About the Author

Dr Preeya Alexander is a practicing GP in Melbourne, mother of two and author of Eat, Sleep, Play, Love and the children’s book Rainbow Plate. She has motivated many to get cooking at home by sharing simple, adaptable, veggie-packed recipes on her social media platform and blog. Preeya is a TV presenter; she has hosted two Catalyst episodes on the ABC and co-hosted two seasons of Good Chef Bad Chef where she was able to combine practical health tips with a solid dose of humour. Preeya always delivers achievable, nutritious, yummy recipes (that anyone can knock up and enjoy – from infants on the start of their solids journey to those with food allergies) with plenty of laughs and medical golden nuggets along the way. Not only will you create delicious meals that work every time and that can be tweaked to suit any need (she shares her tips and tricks), you will also gain a deeper understanding of why what we eat is so critical when it comes to our mental and physical health and how the little things you do every day with the food you eat can make such a big difference to the body and brain.
