Opinion

I think that this book is awesome! As the author states in this book, I am not a vegetarian yet, but I can at least consume less meat.

As I am a poor girl of Sicilian descent. I like the recipe for Meatless BLT and think such a recipe is perfect. For example, I usually have toast for lunch meat sandwiches. Maybe I can do my part and have Meatless BLT every once in a while.

I think that you are going to like this book also!

I give this book a 5-star rating!
