A great vegan cookbook, especially useful for families with younger children, or for the family that wants to start including healthy, meat free dishes in their regular diet.
This is a very cheerful, colorful book, full of bright, tasty looking recipes. King divides the recipes into helpful sections like Quick (30 minutes or less to prepare), Easy (slow cooker), Make Ahead, and Entertain (for entertaining, of course).
The section with slow cooker recipes is packed with many recipes, most of show more which I will be trying out in my kitchen. The large amount of recipes is a nice change from other non-slow cooker cookbooks that include a handful to be able to feature slow cooking as a section.
Other helpful inclusions are sections with useful advice on how to handle picky eaters and tips to save time and money. A chart clearly explains how to make several vegan egg substitutes; another lists soaking and cooking times for beans.
Overall very cheerfully written, containing many great-looking recipes.

I really wanted to like this book -- I am a huge fan of basketball -- but I was weighed down and bored by its tedious descriptions. It had moments of true inspiration and I particularly enjoyed the end, where she coached a team of young girls, but overall - I just wanted it to end. Very disappointing.
