Antony Makes It Easy - Antony Worrall Thompson
Once, children, there was but one cookery programme on the TV and it was called, rather unimaginatively, Food and Drink. Presided over by Queen Jilly Goolden and a couple of other queens too, it ended in 2000 and was lost to the mists of time. Today it all looks rather quaint, like footage of pre Second World War sporting events.
The 100 Foods You Should Be Eating - Glen Matten
Chirpily written packed full of useful information, clearly explained, and with 100 tempting recipes, this unassuming book can hold its own with the glossy fantasies we’re more used to seeing. It has practicality at its heart and it wants to help you look after yours. What’s not to like about that?
Zilli Light. Healthy Eating - Aldo Zilli
Do you feel guilty about the amount you ate at Xmas? If you were the family that I saw in Sainsbury’s with a trolley full of nothing but cakes and crisps you should be, but I suspect Foodepedia readers tend to always eat rather better than most. Aldo Zilli offers Italian food that won't make you fat.
