:eek: What does he put in it? Organic steak mince?

well he recommends but doesn't say it's essential so I didn't cost it as organic, but that'd make it even more.

And proper balsamic, proper olive oil, basmati rice, fresh red peppers, 500g natural yoghurt, bought pre-made guacamole...

you get the idea?

I guess it doesn't have lentils and carrots in it then.

I know we return to this debate a lot, but I really do feel that this type of site gets a weirdly hard time about saying we're healthy compared to its comparators.

Example: asda good for you ice cream. Ingredients:Partially Reconstituted Whey Proteins (From Milk), Sugar, Glucose Syrup, Vegetarian Whey Powder (From Milk), Skimmed Milk Powder, Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil and Vegetable Oil, Emulsifier (Mono and Di-glycerides of Fatty Acids), Stabilisers (Carob Gum, Guar Gum, Carrageenan), Flavouring, Colours (Annatto Curcumin).

I wouldn't rule out the recipe book type thingie. There's little that's impossible.

Are the recipe tabs "meal plan recipes" and "more recipes" ?
