What’s it about? If your weekly shop tends to feature the same familiar ingredients, Speedy 10 is packed with fresh ideas for turning them into quick and affordable dinners. Amy Sheppard has created 100 family-friendly recipes that take no more than 30 minutes from start to finish, including plenty of 15- and 20-minute options for particularly busy evenings.

Rather than organising recipes by meal or occasion, Amy focuses each of the 10 chapters on an everyday supermarket staple: rice, beans, cheese, bread, potatoes, pasta, chicken, eggs, tomatoes and beef mince. It’s a clever approach that makes it easy to find new ways to use ingredients already on your shopping list – and helps keep the weekly food bill in check. You’ll also find simple ingredient swaps and time-saving cooking tips, plus vegetarian, gluten-free and air fryer adaptations for many of the recipes.

Who’s the author? Amy Sheppard is a food writer and recipe creator whose accessible, budget-conscious approach to cooking has earned her a large and engaged following online. She creates recipes and videos for brands and supermarkets, and her work has appeared in publications including The Sunday Telegraph, You Magazine, The i Paper and The Guardian.

Amy is the author of several cookbooks, including Hob, The Savvy Shopper, Easy 10 and Veggie 10. Easy 10 was a Sunday Times bestseller.

Perfect for: Busy and budget-conscious home cooks looking for quick family dinners that make more of the ingredients they already buy.
