No matter how many diet fads come and go—we’re looking at you, South Beach and Atkins—there’s one that is seemingly infallible: Whole30. Based on the basic idea of sticking to whole foods while avoiding anything processed or artificial, it allows dieters to detox while still eating meals that are delicious. The biggest struggle? Staying prepared (so that 3 p.m. hunger pangs don’t result in you hitting that bag of potato chips). Stress no more; we found the top-rated Whole30-approved cookbooks on Amazon for every kind of participant, from busy moms to the Instant Pot-obsessed.
