If
you are diabetic, how many times have you bought a cookbook
promising delicious food only to find that most of the recipes
are not delicious and that you have to buy expensive and
hard to find ingredients to make them?
As not many
of us have the time, money or inclination to do this, it
is a refreshing change to find a book with recipes that
really are delicious and which mostly use ordinary ingredients
that we can pick up in any supermarket.
Diabetes
Snacks, Treats & Easy Eats
does what it says on the cover. The book has recipes for
snacks, starters, main dishes, sauces, baked goods and,
best of all for many diabetics, desserts.
Just above
the title of some recipes, there is a quick guide to tell
you if it is low carb, low fat or low sodium - very handy
especially for anybody with high blood pressure and/or cholesterol
and so is watching their fat and salt consumption. At the
bottom of each recipe there is nutritional information showing
the calories per serving, grams of fat, protein, carbohydrate,
sodium, etc, as well as the 'exchanges'.
Read these recipes
and you won't be able to wait to try them. They range from
Crab
Rangoon Wontons to Strawberry Soup, Comfort
Beef Stew to Teriyaki Salmon Burgers and Stir-Fried Chicken
with Peanuts to Lasagna Rollups. As for the desserts—how
about Baked Alaska Pie, Peach Yogurt Pie, Fudge
Cake, Apricot Jelly Roll or Chocolate Cup Cakes? That
is just a selection of the desserts. (The publishers have
kindly given permission for the recipes with links above to
be reproduced on this website - I am certain you will enjoy
them.)
This is an
excellent book for anybody with diabetes, high cholesterol
or high blood pressure and is watching their diet. Also,
bearing in mind that the ideal diet for diabetics is an
ideal diet for everybody, people without current health
problems will enjoy and benefit from these recipes too.
