The PETA Celebrity Cookbook is more than a collection of recipes, it is an entertaining cookbook filled with color photographs of various actors, musicians, and other well-known people, along with their recipes. Featured throughout the book are interesting and informative "Did you know?" facts about vegetarianism, health, and the environment.
Some of the celebrity recipes featured include: Tiffani Thiessen's Mediterranean Muesli, Jackie Chan's Eggplant "Steaks," Chrissie Hynde's Zesty Blueberry Poppyseed Cupcakes, Sir Paul McCartney's "All You Need is Avocado" Soup, Bob Barker's Savory Italian Bruschetta, Alicia Silverstone's Steamy, Creamy Artichoke Dip, and Montel Williams's Heart-Healthy Wild Rice with Walnuts and Raisins. Recipes are divided into sections for breakfasts, lunches, appetizers, side dishes, entrees, and desserts.
This book also doubles as a book of quotations. An introduction by James Cromwell, and sections on "How This Book May Save Your Life" by Dr. Neal Barnard and "Animal-Friendly Grocery Shopping" complement the recipes, facts, and quotations. The PETA Celebrity Cookbook is a fun book with compassionate, nutritious recipes and more.
