Fern Green and Lunch Well

Lunch Well is an efficient new guide to bringing a spark to your midday meal.

A Talk, Demo & Tastings with Bath food writer, Fern Green and photographer, Kirstie Young.

Come and join us to discover tips and tricks on how to bring the spark back into your lunch with Fern Green.

Much has been written on desirable pack lunches for kids, but for adults, lunch is often the neglected meal. With too many time constraints placed on it, lunch often becomes a sad desk-side meal. Rather than sidelining this important meal, why not use it as an opportunity to infuse your day with a bit of self-care, and a chance to refuel for a productive second half of your day.

Enjoy the evening with tasters and some insights into food photography with Kirstie Young who has worked with Fern over the past 6 years. Together they will bring the cookbook to life, discussing what goes into creating it, the recipes that get chosen and how to style a shot.

With 85 recipes, Lunch Well offers a road map: meals that take 15 minutes or less, meals that require only 5 ingredients, how to use one vegetable for three different lunches, and how to turn toast and tinned fish into a perfect meal. It's packed with abundant tips on how to build your pantry to make lunching easier and faster, how to prep while you're making your morning coffee, and quick ferments for better gut-health. With an eye to reusing ingredients and making good use of leftovers, not to mention packing to avoid spills and soggy ingredients, this is a practical book to reshape your relationship with the midday meal.
