We've only made two of these recipes so far, but they've both been really good: roasted brussels sprouts, pear, and shallots with lemon juice (pear never would have occurred to me) and soba noodles with veggies and yuuuuuum dressing. I will be re-requesting this from the library!

(Oh, and only four stars because halfish of these include fish and meat. Sad for me!) ( )
