This cookbook features meals from salads to desserts as well as snacks and special treats for better health for everyone. With recipes from Better Homes & Gardens Diabetic Cookbook, meals can be made considering the needs of a diabetic without 'singling-out' that person with an unusual plate of food. These are delicious meals with the food exchange system used (a list is at the back of the book for making following meal plans easier). Even attractive garnishes are suggested so these recipes can be used to appeal to more than just the palate. Normal ingredients in the pantry or easily purchased at the local grocery store make these meals do-able.This is a practical purchase for any home and a must-have for those with diabetes.

This is a fantastic book of good, easy to use recipes. The diabetic exchange groups are listed with each recipe and a full nutrition analysis, for recipes in the book, is listed at the end of each section. If you need this extra information to carefully control your diet, it's in this book. Some of the main dishes are complete, including protein, starch, and vegetable in one quick to prepare dish. This book can make cooking fun and less stressful if you need to follow the diabetic food exchange.

Turns out this book is from our hometown. Perfect condition for a used book that was otherwise impossible to find. My diabetic husband can't wait to make a few of the recipes that sound tasty and fun to make.
