<ul>
<li>Ultimate Grilled Cheeseburger Sandwich</li>
<li>Multigrain Pancakes and Vanilla Smoothies</li>
<li>Baked Potato Chips and Creamy Spicy Dip</li>
<li>Taco Salad</li>
<li>Grilled Ranch Chicken</li>
<li>Lobster Salad</li>
<li>Chocolate Cheesecake Mousse</li>
</ul>With this cookbook, you can meet the dietary challenges of diabetes with delicious-and doable-meals. From bag lunches and after-school snacks to birthday treats and holiday feasts, children with diabetes can enjoy mealtime as much as kids everywhere-every day of the year!
