A cookbook to suit the whole family's differing wants and needs, The Flexible Family Cookbook is full of simple and delicious recipes to keep the whole family happy. Jo Pratt provides flexible adaptations for each recipe to account for allergies, intolerances, and lifestyle choices.

Traybakes and one-pot roasts make for easy and convenient timesavers, whilst scrumptious puds and simple bakes help get smaller hands involved in the cooking.

Over 75 recipes, each with flexible options, covering:

  • Breakfast and Brunch
