MAKING THE PALEO AUTOIMMUNE PROTOCOL EASIER FOR YOU

115+ Fully-Compliant AIP Recipes
4-Week Autoimmune Protocol Meal Plan
Comprehensive AIP Diet Food List (Full Color Version)

Like millions of other people, I had an autoimmune condition that just kept getting worse and worse. Through diet, nutrition, and learning to care for my body (and mind), I've sent my autoimmune condition into remission. And I'd love to help you do the same.

The Paleo Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) is not an easy diet to implement. It's confusing what foods to avoid, and it's tough to find delicious recipes that don't include non-AIP ingredients.

That's why this cookbook is designed to be 100% AIP-compliant so you don't have to worry about figuring out what to eat for your next meal!

All the recipes are made with easy-to-find ingredients and don't include any eggs, nightshades, nuts, seeds, dairy, grains, soy, peanuts, other legumes, etc. So every recipe in The Essential AIP Cookbook is also friendly to those looking for dairy-free, gluten-free, nut-free, or egg-free recipes.

Plus, included in the book is also a detailed AIP FOOD LIST and a 4-week AIP MEAL PLAN.

Inside the Essential AIP Cookbook, you'll find the following:

200+ Pages of Recipes (with over 115 recipes covering Breakfast, Appetizers, Entrees, Sides, Drinks, Snacks, Breads, and Desserts)
Delicious healthy and allergen-free recipes like Banana Pancakes, Garlic Cauliflower Naan, Korean BBQ Beef, Beets Chili, Arrowroot Battered Fish, and 100+ more AIP-compliant recipes
No Grains, Processed Foods, Soy, Peanuts, Other Legumes, Dairy, Eggs, Nuts, Seeds, Nightshades

100% compliant with Sarah Ballantyne's version of the Paleo Autoimmune Protocol (as described in The Paleo Approach book). Suitable for those on an Allergen-Free diet, Gluten-Free diet, Paleo diet, as well as the AIP diet.

If you're looking for an autoimmune paleo cookbook to help your body heal, then this is the book for you.

Editorial Reviews

Review

I love this book! Most AIP books have recipes that are too complicated, or use too many ingredients that are hard to find, or that my family won't eat. Not this one! --M. Rose

Finally an AIP cookbook that uses real, easy to find ingredients. The recipes are mainstream enough that even my steak and potatoes hubbie can enjoy the recipes in this book. --Marie Mayhew

From the Author

Food as Medicine & Cooking for Life
I have an autoimmune disease. And for a long time, I felt like I was the only one.

But in truth, there are at least 50 million other Americans with an autoimmune disease. That's a LOT.

I'm sure that your experience is different than mine. But I also suspect that you might sometimes feel the same way as I have...

Frustrated and Helpless, Like the Medical System is Failing You
Modern medicine is amazing in so many ways. For instance, infant mortality is lower than ever. And you could break twenty bones and be fully recovered a year from now.

But modern medicine is not great at curing chronic illnesses like autoimmune diseases. And that's frustrating.

I visited doctor after doctor for many years, and they ran more tests than I can remember. But nobody ever off ered me a real solution to my illness.

At best, they prescribed me medication to treat and mask my symptoms. I don't blame any of those doctors. They didn't know what to do.

But I was constantly disappointed. And I've talked to a lot of people who feel the exact same way.

Fortunately, I found a way to heal my body without medication...

Real Food is the Key to Real Health
For as long as I can remember, I have loved eating.

And for most of my life, I loved eating junk food. After all, junk food is chemically designed to be addictive.

But once I started struggling to heal my body, something had to change. It was my change to Paleo and Real Food that made more difference than anything else. I hated being sick, but there was a silver lining...

Once I understood the impact of food on my body, I also learned to appreciate and love whole, fresh foods. Today, I eat better than ever, in terms of both health AND taste.

Better yet, I look forward to cooking, which was never the case when I was younger. Until recently, I viewed cooking as a chore that would take up what little time I had.

Today, I view it as a fun and exciting opportunity to create delicious food and make myself feel better.

And that's what I want to share with you and with the world...

A Love for Cooking, with a Little Perspective
I hated cooking for most of my life.

And for many years, I worked long hours as a lawyer in New York City. As you can guess, I had little desire or time to cook after getting home from a long day at the office.

So I understand completely that you may not look forward to cooking every day. And yet, I believe that everybody can learn to enjoy cooking. I believe that cooking can bring friends and family together like few other activities. And cooking does not need to be complicated or time-consuming.

Most of all, if you have an autoimmune disease, cooking is one of the most powerful things you can do to heal your body.

That's why I wrote this cookbook for a Paleo Autoimmune Protocol.

Healing Your Body Can Be Fun and Easy
Healing your body is not easy every single day. But it doesn't need to be a lifelong struggle. Getting well can also be much more fun than you think.

And getting better definitely starts in the kitchen. There are some amazing restaurants and great health-food brands. Still, 99% of restaurants and prepared foods are suspect at best.

If you're trying to heal an autoimmune disease, then almost all the food you eat needs to be cooked at home.

But that's hard if each meal takes you hours to prepare.

