Do you want to eat more plants? This book has the answer. It's your guide to making healthy eating effortless, cutting down on ultra-processed food, and enjoying 30 different plants each week with deliciously simple recipes. Plus adaptable meal plans and shopping lists to make nutritious home cooking a seamless part of your busy life.

With an overwhelming amount of health and wellness advice, how do you find the balance, peace of mind and confidence to take control of nourishing your body whilst juggling the endless other to-do lists that life throws at you? Eating well isn't about chasing perfection, and what works is often the simplest solution. These recipes balance deliciousness, variety, nutrition and ease, so you can enjoy fresh, wholesome food without the stress.

In this book, you'll find eight weeks of meal plans designed to make healthy eating effortless. Each one comes with a shopping list for six dinners and two lunches, giving you plenty of flexibility to adapt to your routine. There's no pressure to follow them exactly; swap recipes to suit your taste, skip meals if you're out, or freeze extras from your batch cook. The goal is to help you enjoy delicious, nourishing meals while effortlessly getting 30 (or more!) different plants a week into your diet and cutting down on ultra-processed foods. It's about real food, real flavour, and a way of eating that feels satisfying and sustainable.

These recipes are some of the best I've created and I can't wait for you to try them, from Fajita Traybakes and Tahini Miso Noodles to one-pan Green Herby Beans, Crispy Cauliflower Rice Bowls and 15-minute Curries.

It's all goodness, no fuss.
