Cookbook author and NYTimes food journalist Mark Bittman "wowed" Matt Lauer and the audience on the Today show today with a few simple vegan dishes that he 
prepared right there on the show. They look amazing! He cooked up a barley mushroom risotto, bean and burgers, and a tantalizing sweet potato and coconut stew. Missed it? Not to worry, the recipes are online here:

Not to worry, the recipes are online here:Even though he's not vegetarian, Bittman has been a big advocate of reducing meat consumption, and eating what he calls a "less meatarian" or "semi-vegan" diet, and people, including the Today Show, seem to be listening in droves. He's also the author of one of my favorite vegetarian cookbooks, How to Cook Everything Vegetarian. Super cool!
