Great recipes. I tried a couple; easy, and delicious. I can't wait to add this one to my growing cookbook collection.

This was a fantastic read! I'm intending on making lots of the recipes. It is jammed packed with a variety of low carb foods from breakfast to puddings. Each recipe has colourful pictures and easy instructions.

I must admit that I didn’t find this book in the least bit inspiring. I didn’t like the layout and thought it too wordy. All in all I found the presentation dated.

I received a copy of this cookbook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

This is a wonderful cookbook. It is filled with healthy, delicious looking recipes and the pictures are beautiful!

Well, this book certainly went a long way towards a lot of the promise of its title, but did very little for the rest. With it being a specific diabetes-quelling book I expected at least 40pp of how the recipes and techniques had been developed with that in mind, and a chunk of what all diabetics should have been told upon diagnosis. But no, this dashed straight into the recipes. And they provide for a very modern, contemporary look at home cooking – everything has been highlighted with one of many benefits, so all the dishes have flags for being quick, or gluten-free, or whatever applies; the air fryer and slow cooker get copious uses; and the whole thing has tips a-plenty about batch cooking, keeping things fresh and preventing food waste, if not swapping ingredients to your preference.

And it's a book that covers a lot of ground from the basic (get some veggies – mangle them – voila, salsa; dump stuff in yoghurt – voila, breakfast bowl) upwards. While never getting above and beyond the average household, some of it is still a little aspirational – I know of nobody who has yet succumbed and bought a vegetable spiralizer, and here in the UK I bet "instant-read meat thermometers" are still very thin on the ground.

There is a sense that this is a bit wasteful with literally every recipe getting a full-page photo, but the text comes with a fat-free yack-less presentation, so you gain that way. Sciencey bits (still with no intention of being strictly for the diabetic) are peppered throughout, adding to the value. But this must be deemed among the more user-friendly, amenable-to-all recipe books I've glanced at recently, which is why it deserves a high rating. While I didn't pull as many recipes from these pages for future reference as I expected (that Hawaiian chicken top of the crop) I can see this deserving its place as a go-to for copious consultation, no matter your insulin levels.

Four and a half stars as a great recipe guide, although quite useless if you want tips on being freshly diagnosed Type 1 or Type 2.

I received an advance copy of, Betty Crocker Simply Delicious Diabetes Cookbook, by Betty Crocker. This is a great cookbook, for people with diabetes or those just wanting to eat healthier. Whole Wheat-Oat pancakes with raspberry apple compote, sounds so delicious. They have breakfast, lunch, snack, and dinner recipes. Nobody does it better then, Betty Crocker!

As a diabetic myself, I was ready to review this cookbook with a critical eye. I was impressed with the cooking hints and the mention of air fryers which brings Betty Crocker into the modern world. Yet, there are still recipes calling for a can of mushroom soup. But... tofu.... and ethnic dishes! So my conclusion is that this will work as a cookbook for a family that just happens to have some diabetic members; it has recipes appealing to all generations.
I felt there were a lot of recipes that called for cans, frozen foods and other shortcuts where one could be using fresh produce or creating one's own. But for a busy family on a budget, perhaps this is a positive thing. I also cringed at the amounts of sugar in some of the recipes, but with the dietary/nutritional information clearly included, the reader can make her own choice.

This would make a good gift for both a newly diagnosed diabetic and for the diabetic looking for new ideas. The photographs are very appealing and inspirational as well.

Thank you to NetGalley for an advance copy of this cookbook.

This is an awesome cookbook for all potential readers. It is targeting diabetics clearly, but the discussion and focus of each recipe is great and applicable for all readers trying to focus on healthy meals that can be made by any cook at home. I love the "kitchen tips", "air fryer" options, and appetizing pictures to go with the recipes. I am very impressed and highly recommend.

This is a not fuss, no frills cookbook. It has a great deal of standard recipes for beef and chicken dishes as well as fish and the salad and appetizer selection is plenty as well. Betty Crocker books always do a great job of illustrating a majority of the recipes in rheir books and think this one does an excellent job of that as well. Plenty of options for desserts as well. No complaints here. The only thing I noticed were some weird dish choices such as buffalo Salmon and putting Honey O's on a strawberry dessert, other than some odd selections I thought the cookbook over all was done very nicely.

Thank you to Netgalley and publishers for this free e-arc in exchange for my honest review.

This is a pretty straightforward recipe book.

I was hoping for more pictures since I like to see what finished foods should look like and only some of the recipes had pictures. There's a good variety of recipes and some yummy things like fries and other foods. A lot of the recipes in this book use low-carb versions of carbs instead of cutting out the carbs completely. There's also desserts included in this book.

Overall an ok find.
