They both campaign with the <a href="https://foodfoundation.org.uk" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Food Foundation </a>for policy change to make healthier food more accessible for every child in the UK, and Hugh's last book How to Eat 30 Plants a Week was all about adding way more colour and texture to the nation’s plate. Now he’s joined the growing family of fibre authors banging in some beans and plenty of veg for the sake of our health.</p><br><p>Pop over to Gilly's Substack for Extra Bites of Hugh and two recipes from the book.</p><br><p>Click to listen to The Food Foundation Podcast's <a href="https://open.spotify.com/episode/0Ip8QgaxrKt0OQLCEN9Xeb" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Bang in Some Beans</a> mini series produced by Gilly.</p><br><p>And if you like what you hear on this ad and sponsor free podcast, you can give a little back by clicking <a href="https://monzo.me/gilliansmith60?h=IWxUkf&amp;account_type=personal" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> to contribute a little something, or <a href="https://gillysmith.substack.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> to become a paid subscriber on Substack.</p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
