These Are A Few Of My Favorite…Cookbooks


As we all know 2020 has been a year like no other we have ever experienced. With the holidays quickly approaching this year I am focusing on supporting small businesses as much as possible. Over 90% of the gifts I have purchased are from small businesses this year. In addition to small business I want to support my fellow Registered Dietitians who are also cookbook authors. If you are looking to give a cookbook this year I hope this list I have created gives you some inspiration.

Below is a list of *some* of my favorites RD authored cookbooks and some that I would love to have in my collection. Several of these RD’s included below have authored several cookbooks. As easy as Amazon makes it for us to buy books and have them within a day or two (affiliate links below), I highly recommend supporting smaller (local) book sellers if possible. The list below is by no means an exhaustive list, if you are looking for something more specific I would be happy to help you find what you are looking for. Additionally, the list below is in no particular order and each recommendation includes a link to the RD author’s website…
