Here are some of my favorite websites for healthy recipes
http://www.fatfreevegan.com/
http://veganlunchbox.blogspot.com/ ( her latest post has a review of  
a new book, "Dairy Free Made easy").  Jennifer has also just  
published a great recipe book.

Cookbooks I can't be without:

- Greens, Glorious Greens by Johnna Albi
http://www.amazon.com/Greens-Glorious-Great-Tasting-Super-Healthy- 
Beautiful/dp/0312141084/sr=8-1/qid=1171042713/ 
ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-1869452-6366566?ie=UTF8&s=books

Greens, glorious Greens is my all time favorite cook book. I've not  
had a single flop from this book.  I make changes to the recipes  
because I water saute and don't use salt. Also, I don't like mustard  
greens so if  a recipe calls for mustard greens I use kale.

The Daily Bean by Suzanna Caciola White
http://www.amazon.com/Daily-Bean-Creative-Breakfast-Dinner/dp/ 
0895260719/sr=1-1/qid=1171042944/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-1869452-6366566? 
ie=UTF8&s=books

Again, I amend for salt and oil.   My kids love the Black Bean  
brownie recipe from this book.  I add a cup of chocolate chips which  
makes it gooier.

have to add "Vice Cream" by Jeff Rogers
http://www.amazon.com/Vice-Cream-Sinfully-Delicious-Dairy-Free/dp/ 
1587611996/sr=1-1/qid=1171043159/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/102-1869452-6366566? 
ie=UTF8&s=books

there is nothing healthy about the recipes in this book, but oh, my  
goodness, he has some great "ice cream" recipes.

I tend to stick to sorbets and make one most nights for dinner.

They are a synch if you have a strong blender like a VitaMix.
My basic recipe is:
- I rehydrate 2 or 3 pieces of unsugared, sulphur free dried  
pineapple in a bit of non dairy milk, water or fruit juice (I use  
whichever I have on hand)
- Now I blend this mixture with a banana till everything is smooth.
- Then I add frozen fruit of my choice, using the tamper to push down  
the frozen fruit.

You end up with a "soft serve" type sorbet.

Black cherry and blue berry makes a wonderful combo.  otherwise  
strawberry or mango on their own make great sorbets as well.

When I am making it just for my children I add some raw cashews to  
the banana mixture and blend until they are well pureed.  That adds  
some good fats to the mix and gives it an even smoother mouthfeel.

I make a topping for deserts by mixing equal quantities of a non  
dairy milk, raw cashews and raisins (Half as much as the nuts).  THen  
blend until well smooth and refrigerate.  It is very, very good,  
especially on baked apples.

you can also find a lot of good recipes that are dairy free at the
