      For many, breakfast is the best meal of the day, and on the weekends when the pace of life slows down, there’s nothing better than an indulgent brunch. The Perfect Start to Your Day is packed with fresh, tasty ideas for all sorts of treats—whether you’re grabbing a quick bite or entertaining friends with a weekend brunch feast. Drinks such as Cashew Nut & Mango Smoothie will prepare you for the day ahead. For slow-release energy, try Fruit, Grains & Oats like Pink Grapefruit with Vanilla Sugar or Deep Coconut & Sour Cherry Oaty Bars. Nothing says brunch quite like Eggs. Omelet with Chives & Gruyère is perfect for eating in bed on a day off. For those with a sweet tooth, Pastries & Bakes are sure to satisfy. Exploding Berry Crumble Muffins are ideal for mid-morning guests, while Pancakes & Waffles like popular Blueberry Pancakes will please both adults and kids. Those with big appetites will welcome Entrées, such as Corn Cakes with Bacon & Avocado, or Steak & Fried Egg Rolls with Mustard Butter from the Sandwiches, Salads & Sides chapter. Finally, use up a glut of seasonal fruit by filling some jars with Preserves: homemade Passionfruit Curd will turn your morning toast into something divine.

      GADGET COOKERY. There's no denying that a slice of thick fresh bread, warm from the grill is the ultimate in comfort food. But toast can also be turned into an array of mouth-watering snacks, nutritious meals and indulgent treats for any time of the day. "Things on Toast" contains over 60 delicious recipes for what to put on your toast, from a breakfast feast of soft boiled eggs with chilli flakes, thyme and chorizo, to a substantial supper of griddled steaks with rocket, anchovy butter and roasted peppers on olive bread or chicken livers, sage and pancetta on toasted brioche; you can also indulge your sweet tooth with recipes such as raisin toast with lime ricotta, mango and honey. In addition, the book offers thrifty ways of using up stale bread and quick-fix spreading ideas such as flavoured butters, pates and home-made chocolate spread. This is the perfect recipe book for lovers of this time-honoured favourite food and those wanting to whip up a nourishing meal in moments.
