9. Low Carb for Families: The phrase ‘low carb’ has become the new buzz word, but what exactly does it mean, will it suit you and your family’s lifestyle, and will it be easy to adapt your eating habits to this way of eating? In Low-carb Living for Families, Monique le Roux Forslund answers all these questions and explains why reducing the carbohydrates and simultaneously increasing the consumption of natural, healthy fats is good for you and your family. She also cuts through the jungle of products and information that confront us in the media and on shelves, so that we can find our way to a healthy life of natural foods that will satisfy hunger and banish cravings.

10. Periodic Fasting - Lose Weight, Feel Great, Live Longer: Do you want to lose weight, feel great and live longer, without having to comply with a strict diet? Periodic fasting might be just the thing for you. Studies have shown that eating significantly less for limited periods of time produces better results than sustained dieting and that reducing calorie intake is beneficial for chronic conditions such as diabetes, hypertension and high cholesterol. Periodic Fasting introduces the concept of eating normally for five days, followed by two days of restricted eating (also known as the 5:2 diet). During fasting, the body has a chance to use its inherent healing capacity to restore our health and wellbeing. Unlike many popular diets, periodic (intermittent) fasting puts you in control of what you eat. It's as simple as eating normal, healthy meals on non-fasting days and making sensible choices on fasting days. There are no special diet foods or supplements, and everyone in the family can eat the same meals, making this an ideal weight-loss programme for families with differing nutritional needs. There are guidelines and menu plans for both fasting and non-fasting days, and examples of meals and snacks that make up the 600-calorie limit on fasting days. Sixty tasty and nutritious recipes for breakfasts, lunches and dinners include variations on how to adapt the dishes for fasting days. The recipes and recommendations in Periodic Fasting make it easy to adapt to this eating lifestyle, and your body will thank you.

11. The Book Club Cookbook: Eat Your Words: There are few things that compare to an afternoon curled up with a good book. It is even better if it is followed by a great meal shared with good friends. And the cherry on the top is when, at the end of the gathering, you have a fresh stack of books next to your bed to thrill you for the coming month. But probably the greatest scenario of all is when it was you who hosted a book club, and everything went smoothly: you did not kill yourself during the preparations for the evening and your guests liked your books and loved your food. I hope this book will help you towards that specific state of bliss.
The idea for this collection of recipes started with the premise that not all readers are necessarily confident cooks. Neither are some social people who want to invite a group of friends or family over for a catch-up or special celebration. This book helps you prepare a great meal for your gathering with a bit of planning and without too much stress. For this reason, the emphasis is on dishes that can be prepared and often completed before the guests arrive.

12. Weskuskos: Weskuskos bied 'n verskeidenheid eenvoudige, dog heerlike geregte, eie aan die Suid-Afrikaanse Kaapse Weskus, maar enersyds onlosmaaklik verweef met die geskiedenis en lewens van haar gemeenskappe. Toegevoeg tot die vanselfsprekende seekosgeregte, is nog smaaklikhede - van eenvoudige sop tot feestelike nageregte en verrassings vir 'onweersdae'. Soos baie ander vissersgemeenskappe, werk pelagiese vissermanne aan die Suid-Afrikaanse Kaapse Weskus vir fabrieke en word slegs op kommissiebasis betaal. Aangesien visvang tot seisoene beperk is en mans normaalweg die broodwinners is, is armoede 'n algemene gesig. In 1994 is 'n visvangkwota in Suid-Afrika ingestel om die visbedryf deur werkskepping en bemagtiging van eens gemarginaliseerdes, te hervorm. Vir Katie Prezens, Jane Solomon en haar suster, Suzanne, almal van Hopefield, was die kwotastelsel 'n uitkoms uit hul sukkelbestaan. In 1996 is die maatskappy vir die vroue en weduwees van pelagiese vissermanne, die Bergrivier Vissersvrouevereniging, geregistreer en het hulle om 'n kwota aansoek gedoen.
Die kwota is toegestaan, maar weens 'n gebrek aan eie bote, moes 'n vismaatskappy namens hulle die kwota vul, waarvoor hulle dan 'n persentasie van die 'vangs' moes afstaan. Selfs met die klein inkomste, was hulle in staat om daardie geld in meer ekonomies-uitvoerbare projekte te stort. Die Bergrivier Vissersvrouevereniging bestaan uit lede van gebiede langs die Weskus wat verskeie strategiee aan die dag le om die volhoubaarheid van hul gemeenskap te bevorder. Weskuskos verteenwoordig een so 'n projek en word beskou as 'n manier om die geskiedenis van die mense van die Weskus aan te teken en hul trots en waardigheid aan hulle terug te gee. Ongelukkig is die maatskappy ontbind na die boek se eerste uitgawe. Oor geslagte heen was die Weskusmense bekend as 'n vissersgemeenskap, maar as gevolg van kommersialisering, staar hulle nou die einde van daardie tradisie in die gesig. Lewe aan die Weskus is onherroeplik verander en selfs kreef wat eens armmanskos was, is nou so skaars en gesog dat dit as rooi goud bekend staan.
Daarom bring die Bergrivier Vissersvrouevereniging, onder leiding van Ina Paarman, vir ons Weskuskos - 'n versameling resepte, sommige uit vervloe dae, wat so saam met die sout van see en traan ontwikkel is. Ingesluit is onvergeetlike seekos en watertand braai-en vleisgeregte, sop wat jou na kleintyd laat verlang en iets vir die dag van more, want die mense aan die Weskus ken ook swaarkry en weet om vooruit te beplan. 'n Unieke kookboek bied ons 'n kykie in die lewe van die mense aan die Kaapse Weskus soos hulle hulself sien.

15. Lekker Low Carb: Navorsing het getoon dat vir die eerste keer in die geskiedenis daar meer oorgewig mense is as mense wat nie genoeg kos het nie. Lekker low carb, deur die gerespekteerde dieetkundige Sally-Ann Creed van Die kosrevolusie-faam, bevat gesonde, bekostigbare, praktiese resepte om ’n dieet van lae koolhidrate ’n leefstyl te maak. Sy verduidelik wat so ’n tipe lewenstyl behels en hoe om graan, koolhidrate en suiker tot ’n minimum te beperk. Sy bepreek ook kwessies soos vesel en hoekom vroue sukkel om ’n dieet hoog in vet moeilik vind. Aan die hand van resepte vir ontbyt, kospakkies vir kinders, vingerkos, sop, gebak en selfs pizzas, hoof- en bygeregte, souse, snoephappies, koek en koekies, poeding en dranke is dit duidelik dat enigeen ’n gesonde selfgekookte ete daagliks vir ’n gesin kan voorsit om so werklik optimale gesondheid te geniet. In geselstaal, wat dit maklik vir almal maak om te verstaan.
