This review is from: Last Minute Meals for People with Diabetes (Paperback)

This is for people on the go. If you're absolutely exhausted at the end of a busy day and literally "braindead"...then this book is for you! It's mainstream cooking at its best...using 6 ingredients or less per recipe. Whether you are diagnosed with diabetes, or just want to eat better by taking control of your carbohydrates and your health...and ALWAYS in a hurry, then you'll love this book. My goal was to develop recipes that would not tax the brain or require a lot of energy to prepare, but still provide great tasting meals. So I intentionally created and tested every recipe when I was tired...yes, really tired to be sure that they WERE really simple, really fast, really economical, and really easy to clean up! You CAN have normal food and still be in control of your health. Since these meals are for everyone, you'll be eating the same food as your family and friends. You won't feel singled out, you'll just feel extremely satisfied!! Try my Double Berry Pie...cook the filling a few minutes in a skillet and slide a "flat baked" prepared pie crust on top...a 15-minute,quick-fix skillet fruit pie...and the ingredients can always be kept on hand! So now you can enjoy eating...all over again! Have fun with it, I do!
