I bought this book because I was intrigued by the title. There are 4 0r 5 ingredient cookbook aplenty but this was the 1st one I saw that was "DIABETIC". I love the "loose leaf" D ring time set up where you can lay it flat (or fold over the front cover) and not have to stick a can of beans on the page to keep it open. Also the recipes are creative and the best part is I don't have to pull out a dozen items to make it. Most are everyday ingredients so I don't have to hunt down some exotic herb, fish or protein.
Also it had nutritional information so I can figure the points for the new Weight Watcher program.

I had purchased this book for myself from a book vendor at work several years ago. I was intrigued by the number of fish recipes (always looking for new ones in that line), and my husband had been diagnossed as diabetic. Love ALL the recipes we have tried. Purchased one to send to my sister a few years ago even though there are no diabetics in her family-she likes it. My brother was diagnosed diabetic recently, so it was a no-brainer to get him one for Christmas. It is one of the best for simple, healthy recipes.
