The Healthy Air Fryer Cookbook: Discover the Secret Behind Healthy Fried Food


Chef Effect - 2017
    A highly stressful lifestyle coupled with the compromises you make in your food choices can result in poor health and diseases that can severely limit your ability to enjoy life. Unfortunately, some of the most delicious foods around, such as fried chicken and French fries, are not good for your waistline nor for your overall well-being, since cooking them requires vast amounts of oil. Nevertheless, you can enjoy the flavor and texture of deep-fried foods without the negative effects on your health with the use of an air fryer. Air fryers were first launched in Australia and Europe in 2010. After becoming a big hit, they were soon released in North America and Japan. Now, you can find air fryers practically in most modern kitchens where they are used to cook everything from chips to samosas. But while air frying can be considered a healthier way of cooking, it doesn’t mean you can eat high-fat foods every day without putting your health at risk. Remember that you still need to exercise self-control and stick to cooking mostly healthy foods if you want to stay fit. If you’ve ever wondered about how air frying works and whether it is indeed better for you, this eBook has all the information you need. It also contains healthy recipes so you and your whole family can enjoy all the benefits of air frying.

Recipes Tried And True


Ladies' Aid Society of the First Presbyterian Church - 2000
    It is the longest continuously running Presbyterian Church school in New South Wales. Founded in 1888 by a committee of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales, the school has a non-selective enrolment policy for all years. The decision to commence a Ladies' College was made in 1883 when the Assembly formed a special committee to investigate the establishment of Superior Boarding Schools for girls and boys. The church saw an urgency to provide Presbyterian education in the colony due to the growth in Roman Catholic secondary schools. As a result, it was established in 1924 with thirteen students to serve as a primary feeder school for the College. However, it did not receive adequate attention from college council and was forced to close in 1929. This school was reopened in 1930 by the assistant teacher, Miss Gurney, who named it "Arden." The school flourished under Gurney's leadership and thus "Arden Anglican School" is still in existence today.
