The Fit Foodie by Derval O'rourke

The fantastic new book from the No 1 bestselling author is full of delicious easy recipes and can-do advice for being the best you can be! Derval O'Rourke believes that the secret to being your healthiest happiest self is to eat well and keep moving. Derval discovered the importance of nutrition as an elite athlete. After a poor performance in the 2004 Olympics she learned about food, fell in love with cooking - and then won a world title in her sport, hurdling. She believes eating well made all the difference to her form. Now that Derval is retired from athletics and is a busy young mum, her focus is on fitting exercise and healthy, pleasurable eating into a hectic schedule. The Fit Foodie is full of simple, delicious and totally doable recipes such as Laid-Back Lamb Tagine, Mediterranean Salmon and Spaghetti, Butternut and Bean Stew, Almond, Hazelnut and Pine Nut Bread and a stunning Chocolate Fondant Cake. Derval also shares smart and inspiring advice on how to get organised so that good food and exercise are a seamless part of your life. 'I am so impressed with the taste of Derval's dishes. They are really fabulous and I can see how healthy and energy-giving they are.' Rachel Allen on Food for the Fast Lane 'A good buy for anyone who wants to eat well without too many rules' Sunday Business Post on Food for the Fast Lane 'It's easy - that's the brilliant thing about it - and it's all healthy' Ray D'arcy
