Summer Cooking to support Leprosy Mission

Summer is the perfect time to learn how to cook. With fresh ingredients in abundance and longer, warmer days, it’s easier to take your time, try new recipes and enjoy simple meals that come together effortlessly.

At the Leprosy Mission Shop, we love cookbooks that build confidence, spark creativity and bring joy to everyday cooking

Simple meals that you can start with

If you’re looking to keep summer cooking easy, Jamie Oliver – 7 Ways is a great place to start. Built around everyday ingredients, it shows how one ingredient can be turned into seven different meals. Perfect for summer, it helps you cook flexibly using what you already have, whether you’re making quick lunches or feeding friends. 

Cooking with what’s fresh 

Summer is the season for herbs, greens, and garden produce. Get Up & Grow celebrates fresh food and shows how to turn home-grown, or market produce into vibrant, flavor-filled meals. It’s ideal for lighter cooking that makes the most of what’s in season, from simple salads to easy midweek dinners. 

Drinks that feel like a getaway 

No summer menu is complete without something refreshing to sip. Getaway Recipes – Drinks to Transport You is filled with drink ideas inspired by destinations around the world. From mocktails to cooling summer blends, it’s perfect for entertaining, relaxing afternoons or turning an ordinary evening into something special. 

Cooking that gives back 

When you shop with the Leprosy Mission Shop, you’re doing more than updating your kitchen shelf. Every purchase helps support people and communities affected by leprosy, poverty and disability through meaningful work and sustainable projects. 

This summer, keep cooking simple, seasonal and joyful with books that inspire fresh flavors and relaxed living.
