In my book, Practical Diabetes Cookbook and Meal Plans, I will show you how to make easy, delicious recipes and meal plans to manage your blood sugar levels in a sustainable way.

I was inspired to write this cookbook from my dear Uncle Phil. He battled diabetes in the last two decades of his life. He always loved my cooking. I was given the task to find foods that he enjoyed while also helping to adjust to his ever-changing blood sugar level needs. I enjoy cooking, and I enjoy writing – so why not combine the two?

Do you have a sweet tooth? I have a recipe for that!

 I will give you practical advice for creating a practical meal plan that works for you so you can stick to it. I will even provide you with 30-days of menus for breakfast, lunch, dinner, and snacks, including some sweet treats that won’t break the glycemic index.

I also give you over 55 easy, unique, and delicious recipes for you to try.

Ingredients

5 russet potatoes

¼ cup of extra-virgin olive oil

½ cup of grated Parmesan cheese

Salt and freshly ground black pepper

Preparation

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Peel potatoes and cut into half-inch thick (lengthwise) strips, then cut into ½-inch thick fries. Place the potatoes in a pot with 1 tablespoon of salt and cover the potatoes with cold water. Bring to a gentle boil, then reduce to low heat and cook until a paring knife tip can easily pass through, and the potatoes are cooked about 3/4 of the way through.

3. Drain them well and place them in a mixing bowl. Add ½ teaspoon of black pepper, 1 tablespoon of salt, and olive oil into the mix. Toss properly and place in 1 layer on a non-stick baking sheet. Bake until light brown.

4. Sprinkle with Parmesan and bake for another 6 or 7 minutes, or until well-browned and crispy, and the cheese is melted and caramelized. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool for 2 minutes. Serve with sugar-free ketchup or the condiment of your choice.
