Author Description

Grounded in the belief that 'less is more', A Simple Table is about a shared love for a natural, balanced and sustainable way of living, good food and drink, and the simple measures we can take to have a healthier body and mind. Chi and Natali's easy recipes are brimming with beautiful flavours, full of fresh, whole foods that provide energy for the challenges of modern life. Gently guiding you towards ingredients that nourish your body, nothing is 'forbidden'; rather their focus is on uncomplicated food and on helping you to make simple, nutritionally-engaged switches to your store cupboard, so that you can eat healthy, natural food and live well. A Simple Table will inspire readers to cook with the seasons, embrace local produce and cook from scratch. Whether you are coming home late from work and need a quick yet wholesome supper, planning a weekend brunch with friends, or want to get your day off to the best possible start with a breakfast that will nourish and sustain you through your morning, there is something here for every occasion. In addition to the recipes, the book offers rituals that instil calm within a busy daily routine; from natural beauty and tips for sleeping, to gentle movement, meditation and daily gratitude. The authors present a refreshing modern approach to everyday living, and their aspirational message and calming tone cannot fail to inspire readers to bring the same balance to their own lives. Amid the pressures and demands of modern life, A Simple Table will encourage us to stay grounded. Feed your body and soul with this stunning book and support and sustain the way you live and eat now. 'I love these girls and their approach to food and life, I'd like to sit around their table everyday' Anna Jones, author of A Modern Way to Cook
