The blazing salads cookbook / Lorraine Fitzmaurice, Joe Fitzmaurice and Pamela Fitzmaurice

For thousands of fans, Blazing Salads conjures up one meaning - real food, fabulously prepared. It all began more than thirty years ago when the Fitzmaurice family decided to adopt a strictly wholefood diet. It was not easy; ingredients were scarce and there was little popular understanding of the benefits of wholefoods. But to the Fitzmaurice's the benefits were soon evident in high energy levels and a general sense of well being. A passion for real food was born and led, almost inevitably, to the opening of a wholefood/vegetarian restaurant. The Blazing Salads Cookbook distils into these pages the experience of two generations, over three decades, of preparing and cooking great food. Here you will find well over one hundred recipes for spreads and dips, soups, casseroles, salads, main dishes, savouries, cakes, desserts and bread. There is also background information on wholefoods and their preparation and detailed instructions on how to cook delicious meals using natural and seasonal ingredients without the use of sugar or other artificial additives
