Jamie's Food Revolution By Jamie Oliver is a book about going back to making delicious, nutritious, and easy meals for your family at home. Jamie Oliver has been an advocate for bringing real food back into the homes and schools of England for many years. Jamie looked at the work of Marguerite Patten during the food shortages of the Second World War for his inspiration in creating this book. She taught Brits to survive on the little food that they had and stay healthy at the same time. He took what Marguerite did during the war and used it to teach people today the importance of creating simple, delicious, affordable meals at home by setting up "Ministries of Food" in small towns where he would come and teach a few members of the community to cook on the promise that they would then pass on what they had learned from Jamie.
This book is great for beginners because it has easy dishes that anyone can make in it. You don't have to even know how to chop vegetables to be able to make the meals in this book, he includes a number of images that show you how to do it, and in most cases everything is roughly chopped. Everything from salad dressing to a Sunday roast with vegetables can be found in this book. Many of my favourite recipes are from here like, Roasted chicken and vegetables , Hearty Winter Stew, and my boyfriends favourite lasagna.
I highly recommend this cookbook to both the beginner cook and even the more experienced. It is full of great recipes and will have you going back for more.
This book should be available at your local library.
