  • Good Foods 101 Veggie Dishes is a good one and only about £4.99, I bought my son Beyond Baked Beans Green: Real Veggie Food for Students by Fiiona Beckett when he went to uni that has proved most usefull, not just for students, has some very good recipes in :)
  • I have an old Madhur Jaffrey (sp?) book- Eastern Vegetarian Cooking book that is handy
  • cranks books are good- lots of pictures and adventurous (but not too obscure). also sainsburys used to do a good one.
  • I quite like 'Learning to cook vegetarian' by Rose Elliot

    The recipes that I've tried seem pretty straightforward and even I can follow them (I'm generally not very good with recipes :o )
  • The Delia Vegetarian Collection is fantastic! And only 10 pound or so in Asda at the moment! Not bad for a cookbook!

    I like the Sarah Brown ones. Another vote for Cranks and Rose Elliot too, her Mother and baby book when I had my kids in the 80s was invaluable.

    another vote for Delia here. MyDH got me it for Christmas a few years ago and it is fairly splattered now showing lots of use! Particularly good for cooking for friends I find
