Diabetes Snacks, Treats, and Easy Eats: 130 Recipes You'll Make Again and Again

By Barbara Grunes

Like everyone else, people with type II diabetes don't have much time to cook, don't want to deal with "gourmet" recipes, and just want to eat their favorite dishes. They want to pop something in the oven, under the broiler, or on the gas grill, and eat what they like without worrying that it will be harmful to them. If they are kids (and the increase of diabetes among teens is alarming), they want to find some ready-to-munch snacks waiting for them.

Customer Reviews

Bought this by mistake

I was searching books for dog treats...and wanted diabetic treats for diabetic dogs. Somehow this book showed up in my search and without giving it a good look over, I ordered it. It is a recipe book for people. After looking it over, I found that it had tons of great looking recipes in it. I can't tell you how good they are, because my girlfriend who is diabetic stole it from me. I'm assuming it was good though, because she never gave it back!

Diabetes Snacks and more

If you already know how to cook you may not be interested in this book. If you are newly diagnosed w/diabetes or have a diabetic child this is a good "first" cookbook that is easy to follow and has a good variety of recipes for beginning cooks and children that are interested in preparing food.

Lots of great information

I bought this book for my sister. She loves it. It has helped her control her diabetes through diet.

Easy to make snacks for diabetics

This is the easiest cookbook I've ever used. The recipes are delicious. It's so hard to find diabetic versions of the snacks and treats I love to munch on, and here they are! Great for kids to eat after school, or for late night treats.
