Cooking With Heroes: The Royal British Legion Centenary Cookbook

About the author

This is the third cookbook that Royal Air Force Squadron Leader Jon Pullen has put together, all of which have raised around £200,000 in total for military charities. In 2009 he teamed up with Help For Heroes to produce a charity cookbook that sold 25,000 copies nationwide. In 2017 he was behind the RAF100 Cookbook, celebrating the 100th anniversary of the Royal Air Force. Continuing his history of encouraging the military to raise funds for the military, Jon has assembled a team of writers and chefs from across the services, including serving personnel, veterans, reserves, families and friends, along with Royal British Legion members, working together to raise funds for the Legion.

Written by military personnel and veterans, it features recipes from high-profile Legion supporters including Ainsley Harriott, Jamie Oliver and the Hairy Bikers.
