Publishers Text

Flexitarian (n) 1. A person who consumes mainly vegetarian food but occasionally eats chicken or fish.

Today a single family can include strict vegetarians and passionate meat lovers. When company shows up, the situation gets even more complicated. How can one meal please everybody without driving the cook crazy? The award-winning author, caterer, and personal chef to the stars Peter Berley has the answer: flexible, exciting menus designed to satisfy vegetarians and nonvegetarians simultaneously. Composed of two or three simple dishes, the forty seasonally arranged menus are of several kinds.

  • "Convertible" meals that can be prepared with a vegetable and/or meat protein: Crispy Pressed Chicken/Tofu with Garlic and Mint
  • Hearty vegetarian meals to please the staunchest meat lover: Saffron Lasagna with Vegetables and Gruyère
  • Meals featuring fish, poultry or, occasionally, red meat, with ample vegetable sides that can double as mains: Grilled Harissa Shrimp with Fresh Corn Polenta All of the 150 dishes in the book can be mixed and matched.
