Product Description A Practical Cookbook for people with diabetes.
You’re cooking for just one or two. You’re short on time and energy. You’re tired of using family-sized recipes, wasting ingredients, and eating leftovers day after day. You want a cookbook you can rely on for great-tasting, easy-to-prepare recipes, without a lot of fuss.
The innovative No-Fuss Diabetes Recipes for 1 or 2 serves up 125 delicious recipes in large print—most of which make one or two servings, use ten ingredients or less, and are simple to prepare. You’ll enjoy sumptuous breakfasts, lunches, dinners, and desserts, including Gingerbread Pancakes, Grilled Turkey Breasts with Corn Salsa, Salmon Caesar Salad, Peppercorn Crusted Sirloin Steak, Vegetarian Taco Salads, Spinach and Feta Calzones, Pan-Seared Rosemary Lemon Chicken, and Cranberry-Apple Crisp.
Each recipe features nutritional information, including carbohydrate choices. The authors also provide great menu ideas, shopping tips, and advice on how to stock your pantry.
No-Fuss Diabetes Recipes for 1 or 2 features:
Simple
From the first glance it’s clear that this diabetes cookbook is different: the recipes are in large print. It’s also different because each recipe makes one or two servings–no waste, no leftovers–for people with diabetes who are living alone or with one other person. No-Fuss Diabetes Recipes for 1 or 2 presents 125 recipes–both traditional and ethnically diverse–that “match good taste with good health” and don’t require odd, hard-to-find ingredients. Each major section (breakfast, lunch, dinner) opens with 5 quick recipes that require no more than 8 ingredients and no more than 20 minutes to prepare. Most recipes are modifications of foods you’ve always liked: Huevos Rancheros, several types of muffins, Black Bean Burritos, Sweet and Sour Chicken, Chocolate Pudding, Scallop Fettuccini. Some are more quirky: Blueberry Fruit Pizza (not pizza at all, but a breakfast item made with pita bread, fat-free cream cheese, apricot preserves, walnuts, and blueberries), Sweet Potato Lunch, Lentil Spaghetti, and Middle Eastern Muffin Burgers (ground beef, couscous, and applesauce). Nutritional breakdown includes calories, carbohydrate, protein, fat, saturated fat, cholesterol, sodium, and fiber. –Joan Price

At last, great-tasting healthful food — in thirty minutes or less!
If you have diabetes, then you’re careful about your diet. But living with diabetes doesn’t have to mean being limited to bland, tasteless foods, nor should you have to spend excessive amounts of time planning and preparing complicated meals. Now the same authors who brought you the award-winning Joslin Diabetes Gourmet Cookbook bring you The Joslin Diabetes Quick and Easy Cookbook, with more than 200 recipes for dishes that can be prepared in thirty minutes or less.
Here are recipes for one to four people for every time of day — from Breakfast Burritos to “Power lunch” dishes to delicious dinner pastas like Mushroom Ravioli with Chunky Tomato Sauce, as well as suggestions for snacks, desserts, and beverages. Nutritional analyses and diabetic exchange information accompany each recipe. You’ll also find serving suggestions, advice on what to eat when you’re away from home or relying on restaurants, and a section on commonly asked questions about diabetes and nutrition.
Once again, Frances T. Giedt and Bonnie S. Polin, both living with diabetes, have created, in conjunction with the Nutritional Services Staff at the world-famous Joslin Diabetes Center, a delicious array of healthful recipes that will satisfy people with diabetes or anyone in search of quick nutritious meals.Amazon.com Review
If you have diabetes or cook for someone with diabetes, and you have a busy life, this cookbook will solve several problems for you. All 200 recipes follow the low-fat, high-fiber, moderate-protein guidelines, and all can be prepared in 30 minutes or less with familiar ingredients from your pantry or supermarket. These recipes are tasty, providing satisfying, healthy eating for the whole family, not just the person with diabetes–no more separate meals. Imagine a breakfast of Asian Omelet with Crab (like egg foo yong without the fat and salt), Breakfast Burrito (10 minutes to prepare), or Potato Pancakes (baked instead of fried). Lunches include a variety of soups, sandwiches, and salads. Dinners emphasize pasta, seafood, poultry, and lean meats, sometimes with an ethnic flair, such as Mushroom Ravioli, Spicy Halibut Fillets with Pineapple, Sausage and Mushroom Pizza (only 16 percent fat), Shrimp Fajitas, Cajun Grilled Chicken on Yellow Rice and Peas, and Turkey Sloppy Joes. Nutritional breakdown is provided (calories, fat, protein, carbohydrate, dietary fiber, cholesterol, sodium), along with exchange information. Designed to feed one to four people, the book includes savory dishes for all meals, plus exchange lists, answers to medical questions, and two weeks of menus (for both 1,200- and 1,800-calorie daily allowances). –Joan Price
