Some of the recipes you'll find inside:
Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Swapping out regular cheddar for extra-sharp cheddar allows us to use less cheese without compromising the soup’s cheesy flavor. Recent research indicates that a low-fat diet is not necessary for people with diabetes or anyone else—as long as the right type of fat is consumed. We use full-fat cheeses throughout the Complete Diabetes cookbook because they have better flavor.
One-Pan Pork Chops and Vegetables with Parsley Vinaigrette
An easy weeknight meal full of incredible flavor with plenty of roasted vegetables, including unpeeled potatoes and whole garlic cloves (we said it was easy!). Season with lots of fresh herbs and serve with a vinaigrette full of bright flavor and olive oil.
Desserts and Baked Goods
Our diabetes-friendly treats, including Banana Ice Cream and Summer Peach Cake center on fruits, nuts, dark chocolate, whole-wheat flour, and less refined sugar and should be reserved for special occasions. It is recommended that diabetes-friendly desserts be eaten as part of a meal (instead of on their own) to aid in delayed digestion and glucose tolerance at that meal.
