Diabetic Recipes

Can you please show some recipes that would be diabetic-friendly, especially with less sweetener in the desserts. --Irene
Hi Irene.  I’m sorry, at this time we don’t have any recipes that are specifically developed to be diabetic-friendly. But I urge you to check out the website of the American Diabetes Association at www.diabetes.org. Their “Food & Fitness” section has a lot of excellent advice on healthy cooking in general and cooking for diabetes patients in particular. In addition, www.diabetic-recipes.com has a large number of diabetic-friendly recipes in all categories.

    Zucchini Desserts
    Do you have a recipe for any zucchini desserts? I think my mom tried zucchini in a pie instead of apple and it tasted just like apple. I have a recipe for bread, but that is it. Thanks, --Anishka
