visit its historic houses and sites every year. For some, a stop at

spring vegetable risotto; sausage & fennel seed pasta with
spinach; spiced apple & plum crumble; rhubarb & ginger
cheesecake. It's not just the classics and favourites that you
might expect, but twists and new takes too - whether it's unusual

scotch egg) or vegetarian and vegan options (chili non-carne; vegan
pasty; vegan chocolate fudge cake). The recipes highlight
seasonality and sustainability throughout - the National Trust's
cafes are at the forefront of both areas.

development. It addresses some of the typical concerns: will your
child get enough energy? Enough protein? All the essential fatty
acids? Enough calcium and vitamin D? As plant-based diets grow in
popularity to help the environment as well as personal health,
Sandra Hood's long experience of working with vegan families is
more relevant than ever.

Beans are easy to grow, easy to cook, delicious, nourishing and
beneficial for us and the planet. Growing your own beans not only
helps you build healthy soil in your garden, it also provides you
with a nutrient-rich diet. Beans can play a role in reducing the
risk of obesity, diabetes, heart disease and cancer - they are good
sources of protein, fibre, folate, iron and potassium - and they
can reduce your carbon footprint and food miles as well! This
fascinating book brings together Susan Young's 10 years of
experimentation with multiple varieties of beans. She clearly
explains how to sow, grow, harvest, dry, store and cook them, and
shares her six 'must grow' varieties. Go on a tasty culinary
journey around the world and discover a range of colourful and
historic beans, from the pink 'Fagiolo di Lamon' of Italy to the
black and white 'Bosnian Pole' bean. Learn which varieties are best
for eating fresh from the pod and those that are best for drying
and storing for later use. Beans offer year-round nutritious meals,
and dried beans can be the star of the show with their fabulous
diversity of flavours, colours and textures.
Today many of us are looking to eat less dairy, meat and fish, as the host of environmental, ethical and health-related reasons for doing so stack up. The concept of not centring every meal around an animal-based protein is well on its way to settling into mainstream society but out there, is a whole middle-ground of home-cooks, somewhere between carnivore and vegan, who are doing their best to reduce meat and fish consumption, but enjoying it on occasion when the urge strikes. For these so-called flexitarians, choices are less about adopting a rigid regime, and more about an organic attempt to eat a mainly plant-based diet.
This timely cookbook is a collection of modern recipes and comfort food classics, all of which feature simple adaptations that can make them suitable for vegans, vegetarians, pescatarians and meat-eaters. No longer will you have to juggle between multiple cookbooks or haphazardly hash together a meaty ending to a recipe depending on your appetite or cravings!

'A simply brilliant book - modern, clever, beautiful and full of
delicious recipes.' Jamie Oliver A modern vegetarian cookbook
packed with quick, healthy and fresh recipes, that fits perfectly
with how we want to eat now. How we want to eat is changing. More
and more people want to cook without meat a couple of nights a
week, or are looking for interesting ideas for dishes for their
vegetarian friends (whilst pushing their own vegetarian repertoire
beyond a red onion and goat's cheese tart or a mushroom risotto).
At the same time we want to eat food that is a little lighter, a
little healthier, a little easier on our pockets, but that won't
have us chopping mountains of veg or slaving over the stove for
hours. Anna Jones is a brilliant young cook and food writer, who
worked with Jamie Oliver for many years. Her first cookbook is a
totally modern take on vegetarian eating - recipes that are
healthy, nourishing, truly tasty and satisfying, introducing new
dishes that are simple to make. Based on how Anna likes to eat day
to day, A Modern Way to Eat covers everything from a blueberry and
amaranth porridge to start the day to a quick autumn root
panzanella or avocado, butterbean and miso salad for lunch; a
tomato and coconut cassoulet, pistachio and squash galette, or
mint, ricotta and courgette polpette for dinner. Packed with
recipes that explore the full breadth of vegetarian ingredients -
different grains, nuts, seeds and seasonal vegetables - and
alternative approaches to cooking that avoid too much dairy or
heavy carbs and gluten, this is a cookbook for how we want to eat
now.
