I get asked a lot about what my favorite Paleo cookbooks are. I qualify my answers by telling people that I only enjoy cookbooks that my family and I like.  If my kids and wife can’t find satisfying recipes in them, they won’t do much good.

Here they are in no specific order.  Not all of them are “books” in the traditional sense:

• Nom Nom Paleo’s amazing and beautiful iPad cooking app.  I bought ALL the recipes and have made most of them. Fantastic app, great recipes. Nom Nom.
• Mark Sisson’s “The Primal Blueprint Cookbook“
• Mark Sisson’s “Primal Blueprint Quick & Easy Meals“
• Diane Sanfilippo’s “Practical Paleo: A Customized Approach to Health and a Whole-Foods Lifestyle“
• Sarah Fragoso’s “Everyday Paleo“
• Julie Sullivan Mayfield’s “Paleo Comfort Foods“

I chose these books for not only the reasons listed above but also because of the balance of not going overboard and trying to “Paleo-ize” meals by substituting Paleo-friendly ingredients in otherwise non-Paleo meals to make it alright to eat…

If you have favorites, add them here in the comments, please!
