8. So Good: Food You Want To Eat Designed By A Nutritionist
by Emily English
€21.99
When we think of nutrition and 'eating well' so many of us jump to the words 'diet', 'unenjoyable' and 'sacrifice'. Sometimes we can see healthy eating as something we should do rather than something you want to do. This book aims to change that. To alter your perception of eating well and shift away from an all or nothing approach. Food, to me, means joy. It's a celebration, a memory, a moment. As I spent my life around food, I realised something profound: "We don't eat nutrients, we eat food, meals, flavour." I sought to close the gap between the scientific and the savoury, to bring the joy back to nutrition through my debut cook book SO GOOD. SO GOOD grew into a movement. It's not about counting calories; it's about making every meal COUNT. It's about loving the food that loves you back and transforming how people look at healthy eating. Let every bite you take not only nourish your body but feed your soul with the simple delight of SO GOOD. Let's bring the joy back to nutrition, back to our lives, back to our plates, and never forget that food, at its core, is joy. Food, to me, means joy. It's a celebration, a memory, a moment. And I invite you to join me on this journey, where food becomes a symbol of joy, nourishment, and love. Let's cook together, laugh together, and make every meal a moment that's SO GOOD.
