Need some meal inspiration as struggling to get variety into the DC. Can anyone recommend some cook books that actually contain nice recipes that are fairly simple.

I absolutely love The Roasting Tin by Rukmini Iyer, I use it loads! www.amazon.co.uk/dp/1910931519/ref=cm_sw_r_sms_apa_i_YkDWDbFCRY1WC?tag=mumsnetforu03-21

Use the BBC good food website. It can't be beaten imho. Most recipes are very easy and tasty.

I second 'The Roasting Tin'.

Rachel Allen’s Home Cooking or Bake are both great options - never had a bad recipe from either of them.

Avoca cook books are my absolute favourite though and the ones I use most. A Year at Avoca has 4 distinct sections based on the seasons. Avoca Cookbook 1 or 2 also very good.

Roasting tin here also, the veggie/vegan one - I’ve made 6 recipes so far, all easy, cheap and amazing. Best cookbook I’ve ever bought - the salt is too high though, you don’t have to add all the salt they say.
