- This recipe is my own variation of a couple slaw recipes found in:
- The New York Times New Natural Foods Cookbook by Jean Hewitt
- Although this book is not exclusively vegetarian, the preponderance of the
- recipes are vegetarian, and, thusfar, seem to be quite good. It is a very nice
- book for anyone attempting to make the transition to a vegetarian or
- near-vegetarian diet. Just my opinion, of course.
