Carnivore in the Kitchen

Burgers, rib-eyes, and brisket are tasty and satisfying, but they’re not the only way to pack a carnivore diet with nutrients. In Carnivore in the Kitchen, popular TikTok creator Courtney Luna shares her approach to making a meat-centric way of eating exciting and sustainable. 

This is more than a cookbook. It begins with a deconstruction of popular meat-based diets—the lion diet, the more traditional carnivore-style diet, and the broader animal-based diet—to help you differentiate between them and empower you to carve out a dietary path that works with your preferences and lifestyle.


Courtney follows this overview with chapters devoted to helping you start your carnivore journey, offering tips for setting up your kitchen and stocking your fridge, freezer, and pantry. She also provides curated meal plans and grocery lists, which take the stress out of answering everyone’s favorite question, “What’s for dinner?” The carnivore lifestyle can work for the whole family, and in a chapter devoted to an animal foods–based diet for kids (which also includes fruit), Courtney explains how to emphasize nutrition without demonizing foods.


She keeps one foot grounded in traditional carnivore practice by explaining the basics of preparing different cuts of meat, which helps you build your confidence in the kitchen. Then she takes you beyond the conventional with recipes that offer a more expansive range of flavors but are still 100 percent carnivore friendly. The recipes ensure guilt-free nourishment without grains, gluten, sweeteners, or vegetables, but for those who want a hint of “naughtiness,” she offers a bit of indulgence with optional vanilla, cinnamon, and other seasonings. 

You’ll be able to let your carnivore spirit run wild with recipes like


•Breakfast Meatballs
•Smoked Salmon Blinis
•Creamy Sausage Soup
•Liver Burgers
•Lasagna
•Carnivore Cinnamon Rolls


Whether you are carnivore diet devotee or are just looking to try something new, Carnivore in the Kitchen encourages experimentation and innovation by inspiring you to go beyond traditional meat dishes and discover new preparations and flavor combinations you never thought possible!
