 Veg InVeg In is crammed with simple, healthy, vegetarian alternatives to your favourite takeaway meals. The 100 recipes in this book were inspired by my favourite international dishes. Veg In includes an abundance of recipes for delicious dips and drinks, scrumptious side dishes, exotic main course and dreamy desserts. No need for a passport or a drive in the car. Take your tastebuds around the world on a gastronomic journey without leaving your front door! This is takeaway - DIY style. We often think we can't be bothered or it's quicker to get a takeaway but with some very simple planning and a few essential ingredients in the pantry, cooking these recipes is not only easy but empowering. What's more - there are no mysterious ingredients - you know what you are eating! Veg In is divided into ten chapters - Indian, Greek, Chinese, Japanese, Malaysian, Middle Eastern, Mexican, Pizza, Spuds and Burgers. And the best vegetarian dishes from these cultures and cuisines are the focus. It also provides suggestions for themed dinners and kid's parties - all very achievable, healthy and economical. Colorful photographs and quirky illustrations complement the irresistible recipes. Available at Angus and Robertson, Collins, Dymocks and lots of independent bookstores - or purchase a copy online.  GREEN - Modern Vegetarian recipes, was published by Hardie Grant in 2002 and was a sell-out success. About GREENWith Flip Shelton's GREEN, you'll never look at asparagus or pumpkin in the same way again. Flip combines a thoroughly modern approach to vegetarian food with an eclectic blend of bold and assertive international flavours. With over 160 fresh and innovative vegetarian recipes, GREEN celebrates nature's finest ingredients, offering updates of old favourites, and recipes for the food we like to eat today, taking influences from Indian, Chinese and Mediterranean cultures. Beautifully photographed by Greg Elms and with recipes that will have you saying "I can do that!", GREEN takes vegetarian cookery from hippy to hip and is certain to become an essential ingredient in every modern kitchen. Vegetarian food has long been seen as the dumpy younger sister of its more glamorous carnivorous sibling. Now, in the shape of hip new cookery writer Flip Shelton, vegetarian cookery is whipping off its glasses, shaking its hair loose and hitting the food scene in a big way. What the media said about GREEN"Flip Shelton is definitely with it. A young Melbournian woman who runs in triathlons as well as running her own publicity business, she's the model of the confident, forward-looking, unfanatical vegetarian, as happy to eat the occasional fluffy choc-omelette for an indulgent breakfast as a virtuous tempeh-kombu combo or a cashew and celery soup. This is an easy, breezy, approachable book with light-hearted text and some good, quick ideas for health-conscious home cooks." "Ms Shelton - blonde, attractive, startling healthy in appearance, the antithesis of the stereotypical anemic vegetarian...may well end up being something of a white knight ...her obvious love of food will win a lot of us over, if only to more meat-free meals each week." 
Flip has written five kids' books published by Rigby Heinemann including "What a Great Idea", "Animal House", "Billy's Secret", "Tim's Pumpkin" and "Making the News".  Dear Jack, published by Random House in 2000, is a collection of break up letters by famous and infamous Australians. Flip edited this with her good mate Kate Langbroek. |
