[.ca] New Diabetic Cookbook (ISBN 0696215632)

tasty, simple AND healthy:
I bought this book to test recipes for my diabetic grandmother, but it quickly became a favorite cookbook for all of us int the family. The recipes are easy to follow, use common ingredients and substitutions typically work just as well. Additionally, the exchange lists, glossary and Q & A section have proven to be invaluable. Perhaps most helpful for me personally is the "food selection tips" section which helps me to choose healthier options both at the store and while eating out. This is a great cookbook for everyone that wants to eat healthier!

One of the best for anyone looking to be healthy:
I have been a type 1 diabetic for 25 years and have been paying even more attention to my carb intake while currently being pregnant. This book is absolutely fantastic, with mouth-watering desserts, great party snack and everyday dishes. This is not only an asset for diabetics, but for anyone wanting to take care of other health issues, including weight loss and NOT be deprived! Does Oprah know about it?????????

Delicious even if you are not diabetic:
I bought this book intending on giving it to my father who has recently been diagnosed with diabetes. The recipes looked delicious so I made a meal for my family. YUM. The food is prepaired so that every meal has a lot of flavor. I kept the first book for myself and now am giving him a new (unused) copy for himself. Be sure to try the cranberry pork chops!

Another good book by Better Homes and Gardens:
I bought this book for my mom who was diagnosed recently as diabetic. My mom reports that the recipes she has tried are very good. The book is loaded with color pictures as well. The recipes seem more like real food rather than some special diet food. Many diabetic cookbooks have recipes which are pretty dull and definitely seem like "diet food" but this cookbook makes it possible to prepare beautiful and delicious with relative ease.

A high quality & beautiful cookbook!:
I already own a couple of dozen diabetic cookbooks. I bought this one based on the reputation of the Better Homes and Gardens quality products. This one continues that tradition. The book is not only beautiful, but includes all the nutrition information, such as ADA exchanges, Joslin exchanges, etc., that anyone could want. Many of the recipes I've found are enjoyed by the whole family...including the fussy eaters and those who insist on flavorful food. This book shows you how to remove fat and and calories and still retain the fabulous flavor in food. Excellent book.
