This cookbook was written to add variety and imagination to readers' diets. Favorite everyday and special occasion recipes are given to make meals more pleasurable and the diets easier to follow. This cookbook has been compiled through the efforts of many individuals at the Cleveland Clinic Foundation. Renal patients submitted many recipes, and all recipes have been tested in the Cleveland Clinic Foundation Department of Nutrition Therapy test kitchen. Dialysis and pre-dialysis patients use this book. It contains 288 recipes for holidays and entertaining as well as for everyday use. Directions are easy to follow and printed in extra-large type. Recipes are modified for sodium, potassium, protein and fluid control. Most recipes use ingredients already at hand; only a few dietetic foods are required.

In my case, I am cooking for two people, so I have taken to entering the recipes into MasterCook 8 so I can tailor them if needed. As a result, I often find the numbers are wrong in the back of the book. Usually MasterCook numbers will match 1 or 2 of the book's assessment. This causes concern when a person has to ...

However, it was published in 1985 and I question whether the extensive use of sugar is intentional or, because it was published before many of the sugar substitutes were on the market, this was the only option. I have a diabetic husband who has kidney problems but is not to the point of needing dialysis. I am confused if these recipes should be used for him. I tried some of the recipes and they were very ... Read More Rating:  - THE CLEVELANDFOUNDATIONCREATIVECOOKINGFOR RENALDIABETICDIETS RECIPES ARE GOOD.
