Item Description...
Product Description
Anyone with diabetes knows how important it is to eat well, but healthful food need not be dull, nor does reducing fat and calories have to mean giving up flavor. Why feel deprived when you could start the day with blueberry pancakes with blueberry maple syrup? Company coming? Everyone will enjoy a savory chutney cheese spread or queso fundito followed by pork tenderloin with gremolata. For an easy weeknight dinner, try lasagna casserole or pizza with carmelized onions and smoked turkey. Want to indulge a sweet tooth? Lemon cloud pie or white chocolate cheesecake will satisfy. The recipes in this massive book draw on the latest diabetes recommendations and make the best use of the new lower-fat ingredients available today. Each recipe is accompanied by a nutritional analysis and the most current diabetes exchange information, and the book includes timely information on exercise, carbohydrate counting, and food-exchange lists.

 | Very Tasty Jan 9, 2008 |
| I think this is a great cookbook. A lot of very good recipes with a good variety of ingredients. Its hard to find diabetic recipes that dont have a lot of beans or veggies (hubby doesnt eat them) and have them still taste good. I have been impressed with everything i have made. The carb count is a little high on some recipes, but the calories and fat are usually low. I also love that you can look up in the index something you have on hand and it will give you a list of recipes that call for that item. Very helpful. | | |  | Proceed with caution Apr 19, 2007 |
| Many of the recipes in this cookbook have in excess of 50-60 carbs per serving. Many times a serving is way less then what actually we put on our plates. As a diabetic I could not recommend this book to someone new to diabetes control. A+ for the quanity and quality of the recipes but NOT for a diabetic. | | |  | Big collection of decent recipes with some caveats Jan 22, 2005 |
| On the plus side, there are 1001 recipes, so you have to be able to find some you will enjoy and the directions are easy to follow. Most of the recipes keep an eye on carbs, sugars and fat, but make sure you pay attention to the sodium and cholesterol content or your meal might get out of hand. I would like to have seen them include fiber and maybe even a breakdown of the carbs and fats in the nutritional info like some other cookbooks are doing. I ran into a couple of recipes that had minor errors in them, such as a listed ingredient not being used in the steps or vice-versa. The most troubling thing I found is that some of the nutritional information doesn't seem to add up. The "Chicken-Vegetable Manicotti with Creamed Spinach Sauce" lists 435 grams of carbs for a 2 manicotti serving. I guess errors are bound to happen when you have 1000 recipes, and I expect they will be fixed for future editions, but make sure you take a good look at the nutritional info and exchanges to see if it makes sense. All in all though, it makes a decent choice for your cookbook collection. | | | | Great-tasting food for non-diabetics too. Apr 5, 2004 |
| I'm not diabetic, but as I looked through the appetizers section of this cookbook, I just had to try it. The recipes sounded that yummy. I bought the book and recommend it highly to anyone who wants to cook tasty food without resorting to lots of fat and sugar to do it. I am on Weight Watchers, and the recipes are points-friendly without being tasteless, and "tasteless" is how I would describe every WW recipe and every "healthy" frozen dinner I have tried--sorry to say. By contrast, the food from this cookbook is great. I made the monkfish-cheddar chowder from the book last week and that recipe will be a longterm keeper. [By the way, it works with talapia or another firm white fish if you don't want to spend $$ on monkfish or can't find it at your local, land-locked grocery. :-)] One of the best things about the book is that it teaches without being at all preachy. For instance, the chowder recipe called for pureeing some of the vegetables and broth before adding the fish. I first thought, "That's a pain in the neck," to this apparently unnecessary step, but I did it, and realized that the soup is much thicker and creamier--without cream--because a portion of the veggies were pureed. I learned something AND I got a great soup out of the deal. All recipes list calories, sodium, fat, protein, carbs and the like, as well as "exchanges" for those to whom that language is useful. No fiber grams are listed, which makes the recipes a little harder to estimate WW points for than they would be otherwise. Perhaps in a future edition, the authors can list fiber grams. In the meantime, I'm very much enjoying the book and the food I can make with it. | | | | 1,001 DELICOUS RECIPES FOR PEOPLE WITH DIABETES Nov 30, 2002 |
| I'M A RECENT DIABETIC. I HAVE LOOKED OVER COOKBOOK AFTER COOKBOOK. NONE ADAPTED TO MY TASTE OR LIFE STYLE. THIS ONE IS TOTALLY GREAT. I MADE THE WALDORF SALAD FOR THANKGIVING. MY FAMILY'S WAS CRAZY ABOUT IT. THE HUNGARIAN GOULASH WAS GREAT ALSO. I HAVE BOUGHT, BUT I HAVEN'T TRIED THE 1,001 DESSERTS BOOK YET. IF IT IS AS GOOD AS THE RECIPE BOOK, I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO TRYING THE DESSERTS ALSO. IF YOU ARE DIEBETIC, YOU HAVE TO TRY THESE BOOKS. I CAN'T RECOMMEND THEM ENOUGH. | | | Write your own review about 1,001 Delicious Recipes for People with Diabetes
