More-with-Less Cookbook25th Anniversary Edition Book one in the World Community Cookbook series by Doris Janzen Longacre |
|
With over 800,000 copies in print, the More-with-Less Cookbook has become the favorite cookbook of many families. Full of recipes from hundreds of contributors, More-with-Less gives suggestions "on how to eat better and consume less of the world’s limited food resources."
More-with-Less Cookbook has not only changed how people eat, but their entire approach to life has reflected this more-with-less philosophy. In fact, more-with-less has become an integral part of our daily language.
Here are a few of the amazing testimonies we have received:
"I have used this cookbook for worship program ideas, especially in relation to cultures beyond our own. In study groups and for meditations, I’ve found it an excellent source of ‘nugget thoughts’ packed with ‘nutrition for the soul.’"--Lois C. Shank, Hagerstown, Md.
"As I turn the pages of my More-with-Less Cookbook, the spots and stains and drips and smears tell me the value of a particular recipe. I call it my ‘scratch and sniff’ cookbook."-- Marlene Harder Bogard, Newton, Kan.
"What do you say about a cookbook that changed your life? Thank you, More-with-Less, for 25 years of good food and the education that came with it."--Teresa Reimers, Ozamiz, Philippines
"The philosophy of More-with-Less has become integral to my family—who we are and how we live."--LaVonne Platt, Newton, Kan.
"More-with-Less Cookbook became my food bible, not only for its recipes but for its philosophy. I see it as a survival manual!"--Shirlee Kohler Yoder, Harrisonburg, Va.
"More-with-Less has been much more than just a cookbook—it has been a valuable resource for learning about nutritious eating. It has challenged us and called us to live more responsibly."--Sue Shantz, St. Jacobs, Ont.
This 25th anniversary edition features a new foreword along with the original collection of recipes—spiced with anecdotes, comments, and tips gleaned from 25 years of cooking More-with-Less.
