Reviews

These are wonderful and inspiring recipes.
*Nigella Lawson*

Jack Monroe is both cookery writer and tenacious campaigner . . . she understands first hand what it's like to be skint and have the desire to put something delicious on the table.
*Nigel Slater*

I love this book – Jack shows how limited cash need not limit your ambition or imagination in the kitchen. It’s joyful, democratic and beautifully written, and I want to eat everything.
*Xanthe Clay, chef and Telegraph food columnist*

Few people know what it’s actually like to live on the breadline. Jack does yet she still manages to create delicious, wholesome recipes that anyone can make with the most basic of ingredients and kitchen equipment.
*Fiona Beckett, food writer for the Guardian*

This wonderful book – written with Jack Monroe's typical energy, creativity and no-nonsense style – is full of things I really want to cook and (more importantly) eat. That the recipes frequently cost not more than a matter of pence per head is little short of remarkable.
*Marina O'Loughlin, restaurant critic*

'If she wasn’t already a legend . . . she has 100% reached national treasure status now.
*Stylist*
