In ever other way I'd rather just cook yummy, healthy dishes rather than just focus on a way to make things "diabetes friendly."<br /><br />I kinda feel like those books must be more geared Laynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14691790495158501781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773372806308930207.post-54335391013352524662010-03-03T16:58:42.109-05:002010-03-03T16:58:42.109-05:00I have tons of cookbooks, you'd think I was a ...I have tons of cookbooks, you'd think I was a great cook; I'm not.

I try to just watch what I eat and keep to small portions of things that have sugar and carbs, etc. I can't use splenda as it makes me sick, and I'm finding that many of the "low carb" products are full of splenda...it really limits my choices, but oh well...<br />blessings<br />~*~Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997549543731061699noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3773372806308930207.post-75201751725509886572010-03-03T10:37:41.821-05:002010-03-03T10:37:41.821-05:00My view of a good Type 1 diabetic cookbook would b...My view of a good Type 1 diabetic cookbook would be one that broke down the carbs for you in a meaningful way (like weight as you see on nutritional labels) and one that gave lovely bolus and extended bolus tips.

(I'd never cooked from dried beans before!)<br /><br />I have a collection of diabetic ones, too - they often have healthier recipes in a general sense (less fat, less sodium, etc.) and I'm happy to do healthier!
