Speed and good food do go together!

A 'proper meal' doesn't mean a three-course, four-hour cooking job. It can be on the table within twenty minutes of thinking: 'What am I going to cook?' And it doesn't have to involve a microwave oven, a freezer, packets of instant soup or a tin opener.

A 'proper meal' is one that does three things for you: tastes good; provides a suitable number of calories for your build and lifestyle; and gives you the essential nutrients which will keep you feeling fit.

So don't worry if you don't feel like cooking. You can eat healthily and provide for a family without the slightest tinge of guilt, without spending hours over a hot stove.

Here's a book of opportunities for chopping your kitchen work - without losing out on health and enjoyable meals.
