This is a no-nonsense guide to producing delicious, nutritious meals. Paul O'Callaghan (Calso) came late to the discovery that real food can be produced with very little effort and be tastier and healthier than the convenience foods he'd survived on up until then. He is now making up for lost time and decided to spread the word by establishing a blog, Calso Cooks from the Sustainable Larder. He has an extensive following and has made many contacts in local and national media and is keen to share his brand of hearty, rustic cooking and his enthusiasm for the mental and physical benefits of real food with the wider community. The book includes lots of ideas for breakfasts, lunches, dinners, desserts and treats including: cherry tomato and herb heart-healthy omlette; courgette carbonara; pork, beetroot and orange salad; beef and Guinness pie; fruity oat-crusted chicken; smoked haddock lasagne; After Eight cheescake; and guilt-free panna cotta.
