Lickety-Split Diabetic Meals

I saw one of her healthy cooking presentations in Idaho. I loved what she showed us and told us about Diabetes and cooking. This cookbook is full of wonderful and quick recipes for Diabetic meals and snacks.

I bought this book to learn to cook healthy but yummy meals for my diabetic beloved and it is my favorite of all the diabetic cookbooks I have purchased. The author presents the recipes in a clear and easy to follow manner and the nutrition/diabetic exchange information is very accessible. Many of the meals are very simple and easy to prepare with items that can be kept stocked in the pantry (including a helpful list of items to keep on hand), making it convenient to whip up something healthy with minimal preparation. Quick tips for healthy lifestyle changes are interspersed between the recipes and are presented in an entertaining and enthusiastic way that make them less intimidating and preachy than those I have encountered in other diabetic cookbooks. Our favorites are the homemade turkey sausages, breakfast casserole and breakfast cookies, all of which have become staples in our household. The plastic ring binding is great for keeping the book open to the page you are using while cooking. I highly recommend this cookbook.

I bought this product for work to use with my diabetes patients when teaching. I really like the tips and how many calories and carbohydrate servings are in a recipe.

Yes, the recipes are the same as her original edition, modified for Diabetic preparations & they are still fabulous! Zonya has a way of walking you through the meal preparations that allows you to come home have crazed from a busy day & still put up a terrific meal, lickety-split. Now, if you have the original book, as I do & prefer to adjust the recipes, you could certainly do that. However, if you are busy, as I am, having it done for you is indeed a gift from Zonya. Why not buy the new version and introduce a friend to Lickety-Split Meals? There are a few more tips in the Diabetic edition and those are simply genius. Buy IT!

This cookbook calls for alot of canned meats. Not too many recipes made from fresh meat. I like the fitness tips etc it has throughout the book to make it a well rounded weight loss solution.

What a great book for those who are not terribly knowledgeable about Diabetes & what's at stake (even for those who are!). It has food plans, menus, counts, carbs, etc. etc. etc. ALL LISTED! I showed this to my husband's diabetes nurse, & she took all info & was to order it, too. THE BEST book out as far as "how to eat" is concerned. Although beef is not the meat "of choice", I would like to have had a few more recipes with beef. Other than that, it's terrific.

It really does not have many good menus for low carb and diet stuff for us...I was kinda disappointed...one more word required

This is a very informative book for anyone who has diabetes or even pre-diabetes. The recipes are easy to follow and don't take a lot of prep time. I also love the author's positive attitude! There is a shopping list in the back of the book that is very helpful as well.
