Low Carb Living for Families

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.

In addition to over 100 delicious and healthy recipes for breakfast, lunch, dinner, special occasions, and snack time for the whole family (including babies!), Low-carb Living for Families provides easy-to-follow, practical tips and inspiration for maintaining a healthy lifestyle.

Forewords to the book have been written by Professor Tim Noakes and Dr Andreas Eenfeldt. Professor Noakes needs no introduction to South Africans; he is SA’s foremost sports scientist and is well known for his advocacy of a low carb high fat lifestyle.

By purchasing this book, you can help to give the young patients of this Hospital their childhood back.

Two

During the screening of the MasterChef South Africa 2013 series, TV viewers were both fascinated by, and impressed with, the Van der Wat sisters. Seline and Leandri’s relationship and their varying cooking styles and personalities kept audiences on the edge of their seats right up until the final episode as they were ultimately placed second and third – no mean achievement.

Since then, their foodie careers have taken off, albeit in differing directions. But in Two, they are back in collaboration to present a fascinating cookbook concept: taking the same main ingredient and creating two different dishes from it or taking a classic recipe and making one for family and casual dining, and the other version to impress for serious entertaining. Whatever the case, both dishes will be utterly delicious.

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 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.
