Chris: I borrowed this book from my town library and found so many recipes I wanted to try that I returned the book to the library and ordered one of my own. I paid for a used copy, but it was in better condition that the library's copy -- you'd never know it was used, except for a few bookmarks left in it. Very pleased.

K/T Rasmussen: Our son was recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. When this book arrived he began thumbing through it and was very excited to see many of his favorite meals included, classic Hummus, Creamy Deviled Eggs, Everyday Taco Salad, Roast Chicken, Chicken (sloppy) Joes, Mac 'n' Cheese, Chicken Cacciatore, Grilled Pork and Cheese Quesadilla, Indian Lamb Curry, Classic Free Form Meatloaf, Double Chocolate Brownies, & Old Fashion Peanut Butter Cookies.
Most of the ingredients are typical pantry items with a few new items that ought to be in a diabetics pantry. There are many "extras" in brown boxes through out the book like, Fast fixes for Rice, A Little Chocolate Goes a Long Way, How to Saute the Right way.
This book helps us know that we can learn to adapt our usual recipes, eat flavorful meals, help him, and us, eat right. Excited to start trying them.

H. Morrison: The carb counts in this book are WRONG. Some are seriously wrong. My 12 year old daughter is newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I got this book for her and she was grateful to have something with carbs listed, so she could plan her insulin shots and meals. She picked a recipe with black beans and rice, which had carbs listed at 6 g per 1 cup serving. She was so excited she could have two cups for 12 g. I stopped and looked at the meal, which was comprised entirely of rice with some black beans and spices and thought the count seemed wrong. Cooked rice AND black beans have carb counts of 43 g per cup. She started crying when I told her the book was wrong. She had one cup, gave herself appropriate insulin for 43 g and her later blood sugar checks made us glad we didn't believe THIS COMPLETELY INACCURATE CARB COUNT. I looked up another recipe; roast chick peas; also wrong. Chick peas are 80 g of carb per can; multiply by 2, divide by 8 servings, you get 20 g of carb per serving, not the 11 g the book states. It sells recipes to report low carb counts. This book could really hurt someone. I don't understand the ADA name on it. I don't actually understand how the book got this far...

Zenna Smith: Everything that you could possibly want in assisting you to provide healthy, nutrition rich comfort foods for pre-diabetic and diabetic diners can be found in Robyn Webb's THE DIABETES COMFORT FOOD COOKBOOK is here. Eye-catching photos of palate satisfying food recipes are organized into categories such as sides and salads, soups and stews, one pot and skillet meals, plus tasty pastas and, of course, desserts, are here with detailed instructions for preparing such foods. Exchange choices and the calories, fat, cholesterol, sodium, carbohydrate, fiber, sugar, and protein content are listed for each recipe at the bottom of that recipe. I really like roasted vegetables so enjoyed the roasted potatoes, carrots, and parsnips recipe, not to mention the braised cabbage and apples recipe. If you indulge in a favorite like mac and cheese, you'll enjoy the version presented here. Read, cook, and find out for yourself just how delectable these recipes are. Savor the trip in preparation as well as the end product. Amazon is amazing in offering this book online and so easy to purchase. Thank you Amazon for bringing this book to my door. Z. Smith
