Summary: More Diabetic Meals in 30 Minutes--Or Less!
Review: I got this book from the library and like it so much, I'm ordering one for myself. [A couple of weeks ago, I accidently ordered the first one, and it has its merits too, so I'm not disappointed. The first book (same title except for the word "More") has a section on tips at the beginning of the book and 5 meal menus at the end of the book.] I love the recipes in this book, particularly the grilling recipes--I use a family size Foreman grill. Most of the recipes call for ingredients that I usually keep on hand, and the ones I have tried are very tasty. One caveat: Check the carbohydrate count before you decide to use a recipe. Many of the desserts in particular are too high in carbohydrates for diabetics. (Most recipes are pretty good in the fat and sodium levels.) I wish these books had more complete menus like the 5 in the first book. (This book has no menus.)

Summary: Mainly for families
Review: Shortly after being diagnosed as a diabetic, I ordered several cookbooks including both this book and its predecessor. The recipes in both books seem to be wonderful and quick. However, we have not used either book very much because almost all recipes are for 6 or more servings. We are two people; they just don't work for us. More menus also would be helpful, especially to the newly diagnosed. Only one book (the first one) has menus, and they are mainly for entertaining.

Summary: More Diabetic Meals in 30 Minutes- or Less!
Review: The wide variety of recipes for the Diabetic, and the health conscious takes the meal preparer from dips, through main course and dessert. All the exchanges are readable on the recipe page as well as preparation time. With this one book, I use all the different recipes, they can be presented so well, no one at my dinner table knows I am a Diabetic cooking for a Diabetic,rather that I cook tasty meals we all enjoy. Thank you
