Of the many cookbooks for diabetics, this book is the only one on African-American cooking, according to the American Diabetes Association.

Cait and her husband, Doug, developed a fascination with the American South and its food when they moved stateside from their native Canada.

They travel each year to The South to eat cooking like the dishes described in this book: barbecue pulled pork, fried okra, orange sweet potatoes, shrimp jambalaya - Cajun, Creole soul food favorites!

Now Cait can eat healthy versions of these at home knowing that each recipe adheres to the new nutrition guidelines of the American Diabetes Association and is guaranteed to be low in saturated fat.

As a teaser, we’re giving you the recipe for the Soul Food Corn Pudding, which The Washington Post said was the most flavorful, and had the fewest calories, of four low-fat corn puddings their cooking writers tried. And it takes less than an hour to make and bake.
