The Photo Cookbook – Vegetarian presents a variety of delicious vegetarian recipes that are all easy to prepare. Included are meatless classics such as wild mushroom omelet or potato gnocchi with walnut pesto, but also exquisite concoctions such as roasted root soup with ginger & crème fraîche, warm red lentil salad with goat cheese, spiced parsnip gratin with ginger cream, or red cabbage stuffed with mushrooms, nuts & rice, to name just a few.

The app is like a private cooking class in your own kitchen with an experienced chef who explains the preparation process. Stunning photographs, elegantly displayed in high resolution on your iPad, illustrate every step.

Every recipe starts with a photograph of all the ingredients used in the process. This way you can check at one glance whether you have all the groceries on hand before preparing the dish.

The cooking instructions are easy, clear, and concise. Along with the pictures, this helps novice cooks and experts alike remember even the small details. Each recipe is concluded by an illustration of the finished dish, complete with a serving suggestion.

The app contains 60 recipes, divided into four chapters: “soups & appetizers” “salads & light meals”, “family meals” and “special occasions”. The recipes in each chapter are illustrated in four columns on an overview page. Chapters can be scrolled vertically, so that you can play with your choices and visually decide on a dish to prepare.

Features at a glance:
- 60 vegetarian recipes and over 500 high-resolution photos
- All recipes are easy to prepare
- All recipes displayed in professional step-by-step photographs
- Search function for ingredients and recipes
- Ingredient lists can be emailed
- Mark the best recipes as favorites. Simply tap the bottom right corner of a recipe on the overview page
- You can add your own notes to recipes
- Ingredients provided with consumer information (retrieved with a tap on the respective ingredient)

The app follows the concept of “The Photo Cookbook – Quick & Easy”, which is a worldwide success.

The content of this app is also available as a book by Parragon Books: “Vegetarian – Step-by-Step“.

Pros and cons of The Photo Cookbook – Vegetarian app for iPhone and iPad

The Photo Cookbook – Vegetarian app good for

Beautiful images, clear instructions. For a visual learner like me this is ideal. I only hope they offer more recipes in updates, because there werent very many (approx. 50), some of which were repeats of those offered in the free version quick and easy. Beautiful product, but not enough of it.
Well done, nice and tasty recipes. It lacks some nutritional values for the meals though.

Some bad moments

Ive tried to download it three times, and every time its in Dutch. I need it to be in English, please
I always look forward to the next installment of The Photo Cookbook series because I know its going to be another high quality app filled with DELISH and interesting recipes. This latest installment is great whether youre a vegetarian or just like me, one who really likes veggies!!! Once again, ditter.projektagentur GmbH has not disappointed and I cant wait to see what they come up with next!!
What a great app! Ive never used some of the ingredients, so having photos of them is really good. If youre a new vegetarian like me, this is a good way to start off with implement recipes.
The best app for people who appreciate great images and recipes. Cant wait to use it!!!!
First let me star off by saying I dont write reviews EVER but I had to write one for this app! Im a newbie vegetarian, and am really trying to eat healthier in the New Year! This app is amazing on the iPad!!! Even when you first open it the pictures are GREAT and I love how it sorted by categories. It is really well thought out and I also like how it shows you all the ingredients you need and step by step photos of how the food is supposed to look! You know what they say sometimes you EAT with your EYES, but this app really makes you want to make every recipe they have on there! I hope they come out with more than 60 recipes because I will be sure to get that app as well!!!
The display is amazing! Not enough recipes compared to other apps and no ratings on recipes, so would not recommend buying this unless they expand it to be comparable to other apps.
