Author Deborah Gray, who is an expert on healthy eating and has a bunch of acclaimed cookbooks to her name, has come up with what she calls “the only compendium of low-carb dishes you’ll ever need."

You’ll find something here for everyone, from breakfasts, snacks and packed lunches, to main dishes and desserts. Discover how simple it is to make healthy, easy-to-prepare, tasty and interesting food without resorting to faddy diets or starvation regimes.
