This morning I went to one of my favorite haunts in town, my local Salvation Army, to look for some reading material since I'm getting low. I really was not even looking for anything on Diabetes in particular, but walking by the books on foods and cooking I came across six books banded in elastic bands. Since I do love to try my hand with cooking and different recipes, the words "Recipes For Diabetics" caught my eye.

Needless to say with being newly diagnosed and still confused about what I can and cannot eat, I dove for the books

Here's the titles of the books that were in the cookbook lot:

The Complete Diabetic Cookbook by Mary Jane Finsand.

Taste of Home's Down-Home Diabetic Cookbook.

Gourmet Recipes for Diabetics by Billie Little & Victor G. Ettinger, M.D.

Real Food for People With Diabetes by Doris Cross with Alice Williams.

American Diabetes Association's Holiday Cookbook.

BH&G Diabetic Cookbook.

Quick & Easy Diabetic Recipes by Anne C. Cain.

Now that I have seen some of the things that I can eat that actually have flavor, I'm starting to see that I don't have to resign myself to a lifetime of flavorless foods.

Right now getting these cookbooks means the world to me, I'm just so excited that I had to let you all know

Have A Great & Healthy Weekend!

Hi Barry
Nice one, sounds like you got a bargain. There isn't anything we can't eat so long as we bolus for it, all i would say is be carefull of certain foods like takeaways and stuff. We can still enjoy them but they do tend to have shedloads of carbs in.

Hi Azz, I do love getting a good bargain
I think I visit a takeaway food place maybe once or twice a year, as I'm not too keen on the way their staff prepares food.

Have A Great Day & Be Healthy!
