Friends with food and diabetes
“Scroll down to view the The Low Carb Crowd Pleaser Cookbook for free! I hope you enjoy the recipes!” - Kristin Loyd
Many social gatherings, such as potlucks, holidays, birthdays, game days, barbeques, have foods that are high in carbohydrates. The foods that are high in refined processed carbohydrates are easy to make and cheaper to buy. That creates a social dilemma for people who are trying to accomplish good thing for their bodies with low carb eating.
Social Dilemma #1 If you are hosting the gathering, then you can control the foods presented and served. However, low carb items will require your cooking. The recipes are not ornate and tedious, because you do not want to be either stuck in the kitchen or exhausted when you have other people to enjoy. The best part is that your guests are going to love your food. My social advice: Do not tell anyone that it is low carb because no one is enchanted when you say “that is a diabetic food.” Watch the conversion of others as they taste and enjoy your low carb dishes.
Social Dilemma #2 If you are attending to someone else’s party, then you are likely going to have a whole host of sabotaging foods. At any of these events, you could possibly find a perfect reason to eat that noddy food. If there was an awkward potluck at work, you might eat to pass the social anxiety. If there was a holiday, then you would eat to feel included. If there was a birthday, then you could eat to celebrate. If there was a barbeque, then you could find yourself munching while waiting on the meat to cook. If there was a big ball game day, then you could make a lot of trips to the appetizers during commercials. The best option is to bring your own food and have all your recipes handy for when they ask for them.
I have been in your shoes and that is why I created this cookbook. You do not have to be diabetic to love this cookbook. But, if you are diabetic, then you will want to have this book. It provides you 40 recipes to keep in your back pocket for all of your social jambories that your friends, family and associates will love and your healthy body will love too.
