The Whole Foods Diabetic Cookbook
 |
|
From the back cover:
Welcome to the bountiful selection of plant-based foods and meat and dairy substitutes that can help you take an active role in managing your Diabetes.
Did you realize that controlling diabetes isn't just a matter of reducing the amounts of sugar you eat? Keeping your weight in check and reducing the amount of fat in your diet can also make it easier to stay healthy.
A vegetarian diet high in fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and beans and low in fats (especially animal fats) will:
- keep your blood sugar at a more constant level,
- make it easier for you to keep off unwanted weight, and
- provide delicious alternatives to high-fat treats.
If you're not sure how to add more meatless meals to your menu plan, these easy recipes will show you how to use an array of whole foods to prepare dishes that are as tasty as they are nutritious.
Learn how to create:
- delicious fruit smoothies and whole grain breakfasts
- whole grain muffins and biscuits
- hearty salads and light, good-for-you salad dressings
- easy lunchtime soups and sandwiches
- burgers, stir-frys, tacos, veggie pot pies
- guilt-free chocolate layer cake
Take the whole foods route to diabetes control!
