More Diabetic Recipes
Many people, upon learning that they have diabetes, have three immediate questions: How will this change my life? What medications will I need to take? What can I safely eat?
The first two questions are best answered by your doctor, nurse-practitioner, or health care provider, while the third question can be answered by the Registered Dietician that your health care provider has hopefully put you in touch with.
One website that I discovered with my better-half was first diagnosed is Diabetic Gourmet.
Here are some yummy recipes. Enjoy!

Stir the liquids into the dry ingredients. Add the egg, vanilla, cranberries, and walnuts; stir to mix.
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted in the top of the loaf comes out clean. Cool in the pan on a wire rack.
If time permits, let stand overnight for easy slicing. Cut the loaf into 18 slices.
