Every time Donna Hay brings out a new cookbook I wonder at how she does it. Between recipes for her magazine and the numerous cookbooks she has produced, she has a knack for coming up with the most innovative and simple recipes. I have been collecting her cookbooks for years and have never found one that I absolutely didn’t have to own.
This latest offering is just what the doctor ordered for moms or dads or anyone who need to get food made in a hurry. The recipes are all beautifully photographed and use mainly accessible ingredients that will help you get meals on the table in a flash.

Combine the beans and tuna in a bowl. Add the preserved lemon, parsley, salt and pepper and mix well.
