This is a GREAT cookbook, particularly, as the title indicates, for people with diabetes. The cookbook has a LOT of recipes and an index for ease in finding what you want to make. The cookbook also provides nutritional information for the recipes, e.g., exchange list values, calories, etc., and variations. This cookbook was written with the American Diabetes Association. It provides a table of contents, menus, and the "10 Most Asked Questions about Diabetes." This is, I think, is the best cookbook I've seen for those with diabetes. There are no glossy pictures, but I'd rather have all the recipes this book holds. I highly recommend it!

The book is very nice but I am not sure if all these ingredients are foods that a good for a true diabetic. A lot of the ingredients are not recommended on our list of foods that meet the giude lines that we follow from a dietitian.

I enjoyed the Cookbook, but some entries have too much flour and sugar in them, too many carbs, to actually be suitable for a type 2 diabetic. These are few and might provide good eats when the biker gang from high school shows up. And some I could eat every day, and get healthier each day as well. Book has good humor and homespun comments about cooking in general, and I appreciate the names of the dishes as well. Well written by people who obviously like to cook, and who have a lot of experience doing it.

Whether or not you are or you live with a diabetic, this is a must have cookbook. The recipes are very easy to fix, the ingredients are readily available no matter where you live and best of all, the food is GOOD! Another nice thing about this book is the spiral type binding that allows it to lay flat while you're using it. If you are a busy person with little time to spare or if you just don't enjoy spending loads of time in the kitchen, this is the cookbook for you. I put this on my top ten things to get to simplify your life. One last thing is the book retails for $18.95 but many sellers here are offering them for much less!
It's excellent. There was one place where the previous owner wrote in it and I loved reading the recipes and cooking them!
