I would like to get some good but simple recipes. Something that you dont have to work all day to cook. I have never had a meal plan and not sure how you would even start one anyone have any ideas?

I try to stick to meals that aren't overly complicated with ingredients. One of my favorites is to take a bag of salad, add some veggies, croutons, sunflower seeds,etc.. and slice up some grilled chicken over the top. Add a little dressing and instant meal.

I am real new to this diabetic cooking. I was a big junk food junkie and drive thru's knew me by name! I am trying some recioes from dlife.com.
They are pretty simple. Also Weight Watchers has lots of new cookbooks that have simple and delicious recipes. I check them out from my library. I have to still have sweets on occasion and they have a lot of simple desserts.
Hope this helps. Okiegirl
