Cookbook Recommendations for Bariatric Patients

Thursday, April 16, 2009 by Alvin Furiya

Earlier in the week I discussed the request from many patients for cookbooks that could be used by weight loss surgery patients. Even though there is not specific cookbook for bariatric surgery, these include some great recipes.

The Art of Simple Food: Notes, Lessons, and Recipes from a Delicious Revolution. (ISBN-10: 0307336794  ISBN-13: 978-0307336798)
The author, Alice Waters, is credited with the organic food movement. This doesn’t mean you have to use 100 percent organic foods but her description and simplistic approach to cooking is the best attribute of this cookbook.

Martha Stewart's Cooking School: Lessons and Recipes for the Home Cook (ISBN-10: 0307396444 ISBN-13: 978-0307396440)
We all know Martha Stewart. This cookbook is visually one of the best books I have seen. The use of photographs to demonstrate technique is fantastic. In addition her explanation of basic kitchen tools – pots, pans, spices, herbs, etc is for anyone with no or very little culinary knowledge.

I'm Just Here for the Food: Version 2.0
(ISBN-10: 158479559X, ISBN-13: 978-1584795599)
Alton Brown, host of “Good Eats” on the Food Network has put into writing his special brand in the explanation of basic cooking techniques.

Don't forget to check out the recipes on this blog either!
