This book supplied me with some much-needed advice on preparing meatless meals for a diabetic. However, ADA guidelines (as explained to me by a dietician) now use the number of carbohydrates as a guideline for most meals and this book failed to list the carbohydrate content of any of the dishes, which was a disappointment to me. Otherwise, I feel the book is a good start for someone who finds they are at a loss on how to prepare dishes which are both meatless and suitable for diabetics.

I am really enjoying this cookbook. I think you need to use it in conjunction with a book that has more information about diabetes and food components, (even if they contain meat recipes) however, the recipes in this book are wonderful. I tried vegetarian cookbooks and experienced difficulty with my diabetes. With this book and more study, I can live without meat. I have not found any other vegetarian books on the market and am grateful to have found this one.

This book has a recipe for vegetable stock that is worth its price alone. It will save a lot of money to make this myself.

My husband is has type two diabetes. He lost 28 pounds eating the creative recipes from this book. Without complaints!

This book shares excellent recipies with an understanding that you can be diabetic and vegetarian. I frankly didn't know that but now I'm comfortable eatng a plant based diet.

This is a good book for anyone wishing to improve his/her eating lifestyle. For diabetics and others who need to count carbohydrates it is a disappointment as it does not even mention carbs. I hope this major oversight will be corrected in a new edition.
