Abstract: Recipes for well-balanced vegetarian diets supplied by doctors' wives are presented in a cookbook intended for use by all homemakers. Recipes that seem rich or high in calories can be readily adjusted to reduce calorie and cholesterol intake by reducing the indicated levels of such ingredients as sugar, shortening, eggs, and cream. The recipes are segregated into meal topic areas (e.g., appetizers, salads, entrees, desserts); a separate section includes European, African, Asian, Polynesian recipes. Entree recipes are exclusively vegetarian (cheese and eggs, nuts, pastas, legumes, rice, grains). Herbs and spices, calorie substitutions, measurement conversions and equivalents, tables, a protective diet plan, calorie and protein RDAs for individuals and their contents in various vegetarian foods are provided.
