Book description
You can indulge without guilt! Enjoy delicious desserts, perfect
pastries, cookies and cakes, breads and bakes as part of a healthy
lifestyle. Who says you can't have it all?
Busy mum, home cook and heart-attack survivor Sally Bee knows better
than anyone how to incorporate healthy eating into a busy lifestyle with
her gorgeous, flavoursome and balanced recipes. In her new book, Have
Your Cake and Eat it Too, Sally turns her attention to the sweet things
in life to show that you don't have to give up your favourite treats to
maintain a healthy lifestyle or slimmer waistline. In fact, Sally claims
that depriving yourself of these little pleasures makes it harder to
stick to a nutritious and balanced diet long term.
Sally shows how to make your favourite treats a little less naughty
with healthier versions of much loved puddings, bakes, cakes and
desserts. You can rest assured that they won't be as sinful as they
taste; a sensible attitude and a bit of creative cooking is all that's
needed to spoil yourself the healthier way.
Sally also shares her helpful tips, advice and experience to show you
how to enjoy little luxuries sensibly. She also reveals some of her
culinary secrets and how to make compensations for 'naughty' ingredients
by adding more of the good stuff.
At the age of 36 Sally Bee suffered three major heart attacks in a
single week. Sally defied all odds and, 5 years on, is glowing with
health. She is the ultimate endorsement for living a sustainable healthy
life, and is living proof that her recipes work.
