Customer Reviews

tasty easy to make recipes

We love this cookbook. The recipes are simple to make and result in tasty healthy meals. None of us are diabetic, but we are committed to healthy eating. This book facilitates healthy eating to all people, not just diabetics. The pre-written grocery list for each meal is a huge time saver. We use this cookbook all the time.

Wonderful Book.

Whether you have Diabetes or not, you can enjoy all of the recipes. I have tried all of the winter and spring recipes and a few of the summer recipes. A few of our family favorites so far are the Macaroni and Cheese, Chicken Piccata, Potatoes Au Gratin, Peach Cobbler, Splendid Blueberry Crisp, and Buttermilk Biscuits. I love the convenience of the grocery lists and weekly meal plans. Have your children cook with you and they will more likely to try new things. My 3-year old daughter has become my lil Sous Chef. Teaching children good eating habits at a young age will help them become healthy adults. Hopefully someone will come up with a more natural alternative to the Splenda and other sugar substitutes. I highly reccomend this book to everyone!

Good Book

My 10 year old was recently diagnosed with pre-diabetes. The visit to the dietician was informative but overwhelming. Thank goodness the "Ultimate Diabetes Meal Planner" took the guesswork out of what to prepare and eat in four easy steps. Although images would be enjoyable to see I'm sure it would have made the cost of the book much more than it was. This book has brought peace of mind and a healthier eating practice to my family.

Excellent & easy to follow

This book was suggested by our physician. Neither my husband or myself are diabetic but both are overweight and needed assistance in getting on the right track. This book is realistic with shopping lists, calorie intake to follow with numerous recipes for the average person on a budget.

Great Book

This is by far the best diet-meal planner book I have seen. It gives you an enormus amount of information and makes your planning a breeze. Just pick your calorie intake and go. shopping list and all. This book is a great tool for anyone not just those who have diabeties. I recommend this book to everyone, you can't go wrong with this book. This lady knows her stuff she should do a DVD next. Linda in ME
