Presents a collection of recipes designed to lift one's mood, provide cleansing, and heal common ailments with dishes for breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, snacks, and desserts.
Donal Skehan is a home cook, food writer and Television presenter. Donal’s ethos on cooking is that all his recipes should be accessible, inspiring and encouraging for the everyday home cook. He has been cooking from the age of four when he flipped his first pancake and has been in the kitchen ever since! Donal is also an accomplished food photographer and he photographs all his own food images for his blog and books. In 2007 Donal started his own food blog, where he writes about his food adventures and recipes. His book ‘Good Mood Food’ was released in October 2009 and received fantastic reviews: “Good Mood Food is a new breed of cookbook that springs from the talent of a passionate home cook. A truly scrumptious read.”, - Ross Golden-Bannon, Food & Wine magazine “At last… Simple, easy recipes that are healthy and interesting. Donal Skehan’s book reclaims good food from the convenience of supermarket shelves and puts it back where it belongs – in the domestic kitchen.” Paulo Tulio “Ireland’s answer to Jamie Oliver” - RTÉ.ie

Worth every penny.
I previously followed the good mood food blog, but found that after he began publishing cookbooks the updates on the site were less frequent so I decided to pick up his initial cook book attempt, and I was pleasantly surprised. Donal's prose carries over from the blog, and each recipe has a conversational atmosphere and is simple to follow with room for your own additional touches. It's a great book for anyone and everyone, highly recommended.

Reliable Recipes
I'm usually dissapointed with my cookbook purchases; many dishes that look promising end up tasting just so-so, or have such exotic ingredients that are very difficult to find in my area. Not so with this book; every recipe I've tried has turned out very good. It is amazing how Donal can take very simple ingredients, and prepare them in such a way that ends up tasting complex. Even though many of these recipes are posted on his blog, it is much more convenient to have them in a book form. Other than my having to translate oven temperatures, measurements, and some ingredients ("Rocket" is arugula, "Courgette" is zucchini) the instructions are very straightforward and clear. I use this cookbook more than any other I own, and my family and I have never been dissapointed with the outcome. Every recipe is a winner!

Great food, easy to make at home
I've used and loved this cookbook since it was published in 2009. The author uses easily obtainable, reasonably priced ingredients to create delicious recipes that are easy to follow. The whole family loves it when I make something from this book. Favorites at our house include Favorite Couscous, Irish Brown Yeast Bread, Caramelised Roast Vegetables, and Lemon Poppy Seed Cakeri, but everything we've tried has been good.
