Even though the Food Exchanges are not included, the calories, fat and carbohydrates are listed. If you're working on tight control you'll be able to count carbs or, at the very least, get advice from a member of your health care team about the analysis and how it fits into your eating plan. Author Patti Lynch, an art broker from Issaquah, Washington, expanded her creative efforts into recipe development several years ago when her husband, Ron, was diagnosed with diabetes. These fruit juice-sweetened desserts are a diabetic's dream come true. Each delicious recipe is characterized with Patti's warm anecdotal histories about its origin.
Recipes are easy to make and illustrated with line drawings.
This feature alone is worth the price of the book. All recipes come with complete nutritional analyses and food exchanges. This should be a good variety for your holiday shopping list. Until next time, I wish you all the happiness of coming home for the holidays.
