Product Description
Here is a calorie/carbohydrate-controlled collection of delicious, hassle-free meals to make meal planning a breeze. Based on a 1,500-calorie-a-day menu, every breakfast, lunch, and dinner recipe balances the reader's meal plan perfectly. Every mealspecific recipe includes the same number of carbs no matter which one readers pick--they get 45-60 grams for every breakfast, 60-75 grams for every lunch, and 70-85 grams for every dinner--which helps keep blood sugar levels stable. Readers can mix and match recipes to their tastes. Includes more than 50 breakfasts, 50 lunches, 75 dinners, and 30 snacks. This new edition includes complete nutrition analysis and carbohydrate counts for every meal and recipe.

 A popular addition to any diabetic's cookbook collection April 8, 2003
12 out of 13 found this review helpful
Proper meal planning is more than a just good nutritional practice for a healthy lifestyle. For diabetics, proper eating is a vital element and mandatory aspect for the care and control of their medical condition. Now in an updated and expanded second edition, the American Diabetes Association's Magic Menus For People With Diabetes continues to be a complete and authoritative reference and resource for complete meal planning offering diabetes appropriate menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks. Clear and concise directions are provided for adjusting calorie levels to individual needs. Also provided are carb totals for each meal and snack because keeping carb totals consistent affects keeping blood glucose levels in check. From Easy Spud Breakfast; Veggie Pizza; and Chicken-Fried Steak with Pan Gravy; to Light and Creamy Yogurt Pie; Bean Burgers; and Macedonia Fruit Cup, Magic Menus For People With Diabetes will prove to be a popular addition to any diabetic's cookbook collection.
 Very good menus and recipes March 2, 2001
25 out of 26 found this review helpful
This book is as advertised (actually, has more variety and more actually usable recipes without a lot of specialty ingredients or weird things the kids in the family will refuse than I expected).75 Dinners, 50 Lunches, 50 Breakfasts and 30 Snacks. Not a good book for Type 2 diabetics lmiting carbs (each meal is 50 grams of carbohydrates or more)--and definitely not for low carb dieters limiting themselves to 20 carbs a day. The intent of the book is to take some of the guess work out of meal planning. It fails to get 5 stars from me because I would prefer nutrition counts for each recipe instead of for each menu, probably unfair of me given book title but my family needs count exact carbohydrates and does not use the exchange system.
