A New Zealand approach to everyday eating

Good Condition - with scuffed, marked covers and worn edges/corners. Pencil notes and amendment marks are visible on a photographed recipe page.

Carolyn Gibson outlines the KISS approach to food and weight management, bringing its emphasis on keeping things simple to a New Zealand readership. The book sets out the author's eating programme alongside daily meal plans, recipes and accounts of people who followed her approach. Local ingredients and familiar meals make the material relevant to the kitchen as well as the reading chair, while guidance on routine and planning explains how Gibson envisages the programme fitting into ordinary life. Presented as a practical introduction to her method, it combines cookery ideas with the motivational style of a popular diet book. Readers interested in New Zealand food publishing will also find a snapshot of the period's approach to weight-conscious eating.
