About Justine

Hi, my name is Justine and I love to cook and write. At the age of nine, I started compiling my first recipe book and I haven’t stopped food writing since.
I’m the author of Freeze and the Without The Calories series, and co-author of the Fast800 Recipe Book, as well as many other titles. I occasionally appear on TV, pop up on the radio regularly and contribute to several national magazines and newspapers.

There are some fantastic food books out there, but mine are aimed at people who are looking for everyday inspiration. I write recipes that fit into normal life, for food that you can cook in the middle of a busy week rather than saving for high days and holidays. It’s food that the whole family can enjoy together.

I use ingredients that are easy to find and try to write my recipes really clearly, so even the most inexperienced cook will get great results. For me, there is no point creating a book, however beautiful, if nobody cooks from it. My books are practical and packed with recipes and tips, including lots of information on freezing for when you’re cooking for one or two, or need to prepare ahead.

I’m not a nutritionist, but I’ve helped hundreds of thousands of people lose weight over the past 15 years. I love creating healthy eating recipes that are relaxed and easy-going. For me, it isn’t all about kale and quinoa (although they have their place), in my cookbooks, I kept the calories as low as possible without ever compromising on taste. I believe this is the best way to maintain a healthy weight, because if the food in your new regime doesn’t taste great, making changes in your diet can be really tough.

If the food is not only healthier, but looks and tastes amazing (and you know everyone else in the family will eat it), you can relax and losing weight will happen naturally.

All the books in the Without the Calories series can also be used in conjunction with lots of other diet plans as I’ve included the nutritional information for each recipe, not just the calories. If you have a plan that’s already working for you, I hope my recipes give you plenty of fresh ideas.

TV, Magazines and Newspapers

With a career spanning over 20 years, I have created content for some of the UK’s most popular magazines, newspapers and websites including BBC Food, BBC Good Food,  the Daily Mail, the Guardian and the Daily Telegraph.

I have also coached and consulted on a range of television series, as well as helping celebrity chefs and TV presenters develop recipes. My credits range from BBC 2’s Ready Steady Cook, Masterchef USA, Channel 4 hits such as The F Word and You Are What You Eat to the BBC’s What To Eat Now and Hairy Bikers series; foodie favourites like Clarissa and the King’s Cookbook and Raymond Blanc: How To Cook Well; and kids’ shows Gastronuts and Matilda and the Ramsay Bunch.

Feeling like a break from all that festive food? T Feeling like a break from all that festive food? This roasted veg salad may be just what you need. I’ve topped it with yoghurt that I’ve strained overnight in the fridge until it’s really thick - it’s lighter than cheese and is the perfect addition to a warm salad. I’ve sprinkled the salad with a few mixed seeds, added some leaves and a drizzle of balsamic vinegar and extra virgin olive oil. An easy way to kick off a healthy 2021! 🥗
I had the chance to share some freeze-ahead tips w I had the chance to share some freeze-ahead tips with @thismorning live a few weeks ago. As I am now not spending Christmas with my mum, I was able to give her some goodies to cook up for herself on Christmas Day. If you’ve had to downsize like me, why not take a look at my ‘Turkey for Two’,and lots of other ideas, by searching ITV This Morning with Justine Pattison. 🎄
Christmas is going to be a little different this y Christmas is going to be a little different this year, but it’s never too early to start planning your food shop.
To find out how to boss your festive menus, head over to BBC Food where you’ll find my top tips for getting organised this year.

It’s a beautiful day for a layered salad. Here's It’s a beautiful day for a layered salad. Here's one I made in the test kitchen. Eat at home or on the go. To avoid soggy leaves, put the dressing in first and the leaves last, then only toss – or tip – when you are ready to serve 🌞
