I am not a gourmet cook. I like recipes without exotic ingredients and complicated processes. But I also like food that tastes GOOD. This book has it covered! If you’re looking for ways to get more coconut products into your diet, this book is the one to do it. I’ve bought a number of other books with that purpose in mind, but the recipes called for ingredients I’d never heard of and couldn’t find even in health food stores. Just as Bruce Fife has made complicated concepts on nutrition easy to understand in his other books, so he has made cooking with coconut easy for those of us who are not skilled in culinary arts. Thank you, Bruce Fife.

Fans of coconut will find Coconut Lover’s Cookbook by Bruce Fife to be a compelling little guide which packs in both sweet and savory recipes for use of the coconut, from healthy blender drinks to main courses, biscuits and breads, and desserts. No photos, but the easy dishes don’t require them, while the range and variety of coconut dishes will delight coconut enthusiasts.

I wrote a review for his book, “cooking with coconut flour” and I had to write one for this book also. The recipes are great, easy to understand and even easier to prepare. I really enjoy his recipes and am looking foward to future cookbooks using coconut products, especially coconut flour. I love this way of eating and am happy to have recipes to make life that much easier for me.

I was looking for recipes using coconut flour. So I was disappointed that all the bakegoods used mostly whole wheat flour. There was not even one recipe using the coconut flour. I bought this book instead of the “cooking with coconut flour” because I thought it would have a mixture of recipes. The other recipes looked very good and I am looking forward to trying them.

I’ve only tried a few recipes so far but, they have turned out excellent. It’s nice to find recipes that actually call for coconut flour and coconut oil-rather than trying to guess at what the substitution would be. Excellent source for those looking for a gleuten-free cookbook or those trying to incorporate more coconut into their eating lifestyle.
