About a month ago I discovered a new healthy cooking show. I was being lazy sitting on the sofa watching one of my all time favourties, Come Dine With Me, when I was distracted by adverts for the programme, Cook Yourself Thin. It seemed slightly Gillian McKeith like, and I quickly decided I had to check it out.
The presenter Gizzi Erskine is potentially one of my new favourite celebrity chefs! Her style and personality instantly enthralled me. Plus, I loved that she is on a mission to help make people realise how easy it is to make healthy meals. In her show she teaches women to half their calorie intake by exchanging a few of their regular meals with much healthier alternatives that are still packed with flavor. She hooked me with her smoked trout and watercress pittas. Next time I do a food shop the ingredients for this will be at the top of my list!
Then, the next day I discovered her website. Bright and funky, it accentuates her personality. I spent ages looking through recipes, reading her blog, yearning over her cookbook and of course I now follow her on twitter. So much interesting stuff, you must have a look. Go now!
I gave Gizzi's cookbook to Brianna for her birthday, and it was sooo hard to give away!
Which of her recipes will be gracing your table this week?
