals 2-3 times a week for awhile now, and sometimes he still says 'where's the meat' - he's kidding and thinks he's funny - and wants to see me roll my eyes - but I don't think he's 100% kidding! I think it's worth trying though and that many people would be suprised what their families would eat if only given the chance. My daughter is growing up thinking it's totally normal not to eat meat every day, to eat fish, to eat beans, to eat salad for dinner with hummus and my husband is fine with it too. Also it helps that I've forbidden him to complain in front of her! Hehe. <br /><br />Staci, it would be great for your niece! Good idea.Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07208766776468157501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-59060116059811144592009-09-02T21:34:09.150-05:002009-09-02T21:34:09.150-05:00Sounds good.

It baffles me.

But I'd like to get back to eating vegan when I figure out what works for me. :)Evahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06703372903532502944noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5040657217275018769.post-43455446862679612522009-09-01T10:20:03.674-05:002009-09-01T10:20:03.674-05:00I agree with the author - I prefer foods close to ...I agree with the author - I prefer foods close to the natural source too. I could easily go without meat, but whenever I prepare a vegetarian meal, my husband always asks me where the meat is.

I have tried to work it into my family's meals as well and they haven't complained yet.
