That was a nice way to preview which ones I would most. Or you could take some time at your local Barnes and Noble and browse them. I think B&amp;N will order books in for you without obligation to purchase if it's something they do not normally stock. I've done that before. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/54142#54142 Answer by HeatherC for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books?

There are many sites with recipes that are specifically paleo, but you can adapt others with substitutions...use butter, etc. The absolute best recipes come from old cookbooks (pre 1960 or earlier). They were using the animal head to tail, not afraid of butter, no processed ingredients, many recipes for game. Shocking difference. Even Joy of Cooking shows you how to skin a squirrel! I pick these up cheap at flea markets when I can. Calf fries anyone?</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/54231#54231 Answer by JansSushiBar for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books?

Laina 2012-09-11T12:57:48Z 2012-09-11T12:57:48Z <p>I liked Well Fed, by Melissa Joulwan. The recipes were decent, but her meal planning section was amazing and kind of changed my life. 2 hours of cooking on Sunday to have ten minutes meals all week long? Yes, please!</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/150256#150256 Answer by Olga for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books? Olga 2012-09-18T12:19:23Z 2012-09-18T12:19:23Z <p>I think you need to change what you eat. There are a lot depends of the food. I used a lot of different diets, but only what helped to me is revise my menu. Unfortunately, I'm cooking bad :(. But my friend recommended me a site <a href="http://www.funnycookingbook.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.funnycookingbook.com</a>. There I was able to find a book with lots of recipes to lose weight. Sorry for my English. It's my third language</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/188847#188847 Answer by Nikki Y. for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books? Nikki Y. 2013-04-01T10:10:48Z 2013-04-01T10:10:48Z <p>Hi! </p> <p>My name is Nikki Young, author of the <a href="http://paleorecipecookbook.org" rel="nofollow">Paleo Recipe Cookbook</a>. Before I introduce you to my delicious recipes, I want to tell you straight off the bat that the paleo diet is not a diet designed by diet doctors, faddists, or nutritionists; it is a diet designed by nature. It is not the latest weight loss program or celebrity diet that leaves you craving sugar-laden foods.</p> <p>You are welcome to visit <a href="http://paleorecipecookbook.org" rel="nofollow">http://paleorecipecookbook.org</a></p> <p>Have a great day ahead, Nikki Y.</p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/188875#188875 Answer by staceychev for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books? staceychev 2013-04-01T13:35:53Z 2013-04-01T13:35:53Z <p>Why cookbooks and not the web? Some of the best paleo recipes are on www.nomnompaleo.com, www.health-bent.com, and www.paleomg.com. </p> <p>Anyway, I second the recommendation for Joulwan's Well Fed. Her site isn't a go-to for me, but I really like the book because it's more about the hows of creating a week of paleo meals--it's more tricks and strategies. I have Make it Paleo and Paleo Comfort Foods and, while I'm happy to have supported those authors, I never open them. </p> <p>ETA: It kind of also depends on what type of cook you are. I think the reason I don't consult those books often is because I'm a "read 10 recipes and then wing it" sort of cook. If you're a more precise cook, then you may do better with them. </p> http://paleohacks.com/questions/54136/which-are-the-best-cookbooks-recipe-books/188948#188948 Answer by ParkerNotSoPerfect for Which are the best cookbooks/recipe books? ParkerNotSoPerfect 2013-04-01T21:07:36Z 2013-04-01T21:07:36Z <p>Although I don't purchase paleo cookbooks because I just get my meal ideas from regular food blogs and from stuff that just comes into my head, this one would be the one I bought if I were going to purchase a paleo cookbook for sure.</p> <p><a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/1624140165/ref=redir_mdp_mobile?camp=1789&amp;creative=390957&amp;creativeASIN=1624140165&amp;linkCode=as2&amp;redirect=true&amp;ref_=as_li_ss_tl&amp;tag=f05f-20" rel="nofollow">Paleo Lunches and Breakfasts on the Go</a> by Diana Rogers , highly recommended by Nom Nom Paleo.</p>
