This book was created to follow the seasons, letting them guide us naturally to the food that will nourish and support our bodies throughout the year. Each season features a poem, a recipe, a fermented recipe and a foraged recipe. It's truly a delightful little book that can help you gently connect with nature and yourself. Something that many of us will greatly benefit from.
We live in such a difficult world these days, so much loneliness, financial hardship and comparison on social media, ultra-processed junk food, addiction, so many people have simply lost their way, and poor mental health impacts so many of us. Which is why I wanted to do something to help. All the profits from this book are going to support SAMH, a new charity drop-in centre in Glasgow, with plans to open many more. Access to professional help and a calming place to spend time without judgement in beautiful surroundings, designed by Scotlands Home of the Year judge Anna Campbell Jones.
Improve your gut health and your mental health will also improve, one step at a time. This is largely about eating more plants and aiming for 30 plant based diversity points per week, not difficult with my plant based delicious recipes!
Fermented foods are the icing on the cake, containing both probiotics and prebiotics, so do be sure to try my recipes! I can guarantee you will love them and so will your wee gut microbes! They are cheap and simple to make at home so long as you follow a few simple rules.
