Almost Meatless gets love from Publishers Weekly

Lynn Andriani of Publishers Weekly today dropped a cookbook-centric addendum to PW's roundup of the best books of 2009, and Almost Meatless (Ten Speed), from local writers Joy Manning and Tara Mataraza Desmond, got a nod as a great "meat isn't everything" resource:

Manning and Desmond want to help Americans compose meals that are both tasty and filling without having a slab of meat as the overbearing star ingredient. They do an admirable job, with a burger recipe wherein black beans and bulgur are mashed together with a minimum of ground beef to make a patty that is full-size, fully delicious and less meaty; a recipe for gyros using a small amount of lamb amped up with tzatziki sauce and fava beans fragrant with lemon, garlic and fresh herbs; and other great dishes.
