Low Carb is Lekker Three continues the journey begun by Inè Reynierse in 2015, when her awardwinning cookbook, Low Carb is Lekker, took the country by storm.
Building on the demand for carb-conscious, sugar-free and grain-free meals, Inè’s recipes put the emphasis on nutritionally upgraded, healthy eating. Her dishes don’t require speciality ingredients or expensive food substitutes.

Her dressings, dips, sauces and gluten-free flour mixes form the basis of a superb selection of recipes that will take you from breakfast to dinner and from weekday family meals to weekend entertaining.
With her focus on improving general health and wellbeing, Inè’s recipes will appeal to anyone who wants to put good food on the table every day of the week.
