I found this great bread cookbook at the library - Artisan Bread in Five Minutes a Day.
It's not strictly veg*n, but has a lot of veg*n recipes.
It is an amazing method to make delicious homemade bread with very little work or time investment - no kneading, and the dough is on hand whenever you want to have fresh bread.
Check it out, and see what you think.
I have no personal interest in this (I know it sounds like I must be the author's mother or something) - but I'm just so amazed by how easy this is and how great the bread turns out, that I couldn't resist sharing.
Check it out!

Wow, I'm delighted with the personal reply.
I made my first loaf on Saturday, and served it for lunch. My husband said, "I'd rather have this than cake!" - which of course echoes the sentiments of your grandmother in the book's introduction.
By Saturday night, I was making a trip to the grocery for another bag of flour, so we could make more!
I'm really enjoying having artisan-style bread at home - for less than 50 cents a loaf, instead of the $4. we usually pay at the bakery - and fresh and warm, besides.
I'm amazed how easy it is, and have been emailing friends and encouraging them to get the book, too.
I have my next loaf rising in the kitchen right now. And, it really didn't take any more than the 5 minutes promised to get it there!
Thanks for writing such a wonderful cookbook! ;)b Best wishes in all your work!
I just checked the book out on Amazon and added it to my wishlist. Now if I only had a working oven, LOL! It looks like a GREAT book! Thanks for sharing. :)
