About this deal

Remove from the oven, add the spinach and carefully stir it through so it wilts a little in the heat. Serve. After one hour, when you are happy that the lamb is tender, stir in the cauliflower florets and lentils, and add a little more water if necessary. Simmer the curry uncovered for 25 minutes, or until the cauliflower is tender. I love being playful. Exercise doesn’t have to be serious. But it was very tiring making the series because of Covid. I had to film with each child separately because of social distancing rules.

I became successful because my workouts were 20 minutes long and my recipes 15 minutes. I wanted to show people that they can lead a healthy life with minimal effort. With 100 healthy, tasty, simple recipes to feed the whole family, this book is sure to provide new favourite go-to meals for speedy suppers, celebrations and everything in between. Each recipe is specially designed to please every family member, leaving you all feeling healthy, happy and satisfied.I’ve never been overweight. I was a skinny child who loved PE and sport. I used exercise as a coping mechanism…

Let’s face it, breakfast tends to be the most rushed and least inspired meal of the day (mainly due to most of us being time-poor and over-tired). In fact, according to a recent YouGov study, fewer than half (49 per cent) of us actually eat breakfast seven days a week – with 13 per cent skipping it every day. I used to think if I tried drugs, I’d become an addict. It frightened me. I suppose I am addicted to social media… and to helping people. I’m very purpose-driven and get a buzz out of that. I’m obsessed with doing more content, more videos, going to other countries. I found I wanted to try only about half of the recipes listed either because they were not to my taste (if you love fish and beetroot you are on to a winner as they are featured frequently) or because I anticipated having difficulty getting some of the ingredients - banana shallots and carvolo nero for example. I also wanted more context to some of the dishes - what is a shakshuka and what culture is it from? Whilst it's good to get the children involved in food preparation and cooking from a young age and this book sets out to do this, it's not quite as family-friendly as I'd hoped it could be. Like I said at the beginning the ingredients are too adult, though I do think my family would enjoy the Super-simple Rosemary Lamb Stew.Preheat your oven to 190°C (fan 170°C/gas mark 5). When the oven is hot, pour the oil into a roasting tray and place into the oven for 10 mins. It's got some delicious recipes which I am excited to try but it definitely loses points on being accessible and on being a cookbook I'll refer to frequently. Joe says: "Gnocchi is becoming my new favourite carb source. I can’t work out if it’s a potato or a pasta but I don’t care because it tastes so good. The kids and adults will all enjoy this one." Joe says: "This is one of those meals that is well worth the wait. It tastes incredible and everything gets thrown in the same tray." He’s won legions of fans with his philosophy 'eat more, exercise less', and even more new followers with his live PE lessons, but did you know he also does cookbooks?

These are all recipes that can be easily reproduced and adapted for busy lifestyles and I will definitely be trying some - the beetroot and chocolate cake in particular! Most of the recipes have a colour photograph to accompany them. The recipes use metric measurements and come with easy-to-follow instructions. Included for each recipe is the preparation time, cooking time, and how many it serves (mostly for 2 adults and 2 small children). Some of the other recipes are able to be frozen too alongside those included in the Big batch section. The Celebrations recipes are unusual. They seem more in keeping with middle-class party food, courgette fries, marmite & spring onion straws or avocado mint choc chip ice cream.Weekday breakfasts can be a bit of a myth when you've snoozed your alarm and have a Zoom call in ten minutes. With thanks to NetGalley and Pan Macmillan Bluebird for a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.

Bring to the boil, then take the pan off the heat and stir in the mustard powder, parmesan and chopped parsley. Season with salt and pepper. Whilst not all of the recipes appeal to me, a large percentage do. I’d say there’s something for everyone. There are plenty of recipes in different sections: speedy suppers, bung it in the oven, on the hob, big batch cooking, meat free, cooking with kids, celebrations and a number of ‘Cook’s Tips’. I don’t have any children [yet] but I’d still eat pretty much everything in here [the book]. I found it very easy to navigate my way through the book. The recipes are easy to follow, with clear cooking instructions, and I really appreciate the accompanying photographs and illustrations so that I can see what the end result should look like. The family photographs are beautiful and add a colourful, personal and cosy feel to the book. I also thought they were entertaining and they made me smile. Filled with swaps to cater to all tastes and ideas for involving the kids when you’re cooking, this flexible cookbook will soon become your family favourite.Tip the drained gnocchi and kale into the pan and gently stir everything together. Tip the mixture into a baking dish, sprinkle the breadcrumbs all over the top and then slide it into the oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until the breadcrumbs are golden.
