Take the tour ×  I am a private chef and will have to cook for
16 days for a person recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
The meals I'm required to prepare are lunch and dinner. There
will be six people and dinners are served family style.  I have
occasionally cooked for the family in the past and the meals
have always been simple, eclectic and very healthy made from the
highest quality ingredients which I have access to. I have never
baked for this family and don't see any reason to start now.
What I need is information and resources on low-glycemic,
diabetic diets. We also love to eat creative, fun and
interesting foods so that should make it easier. I'm just
curious what ideas are there, so please share.  share|improve
