Hairy bikers diet book

[meriad]

do any of you have it; if yes, what do you think of it.

Just watched their programme on TV and was quite 'inspired' by their beef lasagne that uses leek instead of pasta - it looked amazing. The reviews of the book on Amazon are quite good as well and I'm tempted to buy it.

Yes I've had the book for a long time, it is quite good
It was cheaper in Tesco and Sainsburys though Their other book, Eat for Life is good too
I've cooked quite a few recipes from both.

Here you go meriad, I thought it was on here somewhere

I have it too and like it.

Why not do as I do now with cookery books - borrow it from the library first to see if you really like it. The amount of times I've flicked through a cookery book in a shop, thought it looked fab then bought it, got it home and realised there wouldn't be anything in it I'd actually cook! Now I always borrow them from the library first.

Thanks for that link Di - hadn't seen it but it seems everyone is quite pleased with the book which is great. I think Lozz's comment hit the nail on the head: "Very tasty food, no one leaves the table hungry and we are cutting back on the fat and sugar." It's the no one leaving the table hungry bit because I remember struggling with that on WW at times; depending on what I'd had I was really hungry shortly after having my meal.


Debih, it's not that easy for me to get to a library to be honest; I leave the house just after 7am and come back just before 7pm which would mean I'd only have a few hours during the Saturday morning (if the library is even open then) to get to one.

In fairness, the recipes on the show last night, and reading through some of the reviews on Amazon and on here I think it's a book you can't really go wrong with so I'll have a look in Tesco next time I go and just buy it

I'm still using the book Ria and still loving it

Glad to hear that Lozz . My colleague is an Amazon Prime member and they had the book for £7.00 including delivery so I've just ordered it - should arrive tomorrow

Then I'll have the rest of this week and the weekend to figure out the food menu and buy accordingly

[Diflower]

Oh that's good, I'm sure that's what I paid for it

Tonight I made the chicken tangle pie...oh my it was scrummy
