'I thought I didn't need another cookbook, but this is a must-have' Joanna Blythman, award-winning food writer
'I won't just be recommending this book to my patients, I'll be recommending it to all my family and friends, and using it myself. Essential reading!' Dr. Aseem Malhotra, cardiologist and author of best-selling 'The Pioppi Diet'
'Eat well, enjoy cooking, lose weight and save money. Highly recommended' Dr Andrew Jenkinson, Bariatric Surgeon and author of the Sunday Times Bestseller 'Why We Eat (Too Much)'
In this collection of over 80 recipes, Paleo Canteen founder Ally Houston has teamed up with chef John Meechan to defend the low carb diet against a common misconception: that it's an expensive, restrictive way of eating.
On the contrary, this series of easy-to-follow, versatile dishes and meal ideas showcases healthy eating at its most mouth-watering and affordable. With chapters on everything from slow-roast meat, fish and vegetables, to leftovers, offal, and eggs, as well as useful tips for shopping low carb and introductory material on its nutritional benefits, this first Paleo Canteen cookbook offers proof that you can promote your health without breaking the bank or sacrificing a love of food.
Combining John's career in some of the country's top kitchens, including stints under Yotam Ottolenghi, Sarit Packer and Trish Hilferty, with Ally's personal experience of using low carb to recover his own physical and mental health, 'Low Carb on a Budget' helps demystify the paleo diet by focusing on naturally healthy whole foods and putting appetite, creativity and resourcefulness front and centre with metabolic health. With a foreword by renowned low carb GP David Unwin, and 50p from every sale going to the Public Health Collaboration, there's never been a better opportunity to treat your taste buds, your wallet and your wellbeing in one place.
