We've tried to hide it, shoving carbs aside for cauliflower rice and zucchini noodles, but we're not fooling anyone. Carbs are what we want – what we really, really want. We love them because they make every meal better. And anyway, global medical guidelines now say carbohydrates should make up 50% of our daily food intake, and that skipping them could lead to long-term health issues. What have we been thinking? It's definitely time to embrace carbs in all their guises. Macaroni and cheese is (practically) a medical requirement.

Whether you've always been a die-hard carb lover, or you'd like to learn to love them again, this book has the recipes you need. There are rice bowls, pizzas, pastas, tacos, muffins, loaves, and oh-so-many ways with the glorious potato, king of the carbs (including all the fry hacks you can shake your salt at). It's time to put carbs back on the table.
