Free of processed foods – processed foods are terrible for our body, all our recipes are free of the junk

Not to mention you can lose a LOT of weight by replacing these curries as your main meal of the day. I experimented with them in October 2018 when I was wanting to kick start my Christmas weight loss and lost 4.5 pounds in just one week and then continued to lose weight with them.

In the old days if you wanted to lose a quick 7 pounds you would go on the cabbage soup diet, yet here I am with my own curry diet that has similar results!

I replaced 2 of my 3 meals a day with my fat free curry and then ate the rest of the time as normal. No diet club fees and my grocery bill shot down thanks to the art of meal planning.

Though if you’re not on a diet, then that’s fine too. When I’m not on a diet I still eat my homemade curries, as they are so delicious!

If you have a favourite curry, then this curry cookbook is perfect because you can cook your favourite all the time. Or if you hate vegetable or chicken curry, then that’s fine as we have a basic curry recipe that you can adapt for any filling!
