    Welcome :smile:

    I've got to second the suggestion for "how to cook everything" I have the vegetarian one and it really does have recipes for everything and is full of simple ways to make delicious things from whole ingredients. It was well worth the price, if you have an iPad/iPhone there's an app for it as well.

    I'm going to need to get myself one of Jamie Oliver's books. Everything on his website looks delicious.

    Thank you very much teanahk! Whole Food cooking isn't necessarily just vegetarian is it because my husband would not like that.

    No, of course not. The Bittman book I mentioned that teanahk likes has a vegetarian edition (which I agree is good), but the one I referenced is not vegetarian.

    I appreciate everybody's help so much I I don't get to go out and look for cookbooks and look through them do my health issues so I ordered them through Amazon or Barnes & Noble bookstore and I have bought so many of them just to have to send them back because they weren't what I was looking for they wanted you to add some store process food and the recipes. I'm not definitely not what I'm looking for you guys have been wonderful to share your cookbook ideas with me

    my name is Stephanie I am new to MFP. Actually I started a long time ago but I only did it for one day I've been doing it for 15 days straight now and I'm enjoying it and losing weight. My question is about healthy cookbooks. I am finding it very hard to find healthy cookbooks for whole foods eating most books require that you put in a can of soup instead of teaching you how to make it anybody have any suggestions out there? If your looking for friends feel free to add me.

    Laura Vitale/Laura in the Kitchen is a Youtube chef who creates recipes from scratch, and also just announced her new cookbook. She has it available for preorder on Amazon and I believe Barnes and Noble as well. She's phenomenal; I've made several of her recipes already, and they're very adaptable based on personal tastes or dietary restriction. She does everything from homemade desserts, sides, to main courses. I'd recommend checking out her channel and seeing if she's what you're looking for. The book looks like it's going to be released in a few months.

    I have a significant gluten allergy & have had to make numerous changes. One of my most favorite resources is "Gluten-free on a Shoestring". It can be found on Pinterest, FB & I know she has also published several cook books. I especially like her GF flour recipe. Often times GF baking can be gritty, but my friends can't tell the difference.
