We all know how tricky it can be packing in the veg each day, and I'm always thinking of ways to help make it easier for us busy parents to get the kids to eat more, like this Cook School recipe for Vegetable Samosas. So when the Veg Power campaign team asked me to help, I was only too pleased to join them...

It’s great to be part of the editorial team for the The Truly Epic Book of Veg Power. I loved working on this book with a great bunch of people and writing both the introduction and the Kids in the kitchen sections, giving ways to involve kids with each of the recipes. It brings together some incredible talent into one book including Jamie Oliver, Hugh Fearnly-Whittingstall and Sir Paul McCartney. We wrote it with the aim of inspiring kids and adults alike across the UK to enjoy snacks and meals packed with veg, as part of a balanced diet. It’s not a vegetarian cookbook – although it contains plenty of delicious vegetarian recipes. It’s a book for everyone, to help us all learn to love vegetables – whatever else you enjoy eating. I’ll keep posting more veg packed ideas on this site, so keep a look out, let’s all learn to love veg!
