Synopsis:

Healthy food has now become gourmet food and Colin Spencer's new book offers everyone the chance to have stylish, exquisite meals and always eat wisely.
We all know we should eat less saturated fats, less sugars, less salt, but don't know how much we should cut down. This book shows in practice what it could mean. By giving seasonal menus for one week it shows the balance between grains and pulses, between fish, game, vegetables and fruit. It also shows that a healthy diet does not mean a complete rejection of butter, cream, salt and sugar, but a sensible use of these ingredients in varied and well planned meals.
The types of meals we should eat in different seasons are radically different; good food always depends on the freshest produce. Colin Spencer's recipes are imaginative and mouth-watering-īsalmon steaks baked in lettuce leaves for summer, roast pheasant with quinces for autumn; avocado, papaya and smoked tofu salad or black bean and ginger soup for winter hint at the variety ofhis dishes. There are wonderful breads, breakfast cereals, snacks and appetizers too.
Each day's menu has suggestions for a simple breakfast and lunch and a three course supper. Weekend dinner parties and brunches are catered for and there are seasonal weeks for the working cook with delicious quick, nutritional recipes. Feast for Health naturally provides the right food for slimmers because it is sensible and enables you to keep to the weight that is right for you.
With this book every meal will be nutritionally beneficial and a gourmet celebration.
