Description

'For me, being healthy isn't about being on some fancy diet, but more about nourishing your body and fuelling it with a variety of colourful, whole, plant-based foods.' Recipe developer, surfer, diver and young entrepreneur Kelsi Boocock shares her fresh approach to a balanced, plant-based lifestyle. Known as HealthyKelsii on social media, in this, her first book, Kelsi has created a rainbow of vibrant salads, smoothie goodness and nourishing dinners, finished off with moreish treats and desserts. Kelsi draws culinary inspiration from her adventurous lifestyle – infusing her recipes with the flavours and cooking methods of Indonesia, Italy and Japan, as well as Fiji, where she spent part of her childhood. Including a dedicated section that covers staple ingredients, substitutes for those who are gluten- or nut-free and understanding your food sources, this book is a must for everyone who loves food bursting with flavour, colour and flair. Let Healthy Kelsi stimulate your taste buds and expand your cooking skills with her enthusiastic attitude to plant-based eating.

Please note that recipes labelled as gluten-free which contain oats are not suitable for those with coeliac disease. If you are coeliac, please consult your healthcare practitioner for advice on what is and is not safe for consumption. Coeliac New Zealand explains that the protein avenin is found in oats, and is considered gluten, so oats cannot be truly gluten free. While oats in countries like the USA can be labelled as gluten free, within New Zealand and Australia, oats cannot be labelled as such due to stricter standards. There may also be the risk of cross-contamination if the oats are processed on the same production line as other grains.
