Review:
"You don't have to be a vegan to drool over the healthy (but hearty) recipes in Lee Watson's new cookbook."--Health.com
"Even as a carnivore, I find contemporary vegan recipes - or plant-based cooking, as it tends to be called nowadays - among the most creative and interesting . . . but I find Lee Watson's Peace & Parsnips especially inspiring, full of original ideas and bold flavours."
--Nigella Lawson
"[Watson] writes with humor and energy about his world travels and the recipes they have inspired. The idea for a combination of warm figs and raw greens was born on a trip to Sancerre, France, but his stroke of brilliance is the decidedly nontraditional addition of what he calls lemon tofu feta."
--Joe Yonan, The Washington Post
"Delicious, delectable, appetizing, flavorful, mouthwatering, scrumptious and tasty are all words for Watson's first book, chock-full of interesting information, recipes, and ideas for both novice and experienced cooks. . . . Every dish is wonderfully and colorfully displayed by photographs, assuring that they tantalize the eye and the taste buds."--Booklist
"[Watson] sets out to prove that tasty vegan food isn't an oxymoron."--Publishers Weekly

"With a fresh perspective on vegan cooking, this unusual tome can increase the breadth of most collections."--Library Journal
"Filled with 200 vibrant, appealing plant-based recipes."--VegNews magazine

--Del Sroufe, author of the New York Times-bestselling Forks Over Knives--The Cookbook
"With vibrant imagery and abundant creativity, Lee takes us on a rich adventure that proves that clean, vegan eating is anything but boring. Peace & Parsnips is a true celebration of plant-based possibilities, and the 'life' these foods bring to our lives."
--Heather Crosby, author of YumUniverse: Infinite Possibilities for a Gluten-Free, Plant-Powerful Lifestyle and founder of YumUniverse.com
