Gordon Ramsay's Healthy Appetite

He's tackled fast food - now Gordon Ramsay has set his sights on our expanding waistlines, creating delicious new recipes that are big on taste but not on calories.

Healthy Appetite is Gordon Ramsay's tenth cookbook and follows the success of Gordon Ramsay's Fast Food (published by Quadrille, May 2007). With his unique style, energy and enthusiasm, Gordon shows readers how to prepare an extensive array of dishes that not only taste great but are packed with fresh, nutritious ingredients cooked in a healthy way. Healthy Appetite takes its inspiration from the latest series of the hit television show The F Word.

Gordon Ramsay, marathon runner and keen advocate of a varied but balanced diet, presents 100 recipes which will help contribute towards an overall healthy lifestyle. Gordon rejects the idea that healthy food should be dull and monotonous and instead demonstrates recipes which are both delicious and easy to prepare.

With photography by Lisa Barber, Healthy Appetite contains a variety of dishes divided into seven chapters ranging from Breakfasts to Working lunches, Kids food and Entertaining. Novice and more experienced cooks alike will be able to create recipes such as Mango and Smoked Chicken Salad, Griddle Squid with Roasted Peppers and Wild Mushroom Risotto with Baked Courgettes.

The book offers recipes tailored to meet a hectic, modern lifestyle and demonstrates how easy it is to maintain a healthy, balanced and interesting diet on a daily basis.
