If you like coconut, you will love this book. It’s written for coconut
lovers as well as for the growing number of health conscious individuals
who recognize coconut as a marvelous health food.
Every recipe contains coconut in one form or another.
Some recipes such as Coconut Battered Shrimp and Coconut Macaroons use
shredded or flaked coconut. Others such as Chicken A La King and
Strawberry Chiffon Pie use coconut milk or cream in place of dairy. The
salad dressings and mayonnaise recipes are based on coconut milk and
oil.
This book contains nearly 450 recipes with a mixture of both
vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes to choose from. You will find
recipes for creating savory main dishes, appetizing side dishes,
satisfying snacks, and nutritious beverages. You will find recipes for
dairy-free smoothies and blender drinks, creamy soups and hearty
chowders, delicious curries, stews, and casseroles. If you like
desserts, you will find plenty here to choose from, including German
Chocolate Cake, Coconut Pecan Pie, and Chocolate Almond Ice Cream.
Concerned about sugar? No problem. Every sweet or dessert recipe
includes a low sugar version. These recipes use very little sugar or
none at all.
Coconut is ideal for low-carbohydrate diets because it contains very
little effective (i.e., digestible) carbohydrate. It’s consists
primarily of indigestible fiber and, therefore, is a healthy and tasty
low-carbohydrate, high-fiber food. The milk, cream, and oil are also low
in carbohydrate and give foods a rich creamy taste and texture that is
both healthy and delicious.

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.
Packs In
Both Sweet And Savory Recipes
Midwest Book Review
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. Few photos, but the easy dishes don't require them, while the
range and variety of coconut dishes will delight coconut enthusiasts.
Great
Recipes!

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.
