Dear friend,
Over the years the test kitchen has developed recipes focusing on many dietary needs, from gluten-free and paleo to Mediterranean, vegetarian, and vegan. With our latest cookbook, [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( we aim to serve the 30 million Americans who are living with diabetes or prediabetes, a number that is climbing. Diabetes can be controlled and prediabetes can even be cured with healthy eating, but the challenge is more complicated than just cutting sodium and sugar and controlling carbs.
Since we are cooks and not medical professionals, we worked closely with Dr. Dariush Mozaffarian, a world-renowned nutrition scientist, cardiologist, and professor at the Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy at Tufts University, and Alicia Romano, a registered dietician at the Frances Stern Nutrition Center at Tufts Medical Center. The two developed a very specific set of parameters for our test cooks that limited refined carbohydrates, empty calories, sugar, and unhealthy fats.
Our new [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( features 400+ great-tasting recipes, all meticulously tested to fit a diabetic diet and to please everyone around your table. They deliver maximum nutritional value by following a recommended ratio of 10 grams of carbohydrates to 1 gram of fiberâor better. From appetizers and snacks to main dishes and even special desserts, weâve got you covered with double the number of recipes found in many other diabetes cookbooks. Every recipe is kitchen-tested so you know it works and tastes great.
Get your copy of [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( today directly from our test kitchen and [save 30%](. Because eating diabetes-friendly food is a necessity for some, and preferable for many more, we want you to have access to your new recipes anytime and on any device. The test kitchen will give you a pdf version your new cookbook right away so you can start cooking the recipes tonight.
Cook well and care for yourself and the people you love.

Cooking Science Meets Nutrition Science
“
By incorporating the latest advances in nutrition science with their tested approach to pragmatic cooking, Americaâs Test Kitchen has created engaging, accessible recipes that emphasize not only health but also convenience, taste, color, and creativity. The recipes also recognize that cookingâand eatingâshould prioritize well-being over weight loss, quality over quantity, and delight over austerity. Read, cook, eat, and enjoy!
From the foreword of The Complete Diabetes Cookbook, written by Dariush Mozaffarian, MD, DrPH
Itâs nearly impossible for the average person to sift through the varied and often conflicting recommendations about whatâs healthy and whatâs not. The thorough âGetting Startedâ chapter in [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( provides an overview of type 1 and type 2 diabetes and prediabetes for those less familiar with the condition and explains the principles behind our recipe development:
EMPHASIZE THE GOOD
Eat more minimally processed foods such as beans, nonstarchy vegetables, nuts, seeds, and fruits rich in vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, phenolics, fiber, and other bioactives.
EMBRACE HEALTHY FATS
Unsaturated fats from plant oils improve glycemic control and other important risk factors, such as blood cholesterol levels.
HIGHLIGHT CARBOHYDRATE AMOUNT AND QUALITY
Mixing grains, pasta, rice, and sugars with other healthful ingredients (vegetables, beans, nuts, fruits, plant oils) slows digestion and further reduces spikes in blood sugar.
FOCUS ON FOODS, NOT CALORIES OR SINGLE NUTRIENTS
Judging a food or meal based on its total calories or a single nutrient greatly oversimplifies the complex influences foods have on long-term weight and metabolic health. Focus instead on eating more healthful, minimally processed foods.

All-New Recipes
Thirteen recipe chapters offer you satisfying options for every waking hour, from morning to night. All the recipes were reengineered to fit a diabetic diet based on parameters set by Dr. Mozaffarian, and they are not available on our member websites. Unlike some other diabetes cookbooks, ours offers realistic portions and lists the serving sizes, so thereâs no need to worry about skimpy meals that leave you hungry. And youâll find full nutritional information at the end of every recipe.
[Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup](
Creamy Broccoli Cheddar Soup
Swapping out regular cheddar for extra-sharp allows us to use less cheese without compromising the soupâs cheesy flavor. Recent research indicates that a low-fat diet is not necessary for people with diabetes or anyone elseâas long as the right type of fat is consumed. We use full-fat cheeses throughout [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( because they have better flavor.

