5:2 Diet Vegetarian Meals for One Cookbook Are you fed up with constantly trying to lose weight and sick to death of being on a diet all the time. Have you tried all of the latest ‘fads’ and they just didn’t work for you long term. Do you put the weight back on real fast when you stop ‘dieting’? If any or all of the above sounds familiar, then stop beating yourself up because it really is not your fault you failed. Full- on dieting just does not work for most people as there are very few who can stop eating normally forever. That is unless you are a super model and get paid fabulously well to do it.

We are human and love things that we know are not good for our health or our waistline. But we can’t help it because the things that are bad for us are usually the most delicious and satisfying. What would it feel like to fit into your favourite dress or pants or holiday clothes that you haven’t been able to wear for ages? How would you like to meet up with old friends and see their amazed looks at the new slim you? What if you could eat normally for 5 days a week and only ‘diet’ for the other 2? Sounds too good to be true doesn’t it, but that is exactly what the 5:2 Fast Diet is all about. Easy healthy weight loss without constantly watching everything you eat. It works by letting you eat normally five days a week but on the other two days you eat 500 - 600 calories. It really is that simple!!

As a vegetarian chef and a vegan writer, my husband and I have had a challenging time finding gut-healing recipes that are delicious and healthy. So, a few years ago we began creating them ourselves. Some of our recipes are a result of trial and error, and a few are the result of creative substitution. Our primary goal for this cookbook was to create original recipes with gut healing, vegetarian ingredients that can be easily obtained at most supermarkets. It goes without saying that we recommend fresh, organic produce wherever possible. Have Fun in the Kitchen! -Matilda
