I am a little concerned with the amount of nuts in a few of the recipies with regard to the fat content (not bothered about weight just health). Would you care to comment on this, when you have time, i'd be interested in your opinion. Thanks! From Russell: Hi Lisa, for me, eating recipes with nuts isn't something I'll do masses of. Most of the food I create is for special occasions, so it isn't part of my daily intake. I think it's important to remember that nuts offer a different type of fat than cooked, saturated fats; but also that doesn't mean it's a good idea to eat handfuls everyday. I definitely notice a difference when I've eaten too much fat, even raw fat, such as avocados...I get that fat "hangover" feeling. I've also been on the other end of the spectrum in my search for the perfect diet for me, and eaten very little fat. I found this very hard going and found myself feeling very unsatiated by anything, so it wasn't very sustainable. I feel that to begin with someone may need, and be able to get away with, more nuts. But as they progress they may find themselves relying less on nuts, and even being less tolerant of the effect of even raw fat. Hope that helps.

It took a while to make and it was well worth the effort! I'm glad I used less salt than it said though, because I still found it a bit salty. Tastes even better than when I used to make cooked vegan lasagne. Nice work! Wow, that was delicious. It took a while to make and it was well worth the effort!

The ones in oil usually have other ingredients in there that won't do you any good whatsoever. Hope that helps Hi Donna,
