Foodtruck Cookbook : Healthy, Tasty Fast Food Reci

Series one of The Food Truck was one of the hits of the year when it screened in mid-2011. In 2012 it's back for a new season, this time accompanied by a fabulous new cookbook which brings together all of chef Michael Van de Elzen's recipes from both series and more.

The absolutely fantastic recipes cover all the meals-on-the-run that New Zealanders love, from burgers and pies, to chicken pieces and pizza. The difference is that Michael's recipes transform these meals from being tasty but unhealthy, fat-laden convenience foods that we feel guilty about to super-tasty, health-giving meals that we do not need to feel guilty about. How does he do it? By replacing the fatty, sugary ingredients with healthy alternatives - without sacrificing taste.

This is fast food that you can make at home at less cost and with no health worries. Packaged up with eye-popping photography, lots of hints and tips and a breezy style, the book is a delightful kitchen companion, just like the TV show and Michael!
