I'm a vegetarian on the way to veganism. I'm wondering if any of you would recommend me your absolutely must read or own vegan cookbooks and books?

Thanks!

I really like Veganmonicon and also I've heard really good things about Vegan Cupcakes Take over the World (if you're into desserts at all!)

Oh, cupcakes!! Yes I am lol. Thank you!

yes! Anything by Isa Chandra Maskowtiz (sp?)

You can also check out her website theppk.com

On top of that, I'd recommend Diet for a New America by John Robbins.

He prevents a very convincing, well thought out argument.  It's also a little more aged, so its not looking at veganism as just a diet fad.

"Complete Vegetarian" by Susie Ward is a big beautiful full color cookbook that I recommend.  If you expect to feel deprived by going meatless, you need a cookbook that makes vegetable dishes look irresistible!
