Excellent cookbook for healthy eating! by Anni Long (Mill Valley, CA) 5 Stars
July 07, 2009
Recommended by my Yoga and Ayurvedic teacher, this cookbook has all the guidelines you need for healthy eating. You can combine this kind of diet with your favorite foods, including meat, fish and poultry if you are not vegetarian, and still reap many benefits.

hands down best Ayurvedic cookbook! by Damara Shanmugan (La Mesa, CA) 5 Stars

I love this cookbook! The instructions are specific and simple. Out of all my Ayurvedic cookbooks, I use this one the most. I've made almost every recipe in the book. Dr. and Mrs. Lad are living examples of the benefits of the Ayurvedic life style.

Very good book to get started with ayurvedic cooking by Jennifer Spencer (Texas, USA) 5 Stars
November 13, 2007
I am a serious student of ayurveda with one lifelong problem. I CAN'T COOK!! This book is easy enough to follow to tell you what to eaet and how to get there. It's so easy to follow and I made the most yummy Kitchari right off the bat! I love it and I'm so inspired that I'm going to get more Ayurveda cookbooks and make MORE yummm food after a lifetime of bad cooking. LOL

Standard Indian vegetarian recipes ! by kj287 (Dallas, Texas USA) 2 Stars
October 03, 2007
I was so impressed by Vasant Lad's "Complete Ayurvedic Home Remedies" book, I wanted to check out this book to incorporate Ayurvedic cooking. I was disappointed after I received and reviewed the book. This is a standard south Indian vegetarian cook book with an introduction to Ayurveda. So, if you are an Indian you might know most if not all of the recipes already. Even if you are not from India and want to learn ayurvedic style Indian vegetarian cooking, there are a dozen other cooking books which might be better than this. The recipes are not in detail, they are all very short. You have to go through some trial and error to perfect these recipes in my opinion.

Another great book from Dr. Lad. His books are so informative and helpful and really produce dramatic results. Although mostly foods that are not usual, the recipes are simple and the soups and the rice dishes are tasty.
