One of the most common questions people with diabetes ask is: How can I put together nutritionally balanced yet delicious dinners that satisfy me and my whole family?
To help, we've put together 11 diabetes meals that you can enjoy any night of the week. Each meal tastes great, has 600-700 calories, includes detailed nutrition information, and comes with a helpful tip to make planning your meals easier every day.
Our goal? To help you see just how easy it is to put together healthy meals for everyone who pulls a chair up to your table.

Sample meal plans are Waaaay too high in carbs! I gain weight on 50 mor more a day!! How about some common sense--we have diabetes b/c we can't handle lots of carbs. Think I'll head over to Atkins.com and check out their diabetes info.
8/16/2010 12:15:34 PM Report AbuseMost of these recipes you use fish as the main source of protein. What about 16 diabetic meals that contain no fish. There are a few of us that can not eat fish due to allergies. You can put flax on things to replace the Omega 3 you are not getting. Please come up with more creative recipes.
