With this book as your guide, you'll really look forward to getting up in the morning. You might even be inspired to set your alarm clock a little eariler than usual. Mollie Katzen has created one of her best books yet (if not the best) in this inspired encyclopedic collection of meatless recipes for breakfasts and brunches. Who knew that the subject of meatless breakfast recipes could be so wide in scope? You'll find over 350 delicious recipes for muffins, omelets, pancakes, homemade protein bars and much, much more.

Many of the recipes can easily stretch beyond the realm of breakfast -- serving as lunch and light supper entrées, sweets and snacks and mid afternoon pick me ups.

Whether you're planning an elegant brunch party, a hearty breakfast for the whole family, or are just looking for a quick, tasty breakfast on the run for one, you'll find inspiration in these pages. But more than just a collection of recipes, this, like all of Mollie's books, contains a lot of the author herself, which means lots of charming illustrations, tips, instructions, cooking, food and nutritional tutorials as well as personal notes, observations and recipe variations.

Recipe Chapters include:
Beverages; Fruit; Grains -- Cereals, Cooked and Cold; Muffins, Biscuits, Breads & Buns; Eggs, Tofu, Scrambles, Quiches & Souffles; Potatoes, Beans, Tempeh & Hashes; Vegetables for breakfast; Griddle Foods -- Pancakes, Waffles, Blintzes, Crepes & French Toast; Yogurt & Cheese; Puddings & Custards; Condiments, Sauces, Toppings & Spreads; Breakfast Bars, Coffee Cakes & Sweet Somethings. Vegetarians rejoice (omnivores will also love this book). Morning just got a whole lot more interesting!
