the pics are so vibrant and the recipes are worth making. Sweet potato pudding is on my top list - but so is every one of them!

The first recipe I have tried from this is the roast banana icecream (pg.164). It smells delicious cooking. It requires a bit of elbow grease, but so far worth the effort
