Customer Reviews

Seniors take note!

I ordered this book for a friend, who was recently diagnosed with diabetes. She loved it so much that I ordered one for myself (and I'm not diabetic) and she ordered another copy for her brother! Since many older adults deal with diabetes and many of them cook for just one person, this book helps to make a significant life change easier to manage. Older people often have many reasons not to cook for themselves, relying on fast foods when they need to change old habits and eat more healthfully. The recipes are easy and tempting making this guide truly useful for seniors and others who live alone...diabetic or not. Change can be fun and tasty too!

A gift

I purchased this gift for my sister..she is a single person w/ Type 2 diabetes. She was so excited to see the things that she could make as a single person. Things that sounded good to her taste buds. Thank you!

For One

If you are alone and need to cook for one - diabetic or not - this is a good book to have, gives you great recipes for just you and it is not hard to double up if you are having company over.

Actually Edible Recipies!

I've been suckered into getting a lot of cookbooks that call for ingredients that I would not give to my dog. In fact, the dog wouldn't even eat some of the "healthy, yummy, tasty, etc." leftovers from some books.Every recipie I have made in this book tastes good, helps me to control my diabetes, and actually looks so good my husband (who isn't diabetic) asks if he can have some. You can easily double the recipies for another person, or use the "leftovers" for a great lunch. No muss, no fuss cooking that doesn't make you turn your kitchen into a restaurant. I wish there were more books like this. (The only one that is close so far is Snack Nibble Nosh...by Ruth Glick, if you want to buy a 2nd book & get 2x as many great recipies!)

good food done right

I got this cookbook from the VA on loan. I am from the south and this book is right down my ally. I love the food and the ease of preparation that is shows. I have been cooking for 3 years am not very good. I made 15 of these meals and loved everyone of them but one. I substituted my leftovers for the food called for. I made breakfast in under 30 minutes three morning in a row. Lunch was an snap. and dinner was jsut fabulous and quick to make,under 45 minutes. This includeed the prep time also. Chopping diceing slicing. And very good book. rhodson
