One of the biggest barriers to eating well is, quite simply, having the time. Most of us do not need another lecture on 5 a day but healthy food that fits into ACTUAL life. You get home hungry, the thought of thinking about what to cook, then actually cooking that thing, we really need inspiration for something on the table fast. That is exactly why I wrote So Good Express. I wanted it to feel like the helpful, realistic sidekick to my other books. Same signature em style, healthy food I genuinely want to eat, just with a much bigger focus on speed & ease. We are now very close to publication day, 7 May, which is VERY exciting but I wanted to show you a sneak peak into what’s new. What’s new? * Prep and cook times for every recipe, so you know exactly what you are getting yourself into * All new recipes with exclusive ones you will only find in the book! * Simple ingredients you can actually find in local shops, rather than hunting down something wildly niche on a Tuesday * Quick, easy methods, lots of one-pot meals, and plenty of time-saving hacks (lasagne you don’t even need to make béchamel for) * Frameworks and toolkits to help you throw meals together without needing a full recipe every time with protein and fibre guides * Shopping lists to help you build a pantry that makes quick meals far easier Pre-orders make a huge difference for authors. They give the book the best possible start & all count towards those first-week numbers. Which is why, yes, I am mentioning the dream of that number one Sunday Times spot again. Subtle, I know…If you have been meaning to pre-order, this is your gentle nudge. Amazon and Waterstones both offer a pre-order price guarantee, which is actually very handy. It means if you order now and the price drops before publication, you automatically get the lower price. So there is no need to wait and “see what happens”. — TikTok di @emthenutritionist
