Mary McCartney gets it. She gets that the best food is always personal, always eaten with family and friends, always made simply from seasonal, fresh ingredients, and that memory and hope always sit side by side at the table too. And because she has such a sharp, idiosyncratic eye, all this is caught and celebrated with her stunning photographs.

Mary’s love of vegetables is infectious! This book is packed full of vibrant, happy and easy-to-master recipes, each and every one delicious.  But there is also an important issue at stake here and that is the health of this planet – we must all eat less meat in order to ensure its survival. This book proves more than anything that this needn't be a hardship but rather a joy!

There is definitely a recipe in here to suit any occasion. From tostadas deluxe and pumpkin and chilli soup to buckwheat pancakes and black bean burgers you will never be stuck for a tasty and nutritious vegetarian meal

Makes entertaining easy, whatever the occasion

A fantastic book… This really is one of those “pick up and be inspired” sort of cookery books

A fabulous collection cleverly put together!

The pictures are lush with loads of recipes that are mainly designed to fit occasions…though there are loads of everyday staples too

This is a fantastically non-pretentious guide to vegetarian cooking in the family home

if you have vegetarians to feed, you’ll never have to fret about catering for them again
