Vegetarian Times Fast and Easy: Great Food You Can Make in Minutes (Cooking)
By Vegetarian Times Magazine
Wiley - 2008
Sugar Snap Peas Almondine : page 112
Crunchy and flavorful - and quick! These took maybe 5 minutes to prepare the ingredients, and another 5 to put it together. The crunch of the peas, and their sweetness, played off the lemon zest in a wonderful way. Toasted almonds added that last piece of perfection.

Tempeh with Coconut Milk and Lemongrass : page 136
A nice main dish, but the sauce was way too heavy on the peanut butter. I couldn't taste the lemongrass or the coconut milk.
We used tofu in place of tempeh (suggested in the recipe). Red bell pepper, snow peas, and green onion were sauteed, as was the tofu. Sauce added and cooked to thicken, then served over whole wheat noodles (or other pasta or rice).
14-daughter prepared this and she did an excellent job. It tasted very nice.

Waldorf Salad : page 65
This is an unusual Waldof salad, and I think if I had all the ingredients on hand, it would have rated a 5. I'll probably revisit this recipe, to try it the way it is written.
This waldorf includes apples, pears, celery, toasted pecans, golden raisins and celery -- a more diverse set of fruit/veggies than the waldorf of my youth. The dressing called for reducing apple cider, and mixing it with yogurt and cinnamon. That would have been awesome, but I had no cider on hand. Instead, I tried to make up for the sweetness by sprinkling some sugar and cinnamon on the fruit, and topping with plain yogurt.
