Created from the heart, The Conscious Cook is much more than a vegetarian recipe book, it is a guide for daily health and living. Simply written, profoundly therapeutic, it has easy to follow procedures and exquisite recipes. Kamala treats food with the respect that it deserves. She addresses special dietary needs without putting extreme limitations on the normal diner. I am inspired by reading over and over the wise quotations that Kamala has so beautifully interwoven throughout.
