Actor, TV presenter and Celebrity MasterChef finalist Joe Swash reveals exclusive new speedy recipes that the whole family will enjoy
My happy place is the dinner table. I have such great memories from when I was a kid of sitting round ours with my mum, dad and sisters.
The food may have only been something simple like sausages and mash, but it was good, and meals were a time we were all together.
Cooking and meal times are not just about eating – they’re about sharing love and having quality time.
Now I have my own family, I’ve realised just how vital and precious that is. My wife Stacey Solomon is from much the same background as me.
And food, family and togetherness are hugely important to her, just as they are for me.
These recipes are for people with busy lives who want to do the best for those they love. Tasty meals without complicated techniques or expensive ingredients, this is family-friendly food that you want to eat and is easy to achieve.
