Cholesterol lowering cookbook

Can anyone recommend a good cookbook for lowering cholesterol?
I've looked at a few reviews on amazing but a lot of them day the recipes contain a lot of meat and really I am after more plant based meals. But then I look at plant based cookbooks and they are just trying to replicate meals and desserts for vegans using weird ingredients and that's not what I want either.
I have the green roasting tin and love that so wanted some more of that kind of thing but a focus on lowering cholesterol.
Does anyone have any recommendations?
Thank you.

Eat your way to lower cholesterol is good (Ian Marber and Dr Laura Corr)

What I ended up doing though was going vegan for about 4-6 months and my cholesterol fell really quickly. I used loads of lentils instead of mince (so shepherds pie using lentils) used chickpeas as meat a fair bit. I also didn't fancy weird meat alternatives. I'm not sure I could have done it permanently but once I finished, I didn't go back to eating as much meat as I did before.

That's a good idea. Maybe I will try veganism for a little while. I like lentils and chickpeas anyway. I'll check out the book you recommended.
