BOSH! on a Budget: From the bestselling vegan authors, comes
Whether you’re living completely meat-free, or just looking to introduce more plant-based dishes into your meal plans, BOSH! on a Budget could be the cookbook you are after. Number one Sunday Times bestselling authors Henry and Ian know how to make outrageously tasty, super satisfying food without breaking the bank. In BOSH! on a Budget, they share over 100 delicious recipes and prove that great tasting food doesn’t have to cost the earth. My first Bosh! book was given to me about four years ago by my friend Sharon, who is also a highly sought after plant-based retreat-caterer, and I still use nearly all the recipes every week. She also suggested that my family and I watch the documentary What the Health? on Netflix. I won’t go into it here, but let’s just say we were sold on the ‘why?’ and, thankfully, giving us the book gave us the ‘how?’.There is an array of meals here. Breakfast and brunch, light meals, entertaining, comfort foods and desserts are all included. The ingredients are familiar and readily available and, for the most part, cheap. I dare say that even those cooking in a non-vegan household will enjoy these dishes, even if they take the liberty of replacing the specified dairy-free butter with the one they already have in the fridge. Add the onion and celeriac to the processor with half the mushrooms. Pulse until you have rough dice, then tip into a bowl. Add the onion, leek, celery, garlic and parsley to the processor with the rest of the mushrooms. Pulse to chop, then add to the bowl with the onion and celeriac. Continue in batches until all the vegetables are chopped, then stir to combine. Take the pan off the heat and set it to one side, leaving the lid on but with a small gap to let out steam Ultimately, Bosh! wins at creativity. Whichever way you consume your cookery content, whether it’s through the screen or in a greasy-fingered book, Bosh! is the light touch ‘how to’ of modern plant-based cooking Speedy BOSH! is dedicated to vegan meals that can be prepared and cooked in under 30 minutes, while BOSH! Healthy Vegan is all about eating clean AND satisfying your tastebuds.

Henry: I was never a big fan of eggs and to be honest I’m not that keen on vegan egg replacements either! I have a few favourites from this book, which is full of mouth-watering possibilities: Chilli Red Pesto from the Staples chapter; Mississippi Mud Pie proves that vegan treats are just as decadent as any other dessert; Thai Red Curry could well be our regular Wednesday night dinner. Swedish ‘Meat’-balls will be popular even with those card-carrying meat lovers.
Ian's Simple Shakshuka
To celebrate BOSH! On a budget, resident veggie-muncher William Lobley had the chance to pose a few questions to Henry and Ian. Here’s what he found out: The debut book, BOSH!, and its follow-up BISH BASH BOSH!, are hefty tomes full of meals ranging from super-healthy vegetable bowls to hearty comfort foods. I have been happily oblivious to the Bosh! phenomenon on social media, content in what the book alone has managed to achieve in our house. It was more than a recipe book. It was a guide to making meat-free food that the kids would eat, showing us how to bolster and layer flavours using everyday ingredients in recipes that you could have any day of the week and with stuff you have in the cupboards. BOSH! How To Live Vegan is a great handbook for recent vegan converts. As well as easy recipes, the book also details how to properly source good quality vegan ingredients. Additionally, it has helpful tips on sustainable living.

Did you have to make any sacrifices in terms of flavour or ingredient choice when writing more budget recipes for BOSH! On a budget? We’ve written a fair few bolognese recipes over the years, but this one, made with celeriac and lentils, is one of our best. Be warned though, it makes a BIG batch! One portion of this will happily feed 16 people, but it freezes like a dream, which means you’ll have something delicious to eat even if you don’t fancy cooking from scratch! Timings
Summary
No one likes a flat, dry cake so we test our recipes over and over until we’re absolutely sure they work perfectly!

No! Writing with budget constraints really got our creative juices flowing and made us think out of the box for ways to create maximum flavour with minimum cost.
Counting the most recent release, BOSH! On A Budget, Henry and Ian have produced six cookbooks brimming with recipes. Whether you’re living completely meat-free, or just looking to introduce more plant-based meals into your week, this is the money-saving cookbook for you. I love the BOSH! boys, their energy and their totally original, exciting approach to simple, tasty plant-based food.’
