This is a really useful, informative and inspiring cookbook. It's packed full of interesting information on nutrition and what kind of foods you should be fuelling your body with as an athlete - or just anyone who exercises, really! This isn't just for the elite (of which group I DEFINITELY do not belong!)
The recipes are easy to follow whilst still being inspiring and they all look delicious. Even if you're a hardcore carnivore you'll enjoy these recipes and won't miss the meat, I promise you!
Another important aspect of this book is that the recipes don't usually ridiculously expensive or unusual ingredients - you're bound to have a lot of them in your cupboard or, if not, they're easy to find in the supermarket. The recipes are generally healthy and will leave you feeling satisfied without the guilt that often comes with junk food!
For anyone wanting to go veggie, or just incorporate more veggie recipes into their diet, this is ideal. It's got lovely photos (always important in these kind of books, I think - I like to see what I'm cooking is *supposed* to look like!) and I loved the oil-free cooking section, which I'd never really thought about before. There's also a good range of savoury and sweet recipes depending what you fancy. Highly recommended!
