Reddit reviews The Hairy Dieters Eat for Life

I use three books from some guys who are tv chefs here in the UK.

They're called the hairy bikers (or the hairy dieters for these books) and I've used them for a long time. Simple, straight forward recipes which I write down the ingredients for on a list every Sunday. Couldn't be easier and they taste really good.

And there's another green book which is fairly recent.

It's really easy to get stuck in a rut of cooking the same stuff over and over, which is when it stops being fun.


I got the family to buy me a load of cook books for Xmas/birthday, so now at least once a week I try a recipe I've not done before. I've built up a repertoire of reasonably healthy recipes that are easy enough I can do them on autopilot while I listen to the radio.

A couple of my favourites, all with easily scalable recipes:
Nigella Express


Hairy Dieters

Growing herbs on the window sill is really easy, and it means you always have the ingredients to spruce up a bag of salad when I can't be doing with chopping loads of stuff.


Oh, and don't be afraid to cheat - eg I normally buy colselaw rather than make, tinned chickpeas and lentils rather than dried ( also a good alternative to potatoes)

I would love this cookbook please!

This fantabulous cookbook would enable me to cook fantastic food for my family to stop them foraging in the cupboards! It would also help me to lose the flab and get a fantastic figure!
