National Salad Month

For people who eat meat on a regular basis, becoming a vegetarian means eating (boring) salads every day but this could not be more far from the truth.

A vegetarian lifestyle and diet consists of colorful fruits and vegetables, meaty mushrooms and protein enriched lentils and beans. Creative dishes and rich flavors come together in the new cookbook, Vegeterranean: Italian Vegetarian Cooking from the recipes collected from the renowned kitchen of Umbria's celebrated Country House Montali.

Chapters on first and second courses, as well as starters, sides, breads, desserts, and even breakfast round out this comprehensive work.
