The All-Natural Diabetes Cookbook: The Whole Food Approach to Great Taste and Healthy Eating by Jackie Newgent R.D. is a collection of plant-based, nutritiously well-rounded, simple-to-fix recipes. Now out in its second edition, the book has been updated to include vegetarian and quick-fix recipes, tips for achieving high flavor and suggested menus.

I love eating healthfully and thought this would be a good addition to my growing collection of diabetes-related cookbooks.

While pregnant with my second child I began to have trouble controlling my blood sugar. The last thing you want to resort to during pregnancy is artificial sweeteners so I went looking for a book that had great tasting recipes and natural ingredients.

I found a wonderful cookbook with this one, a cookbook we continue to use today even though my sugar issues are over.

Filled with recipes you'd never expect would be "allowed" on a diabetic diet, the book focuses on balancing carbs, sugars and fats to allow a normal diet full of good tasting foods. In addition it contains recipes using all natural ingredients and no sugar substitutes. Vegeterian dishes are also included.

Our favorite recipe so far are the New Fashioned Oatmeal Cookies.… (altro)
