‘An engaged and encouraging invitation to think differently and eat wonderfully’ Nigella Lawson

‘Gizzi’s recipes are creative, seriously satisfying and packed full of flavour.’ BBC Good Food

Over 100 recipes for real good food – that just happens to be good for you, and the planet.

This book is full of practical steps and advice that can help push you towards living and eating more sustainably. Gizzi wants to investigate the real carbon footprint of food and look at the reality of what we need to support our environment, our agricultural industry and bodies. She uses this information to create accessible and attainable recipes for readers.

Using the principles of eating seasonally, less meat and more plants, eating root-to-shoot or nose-to-tail, and using clever techniques to maximise flavour, Gizzi will give us recipes that don’t compromise on flavour or satisfaction, but which are better for us, and the planet. Thoughtful, insightful, but above all a delicious collection of recipes that show how good food doesn’t have to cost the earth.

This is very much a handbook on how to shop, eat and cook, full of recipes that are a celebration of life.
