An enthusiastic and valued addition  [Posted on 2006-10-04]
More than twenty million Americans have diabetes. One of the critical factors in the prevention and control of diabetes is the diet. Now in a newly revised and expanded second edition, "Diabetic Meals In 30 Minutes - Or Less!" from the American Diabetes Association offers a compendium of recipes that are thoroughly 'kitchen cook friendly' in their preparation and are characterized by their flavor and nutrition, as well as being ideal for diabetics while at the same time satisfying the appetite and pleasing the palate of every once else at the table too. From Oriental Ginger Pot; Angel Hair Pasta with Tomato Seafood Cream Sauce; and Grilled Turkey with Garlic Sauce; to Snow Peas with Waterchestnuts and Bamboo; Oven-Baked Parmesan Zucchini; and Chocolate Spice Pudding, "Diabetic Meals In 30 Minutes - Or Less!" is an enthusiastic and valued addition to any diabetic's cookbook shelf.

Phenominal Book and Recipes [Posted on 2007-11-11]
I used to say I'd eat what I wanted and just take more insulin. As I have gotten older, not sure about the wiser part, I have learned I must work with my diabetes if I plan to live. This book is an invaluable tool for doing that. Great meals made easily--even after a hard day at work. I love this book and the Italian Diabetic Meals in 30 Minutes or Less, also by Webb. Buy it and enjoy some delicious and healthy meals.

Great all around cookbook! [Posted on 2008-06-24]
I originally purchased this cookbook for my Dad, who is a Type II Diabetic and normally doesn't cook much since Mom died. I flipped through it and tagged at least 15 different recipes that I wanted to try for myself. This is a great all around cookbook for several reasons:

* all of the recipes use nutritious, natural foods that are readily available
* most of the recipes call for only a few ingredients, so even those new to cooking will be successful
* the basic dishes are done in no time and can be frozen
* the recipes can be easily doubled or tripled
* it offers a delicious variety that are delightful and satisfying

I'm a professional firefighter/paramedic and I can tell you from experience that Type II Diabetes is in fact, becoming an epidemic. Firefighters have to watch what we eat as well, which is not always easy, because we need it to be fast, filling and able to withstand being reheated over and over again (since mealtime is usually interrupted). High fat, high salt and high cholesterol may be tasty, but they'll kill you. This book offers wonderful recipes that fit the bill and I should know - I've made them with fantastic results!
