That is no small feat for me and my family.
I was admittedly skeptical purchasing this but much to my surprise these were delicious recipes. They require minimal prep and my family enjoyed them all. My daughter now loves "smoothie Sunday." I love that there are also vegan and keto meal plan options.
A standout recipe was the mushroom risotto. I've tried much more complicated recipes from more sophisticated cookbooks and they never turned out. This was simple and straightforward and a delicious risotto. There is also a salmon gremolata that takes like something you would order at a nice restaurant. We even use the gremolata recipe for other meals now.
Very happy with this and how it's helped us move forward on our health goals.

It caters for most dietary requirements. I’m trying to be whole food, plant based and gluten free and have already tried a few of the recipes from the vegan plan. They did not disappoint!! Even the odd sounding Fennel, Leek and Pear soup - which I would never have chosen in a million years but I had a fennel bulb going to waste from a veg box order. It was lush!!
Does the ‘diet’ work on inflammation??
Well, I have Fibromyalgia, Hypermobility Syndrome and Osteoarthritis. I went from not being able to get out of bed for long because of the immense pain, at the beginning of the week, to getting in my 10k steps walking round the town on Friday with MUCH less pain!!
I’d recommend it to anyone with pain or even those who don’t because the recipes are delicious and use readily available ingredients.
