Thank you to the wonderful, talented teams at RDF Television who make ‘Eat Well For Less?’ the success it is. It really is a fantastic team effort and I’m full of admiration for your incredible hard work, creativity, humour and attention to detail.
Huge thank you to Gregg Wallace and Chris Bavin for putting your faith and trust in us and being a joy to work with.
And to Tom Edwards and Lindsay Bradbury from the BBC for your unwavering encouragement. Jim Allen – boss, friend and TV guru – and Fiona Gay, who worked out how to make it all happen.
Jen Fazey (plate spinning supremo) and Janet Brinkworth (cook and comfort blanket) for all their help in pulling this book together.
Thank you to the many families who have taken part, made us endless cups of tea and handed over your receipts. I hope you’re all still eating well for less.
Like a lot of working parents, I really couldn’t do my job without the love, support and understanding of the home team – Matty, Rob, Mum and Dad - all of whom can cook much better than me. Thank you for keeping me sane.