I Believe in Simple, Fast, & Easy Recipes
It sounds silly, but I think most recipes should be simple, fast, & easy. On special occasions, I sometimes choose to make complex and time-consuming dishes. On normal days, I don't have the time or energy to cook all day.

With just a couple exceptions, all recipes in this book are easy and quick to make. Plus, they turn out well each and every time.

Because if any one of those things isn't true, then cooking becomes much less fun. When that happens, you're likely to revert back to eating foods that don't heal or nourish your body.

Let's Build a Better Life
This is just a cookbook. But I also view it as much more than that.

I view this as an opportunity for you to dramatically improve your health and your life. A chance to take control of your body and feel younger, healthier, and happier.

Most of all, I view it as a tool for you to live a life that you love.

New to AIP? Get this book! DELISH and EASY

Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2019

Verified Purchase

Especially if you are new to AIP, you will want this recipe book. The Autoimmune Protocol is explained in bullet points (super easy to understand) and the recipes are super simple and DELICIOUS!! I've only had the book for two weeks and have made over 20 of the recipes... I had no idea I could eat this well and satisfyingly on AIP. There are other books that will go deeper into the theory and research behind AIP, but this is a must-have recipe book!! Enjoy.

This is a great "jumping off point" as one begins an AIP paleo diet. Easy recipes and very straightforward. This proves that though ingredients may be limited, you can mix allowed foods into healthy meals for just one, a few, or a family.

Love this cookbook

Reviewed in the United States on July 9, 2014

Verified Purchase

Love this cookbook! It has just the right amount of explanations (I get bored easily!) and is full of easy and approachable recipes. I get in a rut with healthy breakfast options - usually just leaning towards eggs - and this cookbook has delicious alternatives that don't take any extra time. There are also a TON of entree options that aren't your boring salad recipes but legit meals. When I make these recipes I don't find myself thinking "where's the bread?". Even if you don't have an autoimmune disease (I don't) you should definitely give this cookbook a shot.

Cauliflower in the morning, cauliflower in the evening, cauliflower at supper time!

Reviewed in the United States on June 8, 2020

Verified Purchase

The instructions and amounts are a little vague. I've had some recipes not turn out because of this. Some of the instructions seem to be left out and have caused confusion. My partner is a professional chef and was still confused by some of the instructions.

I hope you like cauliflower and coconuts. Almost every recipe uses cauliflower and some form of coconut (shredded, milk, or flour). The recipes do have very few ingredients and are simple though which is nice. They are fairly easy to make. You will need a food processor though.

Some of the recipes are obviously phoned in. One is for Dungeness crab. Ingredients Dungeness crab; instructions cook crab in boiling water. Really? Give me a break. Anither recipe is you can cook bacon on an upside down muffin tin to make cups. No recipe with the cups you just made.

Long story short; buy another book. There are better books out there for less money.

Many Asian-inspired recipes

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2019

Verified Purchase

This author provides much-appreciated takes on many Asian (Chinese, Korean, etc.) dishes not found in other AIP books. Yes, the paper is flimsy and there are a typo or a missed ingredient here and there, but it's easy to get the recipes right. I had to return my copy because just about every page was splattered with cooking liquid stains (obviously not "part of the book design", which tells me somebody used this and returned it and it was put back into stock and sold as "new."

THANK YOU! LOUISE HENDON

Verified Purchase

I am really impressed with how well organized this cookbook is. It is so nice to have an attractive, easy to follow cookbook for those of us with multiple Autoimmune problems. Obviously a lot of thought has gone into these recipes. These recipes are encouraging me to start cooking again. When you are so ill that walking across the room is an effort, it is overwhelming to try to figure out all the substitutions for the various AIP diet modifications. All of these that I have tried so far have been simple to fix and VERY tasty. My daughter was so impressed after reading thru it that she also ordered a copy.

Useful Intro

Reviewed in the United States on July 7, 2017

Verified Purchase

The author wrote a quick read, useful cookbook for AIP and Paleo diets combined. The author gives a few practical tips on who should do this eating plan, when they should do it, and how to do it. She then presents 50 recipes.

The recipes are free from most major allergens. Vegans will need to make frequent bean substitutions. Those who do not eat mushrooms will need to make substitutions on a few recipies. Those avoiding pork, will have to fairy frequently substitute or skip a recipe or two from each category. Those avoiding seafood will also need to make a few substitutions. If you need to avoid chicken, about 1/2 the recipes contain some chicken. The only difficult ingredients might be saffron, endive, or parsnips used in a couple of recipes.

If you've long suspected that your crappy, processed food diet might be making you sick

Reviewed in the United States on July 3, 2014

Verified Purchase

If you've long suspected that your crappy, processed food diet might be making you sick, but don't think you have the time to actually do anything about it--this book for you. My problem with a lot of healthy cookbooks is that they often feature complicated recipes that require lots of esoteric ingredients. So it's really refreshing that almost all of the recipes in the Autoimmune Cookbook have short ingredient lists and just a few steps. It's perfect for novice and/or time-strapped cooks who still want to make a change in their lives. Plus you learn how to make banana bread in the microwave!
