My Books

I write sustainable, plant based cookbooks that celebrate simple ingredients, nourishing meals and the stories that shape a life on Spain’s Costa Tropical. Every recipe is designed, cooked and photographed by me, and each book reflects a different part of my journey, from orchard life to food waste reduction to cooking for one.
