Joe's 30 Minute Meals: 100 Quick and Healthy Recipes

Excellent book

Good recipe, ingredients are easy to get. And it’s tasty

I have all three of Joe’s Lean in 15 books and have cooked many of the great recipes dozens of times over. Recently, I bought his latest book: ‘Joe’s 30-minute meals’ which came out earlier this month. There are 100 quick and healthy recipes, a delectable feast for anyone embarking – or continuing – on their weight loss and exercise plan. Realising that some recipes do take longer than 15 minutes to cook, he decided to write a comprehensive book where recipes take a bit more time. After a friendly welcome by Joe, he sets out how the book will work for you, by organising the book by main ingredients: All-Day Breakfast, Chicken, Beef and Pork and so on. After the introduction, he helpfully lists the ingredients you’ll need for your store-cupboard so that you can just choose any recipe and not have to rush out to buy the main ingredients for it. He also lists extras that he loves which just add that little bit more to a recipe. Then you start with All-Day Breakfasts and written in Joe’s usual style of banter, you’re in for a real feast – not only for the eyes with the amazing colour photographs of what your dish should look like – but also with what you’ve prepared. There are some recipes which have vegetarian alternatives, but it is not a vegetarian cook book – you’ll have to wait for December for his vegetarian recipe book to come out. All the meals look fabulous; and if you’re familiar with Joe’s other books, you’ll know that you’re in for a treat when the Master of the Midget Trees puts a meal together. Unlike the Lean in 15 books, there are no work-outs but each recipe is labelled ‘reduced-carb’ or ‘carb-refuel’ so you’ll know which days to eat them on, depending if you’re doing a work out or not. This is a feast for the eyes as well as the belly. It’s a really great book.

Easy to follow recipes especially if u have a busy lifestyle but still want to eat healthy! Highly recommended!

Bought for my daughter who now realises how fast you can actually make tasty food , there are some lovely recipes to enjoy
