I am so pleased to have found this book. Type II runs in our family, and I'm trying to prevent it, by being careful about carbs, and balancing them with protein. All the balancing work is done for you. Great to find a cookbook with easy recipes that taste good, and you won't have to eat it all week! It was just what I had been looking for. I've only had it a few days, and have already tried several recipes. And these easy recipes make you realize how easy it could be to create your own variations. As a singleton, I'm glad things serve one or two, and it gives me a better idea of what a right-sized portion should be.

Two of my best friends are diabetics! We often eat our meals together and I was having a tough time trying to find a good recipe that I could use and yet have the food taste good! I love this book....it is so easy to use. Anyone that does not want to fuss....should buy this book! I think it is wonderful!
For non-diabetics too

These no-fuss recipes are great for ANYONE! You don't have to have diabetes to try these great tasting recipes. And it was such a pleasure to have easy to prepare recipes with amounts to serve one or two people-what a great way to try out a recipe! It is much simpler to double up or increase the serving size of recipes than to divide or reduce a recipe. I think this book should be re-titled to "No-fuss Recipes for One or Two"
An Essential Cookbook for Diabetic "New" Cooks
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
"No-Fuss" is truly the best title for this cookbook. My 21 year old daughter, a college student, was diagnosed with Type I Diabetes recently. The dietician has her "counting carbs" and learning to identify slower-absorbing sources of carbohydrates. She is "new" to cooking, and these delicious recipes fit the trends of today's taste, ease of preparation, and are colorful and satisfying. We are hoping for "Book Two" to be out in a few years. Bravo to the writers!
No fuss Diabetic Recipes for 1 or 2

This is an excellent book of recipes that taste so good and are easy to make for diabetics and others. The authors are registered dietitians and a nutrient analysis is provided for each of the recipes. I bought the book for my mother-in-law who is diabetic and decided to keep it myself because the recipes are so good and so easy. It also has a section to help diabetics with planning their meals to meet their meal plan. I am a second year dietetic intern who will definitely recommend this book for my clients when I begin practicing in May 2000.
