What' your favorite cookbook?
I noticed many vegan cookbooks are loaded with sugar and white starches. What's up with that?

I love that!
Very true, Mr. Creativity.

My favourite Vegan Cooking book is ''Vegan Planet'', they have 400 recipes, and the recipes are so easy.. seriously, every vegan should buy their copy of this book. i recommend. =)
I also have ''Vegan World Fusion Cousine'' it's a outstanding book, but 90% of the recipes there are not ''everyday-easy-simple-to-prepare'' recipes, it's a great book though, but not for making 'everyday' food.

Don't bother counting calories...its only worth doing if your eating lousy food. The Thrive Diet is a great book because it has lots of recipes and a 12 week meal plan...if not that though pretty much any organic/health purposed vegan cookbook will be good so long as you don't eat the same thing over and over again. If you mix things up you'll be fine.
I LOVE Vegan with a Vengence. I just received my copy of Thrive and went shopping today for the recipes for the first week of the 12 weeks. I will start tomorrow! Also my roommate (a meateater) is going vegan with the Thrive plan (as a trial, but I suspect she will like how she feels going vegan and perhaps it will be more than a trial!)

Hi everyone,
Thanks for the reccommendations. I think I'll try that Thrive first & see how it goes. I agree w/veganpotter, you gotta mix it up or you'll get bored. I suppose it's like anything. You can eat only but so much brown rice & tofu...lol, lol
