***IMPORTANT: Please contact us with any feedback or issues at feedback@nomnompaleo.com. We'd love to help you get cooking!***

#1 Food & Drink App and featured as one of Apple's "Best New Apps"!

It’s the Webby Award-winning app from Michelle Tam and Henry Fong, the James Beard Award nominated creators of Nom Nom Paleo—now available for both iPad and iPhone! Michelle and Henry’s Saveur Award winning food blog and New York Times bestselling cookbook are just the tip of the iceberg—this newly updated app makes cooking even more fun and inspirational, and takes all the guesswork out of cooking. Plus, now that the Nom Nom Paleo app’s available for iPhone, you can take these nomtastic recipes with you anywhere!

Features:
 
● Over 145 simple, tantalizing recipes, all free of gluten, soy, and refined sugar, sortable by food category, searchable by ingredients and category—the vast majority of which are approved for the Whole30® nutritional re-set program. You’ll find lots of recipes that are exclusive to this app, and not available on the Nom Nom Paleo website or cookbook. 

● More recipes are being added regularly! You won’t have to wait until future app updates—new recipes can now be added automatically to the app on your device!

● More than 2,000 stunning, high-resolution photos showing every step of the cooking process.

● Fun and visually-engaging new user interface and design, including a home display that allows you to quickly scroll through and visually select recipes.

● Simple-to-follow instructions, including tips, shortcuts, and information about food and techniques.

● An interactive, email-friendly grocery list that syncs across devices and makes food shopping a breeze.

● An extensive “Paleo 101” primer that explains the benefits of the “caveman” diet and provides resources for more information about ancestral health and nutrition.

● A Whole30-friendly 30-day sample meal plan with links to recipes.

● An in-depth shopping guide with product reviews and links to sources for cooking tools and ingredients.

● The ability to bookmark recipes, create a personalized category of favorite recipes, and add notes.

● A “constant-on” function to prevent the screen from dimming while you cook.
  
● The ability to email complete recipes and shopping lists.

Message from Michelle of Nom Nom Paleo:

Hey, Nomsters – my updated cookbook app is here, and it’s finally available for your iPhone!

This “cookbook on steroids” is a uniquely immersive culinary experience. It’s a visual feast packed with brand new recipes, as well as updated versions of classic Nom Nom Paleo dishes—all presented with my own special brand of whimsically snarky commentary. Food lovers and busy home cooks can visually follow each of my recipes from the pantry to the dining room table.
 
But that’s not all! For those who want to learn more about the “caveman” approach to nutrition and health, I’ve included a “Paleo 101” primer that explains why we eat whole, unprocessed, real foods (like meat, seafood, vegetables, fruits, and nuts) and avoid highly-processed and pro-inflammatory foods. You’ll also find an in-depth shopping guide, a 30-day meal planner, an interactive shopping list, and much, much more.
 
My hope is that this app will delight, engage, and inspire you to eat well and be well!

### 1/5 — Nothing happens when I open?

*2026-04-25, version 3.5*

For some reason when I try to open the app on my phone nothing populates. Has this app been abandoned?

### 1/5 — Doesn’t Work

*2026-04-21, version 3.5*

I purchased this app over 3 years ago and have never had any success getting it to work. Always freezes within 3 seconds of opening the app. Don't waste your money!

### 5/5 — 1 of my top 3 cookbooks!

*2026-03-18, version 3.5*

LOVE this cookbook. It actually stays out on my kitchen counter. Easy to read, easy to understand, and has magnificent photos for visual learners. Can’t imagine how old her kids are now!

### 5/5 — Lifesaver!

*2026-03-04, version 3.5*

I rely on this App to feed my family. I own all the cookbooks, yet the search feature in the app and the cook step by step make planning and preparation so easy! Love this!

### 5/5 — Perfect guide if new to Paleo!

*2026-01-07, version 3.5*

I’m new to paleo and I didn’t know where to start.  I was tired of eating basic paleo staples.  This app uses all the paleo staples to create delicious meals.  It’s been a life saver

### 5/5 — Easy and so tasty to use!

*2025-08-02, version 3.5*

Purchased years ago and still a major go to for dinner!

### 5/5 — Thoughtfully designed

*2025-05-31, version 3.5*

This app is fantastic. I use Michelle and Henry’s cookbooks too, but this helps me meal plan throughout the week so I’m always ready to go. Handy for those moments when it’s just not convenient to have your library of cookbooks with you too - camping, on vacation, cooking at someone else’s house. I use this app constantly. A lot of work must have gone into it because the layout is extremely useful and user friendly. One of the best apps that I have ever used.

### 5/5 — Yum yum

*2025-03-17, version 3.5*

I love everything I make from nom nom❤️

### 5/5 — Easy peasy

*2025-02-05, version 3.5*

Love the simple straightforward layout of each recipe and beautiful photos to follow but especially love the delicious taste of every recipe, thanks for doing the hard work Michelle so I can eat well!!!

### 1/5 — Does not work

*2025-01-29, version 3.5*

Not sure what’s up but all I get is a spinning wheel indicating it’s loading but never does. Have tried multiple times on different networks. Their website is the same it constantly freezes.
