”I love The Happy Pear...genuinely good food that brings healthy eating in from the cold.” (Irish Times). Let`s face it: while we want to eat more fruit & veg & things we know are good for us, we sometimes fall short because we`re not sure how to turn all that great produce into great food. Well, welcome to the Happy Pear way of eating
- healthy but never worthy, easy but never dull, & packed with mind-blowing flavour, exciting texture & vibrant colour. The Happy Pear opened ten years ago when twins David & Stephen Flynn, passionate about starting a food revolution in their home town, took over their local fruit & veg shop & later opened a cafe. Their revolution has not only succeeded, but it is spreading, & The Happy Pear`s fans range from young parents to pensioners, ladies-who-lunch to teens-on-the-run, hipsters to Hollywood stars. David & Stephen`s first cookbook is full of irresistible recipes for everything from everyday breakfasts, lunches & dinners, to scrumptious
- & yes, still wholesome! Cakes & sweet treats, to special occasion splurges. David & Stephen also tell their story (how they transformed from jocks to hippies before finally finding their groove), share their top tips for maximizing taste & goodness in food, & explain how they`ve succeeded in building a food business based on flavour, health & community. ” One of the funkiest eateries in the country.” (Irish Independent). ”[ The Happy Pear is] a foodie institution...a beautifully presented book with mouthwatering photography.” (Woman`s Way). ”A must-have for any keen cook who`s interested in nutrition.” (Irish Daily Mail).