notes from the test kitchen
Store-bought broths
Soup can be a nutritious option, but only if its sodium is in check. The biggest culprit is the broth. We call for unsalted and low-sodium broths in our recipes and amp up the soupsâ flavor in other creative ways so you wonât miss the salt. Here are our favorite store-bought broths:
Chicken Broth
We prefer chicken broth to vegetable broth and beef broth for its stronger, cleaner flavor and look for broth with a short ingredient list. Our winning unsalted chicken broth, Swanson Unsalted Chicken Stock ([Buy on Amazon]( contains 130 milligrams of sodium per cup. (The U.S. Department of Agricultureâs ceiling for low-sodium foods is 140 milligrams.)
Vegetable Broth
Though most vegetable broths on the market contain excessive amounts of salt, our winning commercial low-sodium vegetable broth, Edward & Sons Low Sodium Not-Chickân Natural Bouillon Cubes ([Buy on Amazon]( contains 130 milligrams of sodium per cup. This broth contains yeast extract, which is full of glutamates and nucleotides that boost savory umami flavor. It is an important ingredient for manufacturers of low-sodium products, as it enhances the perception of saltiness without any increase in salt.
Beef Broth
We have found that the best beef broths have flavor-enhancing ingredients such as tomato paste and yeast extract near the top of their ingredient list and include concentrated beef stock. We had good luck using Better Than Bouillon Reduced Sodium Beef Base, which contains 510 milligrams of sodium per serving (their traditional Beef Base contains 680 milligrams).
[Lemony Penne with Chicken, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, and Artichokes](
Lemony Penne with Chicken, Sun-Dried Tomatoes, and Artichokes
A lighter pasta dish with fiber-rich artichokesâfrozen ones contain less sodium than canned or marinated onesâand savory enhancers such as lemon juice and zest, white wine, fresh basil, and sun-dried tomatoes. All the pasta recipes in [The Complete Diabetes Cookbook]( call for 100% whole-wheat pasta (which contains protein, fiber, and vitamins that refined white flour lacks) and balance the pasta with healthy vegetables and proteins.
[One-Pan Pork Chops and Vegetables with Parsley Vinaigrette](
One-Pan Pork Chops and Vegetables with Parsley Vinaigrette
An easy weeknight meal full of incredible flavor with plenty of roasted vegetables, including unpeeled potatoes and whole garlic cloves (we said it was easy!). Season with lots of fresh rosemary, paprika, and coriander and serve with a vinaigrette full of bright flavor and olive oil (people who regularly include healthy fats such as olive oil in their diets have reduced rates of diabetes).
[Make it in your slow cooker! - Chicken with Warm Potato and Radish Salad](
Chicken with Warm Potato and Radish Salad
A fresh take on a chicken and potato dinner, our recipe delivers herb-topped chicken and a vinaigrette-style potato salad that cook through in the same amount of time.

Desserts and Baked Goods
These diabetes-friendly treats, including Pomegranate and Nut Chocolate Clusters, Maple-Caramel Apples, No-Fuss Banana Ice Cream, and Whole-Wheat Blueberry Muffins, center on fruits, nuts, dark chocolate, whole-wheat flour, and less refined sugar and should be reserved for special occasions. It is recommended that diabetes-friendly desserts be eaten as part of a meal (instead of on their own) to aid in delayed digestion and glucose tolerance at that meal.
[Holiday Cookies](
Holiday Cookies
A simple but unconventional method (even by test kitchen standards) allowed us to cut the sugar in our favorite holiday cookie recipe in half without sacrificing texture or aesthetics.
notes from the test kitchen
Using a sugar substitute
Our goal is to use real foods such as granulated sugar and to show that they can fit into a diabetes diet with careful meal planning and portion control. At the end of the day, sweets should not play a big role in a diabetic meal plan. They contain carbohydrates, and keeping tabs on total carbohydrate intake and balancing those carbohydrates is what matters most.
