No-Fuss Diabetes Desserts
by Linda GassenheimerAt the end of a meal, nearly everyone has the same question: "What's for dessert?" Now, for people with diabetes, there's a good answer. No-Fuss Diabetes Desserts is designed to satisfy any sweet tooth with dozens of dessert recipes specifically designed for those with diabetes. Best of all, these desserts are simple, fast, and, of course, very tasty. For most newly diagnosed people with diabetes, the assumption is that desserts and sweets are a thing of the past, but any meal plan can accommodate something sweet as long as the portions are appropriate and the ingredients are selected carefully. Author Linda Gassenheimer also shows that dessert doesn't have to be elaborate, just something that's quick, easy, very delicious, and not likely to break a calorie or carbohydrate bank. In fact, most of the desserts in this book take only minutes to make. Most importantly, No-Fuss Diabetes Desserts shows that people with diabetes can end a meal with dessert and not feel guilty or left out. These are quick desserts that can be made with very little effort, all based on simple ingredients found in a local supermarket.

Sizzle and Smoke
by Steven PetusevskyNothing beats the experience of meats and veggies sizzling over hot coals or a gas-fired grill as the smell of smoke fills the air. Which is why Chef Steve Petusevsky felt he had to write Sizzle and Smoke, the first grilling book designed specifically for people with diabetes or prediabetes. This collection of grilling recipes uses lean meats and vegetarian dishes to deliver the smoky, natural flavor only a grill can provide. While many classic grill-top recipes are nutritional train wrecks, grilling also has a dirty little secret - it's an inherently low-fat method of cooking. Lamb, beef, poultry, veggie sides, marinades and rubs, and even dessert - it's all here. Also included is an extensive section on techniques, methods, and equipment, with photos and illustrated steps. A grilling master class and cookbook in one, Sizzle and Smoke is perfect for the backyard BBQ chef looking to cut calories and inches without cutting out the fun and flavor.
Diabetes Carb Control Cookbook
by Nancy S. HughesFor people with diabetes, especially the 15.8 million people in the United Sates on medication or insulin, eating a consistent amount of carbohydrates at every meal is an essential part of meal planning. Unfortunately, carb-counting requires either a lot of math or reliance on vague meal-planning tools like exchanges and servings that can confuse as much as they clarify. With Diabetes Carb Control Cookbook, best-selling author Nancy S. Hughes makes mealtime math a thing of the past. This innovative new collection combines a cookbook, meal planner, and carb counter into one seamless system for people with diabetes. Each recipe is designed to provide 15 grams of carb per serving, and each chapter organizes foods based on type of dish. Readers looking for a side dish with 15 grams of carbs to round out the dinner can go right to the appropriate section. With over 150 recipes and hundreds of quick- or no-fix side suggestions, all designed to provide 15 grams of carbs, this is a cookbook no person with diabetes can do without.

by Jill WeisenbergerThe Overworked Person's Guide to Better Nutrition offers bite-sized nutrition tips for busy people with prediabetes, heart health concerns, or those who simply want advice for their everyday food and nutrition problems. Responding to the number-one excuse she hears from clients who have trouble staying healthy - "I don't have time!" - educator and dietitian Jill Weisenberger built this busy-person's guide to nutrition and health to show that everyone feels busy, but healthy habits can fit with any schedule. To keep things quick and accessible, the book is built around 50 fun and informative tips, covering everything from resistant starches to the glycemic index.

Over 100 million people in the United States have prediabetes or diabetes, and nearly half of all Americans have at least one risk factor for heart disease. In chronic conditions like these, improved nutrition and weight loss can sometimes prevent, delay, or improve long-term complications. This book is filled with diet strategies for weight loss and overall better health that can help any one, on any schedule, eat and feel better.
The With or Without Meat Cookbook
by Jackie NewgentWith the growing evidence that vegetarian meals are great for your health, more people with diabetes are looking to build vegetarian dishes into their meal plans. However, not everyone is ready to give up meat completely, and most vegetarians live with someone who's not ready to take the plunge. Thus was born the "flexitarian," someone who eats mainly vegetarian food, but occasionally fits in a little meat, poultry, or fish. Catering to this growing crowd -- nearly one in four Americans self-identifies as a flexitarian -- The With or Without Meat Cookbook makes it simple for people to savor the tastes and health benefits of eating more like a vegetarian, while being able to stick to a balanced meal plan for diabetes. Each of the 125 diabetes-friendly recipes is vegetarian with a non-vegetarian recipe "add-on" provided as well. Each recipe can be made two ways: One way for veggie lovers and one way for meat lovers. For those with diabetes, pre-diabetes, heart health issues, or simply looking to improve their diet, the flexitarian approach provides the best of both worlds. Nutrition facts are provided and each perfectly-portioned recipe follows ADA's nutritional guidelines.
