Description
New studies show that about 90% of non-diabetics have blood sugar dysregulation—which means out-of-whack hunger hormones, chronic inflammation (the cause of most diseases), and always being in the dreaded fat-storing mode, even if you’re eating minimal calories and making “healthy” food choices. The balance of what you put on your plate is vital.
In The Blood Sugar Balance Cookbook, beloved Instagram influencer Meredith Mann of @thepeachiespoon provides recipes that taste like the high-glycemic favorites you love but keep your blood glucose levels stable. Each recipe in the book includes nutritional information so you know you are getting the carbs, protein, and fat you need. Also find tips and tricks for keeping your blood sugar in the low-glycemic, weight-balancing zone.
Keep your blood sugar balanced with options like:
- Protein Cheesecake Parfait
- Pesto Protein Muffins
- Breakfast Meatballs
- Smoked Salmon Toast
- Chicken Spinach Artichoke Bake
- Caprese Sheet Plan Meal
- High Protein Alfredo
- Baked Zuppa Toscana
- Mediterranean Beef Stew
- Pad Thai
- Strawberry Matcha Smoothie
Get off the blood sugar roller coaster and feel great with The Blood Sugar Balance Cookbook.

I immediately went to Mann's Instagram after reading through this cookbook! What a gem of a person. I love what she does in the kitchen and how she makes the food accessible to a non-chef! I have a bunch of fresh bowls and salads to make. Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC. A truly beautiful and helpful book for my health and well-being.
I have been looking for more recipes that are better for blood sugar. I found this book to be helpful. It was very informative and provided a lot of background information on blood sugar and how to control it. The recipes in the book are delicious and I could definitely see myself making these on a regular basis. Not only do I have many new recipes to make, but I have a better understanding of blood sugar and how to make healthy lifestyle and diet changes. I would recommend this book.
I received an ARC of this cookbook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.
This is a wonderful cookbook full of delicious looking recipes. But it's more than just a cookbook. It also has a lot of helpful advice on how to balance your blood sugar without having to be obsessive about what you eat!
A neat, wholesome, and well-structured book with accessible and enjoyable recipes.
The blood sugar balance aspect is a bonus and I appreciate that it will be a major reason why many people pick this up.
I am SO excited about this cookbook! I've recently been learning about eating in a way to balance blood sugar but have had the hardest time finding recipes that are high in protein and fiber, but lower in carbs. "The Blood Sugar Balance Cookbook" provides tons of simple recipes that actually look like food I would like to eat. I love that the nutrition facts are included, especially fiber- a micronutrient that is often left out in traditional cookbooks. I'm going to meal plan using this book next week and will report back once I try recipes!
Lovely cookbook. Very cleanly organized and crisp layout with nice color scheme. The recipes are well written and easy to follow. Good inclusion of nutrition facts. The photos are appetizing. It’s great that it includes breakfast, lunch, dinner, dessert -and those smoothies!!!! I love that there is a month meal plan at the end- that’s the best part!
This is a BEAUTIFUL cookbook! It is packed with simple recipes that not only look delicious but are HEALTHY! I cannot wait to try these!
*Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with an ARC*
As a person who is always looking for healthier alternatives and ways to reduce things like sugar and salt so this book really grabbed my attention. And not only does this book give you recipes but it gives you all the information you need on controlling blood sugar which is great and is good to reference when you need to.
I will certainly be cooking some of the tasty and delicious recipes in this book and taking note of some of the valuable advise and tips. A great book for anyone that likes to keep healthy and eat healthy.
Thank you NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group – Fair Winds for giving me the opportunity to read and review this book.
I have been hypoglycemic since 2014, and my life since then has been all about balancing my blood sugar. I loooove this cookbook, not only for the fabulous and understandable, easy-to-make recipes, but also for the excellent information that the author gives at the beginning of the book. I have this saved in my "to purchase" file for October 8!
Thanks to Netgalley, the author, and publisher, for an advanced reading copy in exchange for my honest review.
This was a very informative and well put together cookbook. I definitely will be making the powerbowls and many of the dinners!
Thank you to the publisher and NetGalley for the ARC.
I particularly like how this cookbook is more than just a cookbook, it has education on blood sugar balance and macronutrients filled in too! I liked the illustration showing you a balanced plate. My main motivator to want to read this cookbook is because I had a grandfather who had diabetes and I remember as a child not understanding what all it entails, but this cookbook isn't solely for people with diabetes, I found some really great looking recipes for myself, and if I'm being honest could be way better with what I eat. Though I personally prefer a cookbook that has an image of every recipe, this one does not, but it has so many recipes I see why the opted to not have a photo for every single one. There are even options for flavor substitutes and dairy free option, which is great.
These recipes all look so easy & good! The Pizza Power Bowls& Chicken Spinach Artichoke Bake are already on my menu for next week!
I think that this is a great book for anyone who wants to focus on eating a little healthier or for someone who specifically wants to eat to balance their blood sugar.
The book starts out with an intro, some information on blood sugar balance and what that even means. This part is full of useful and great information and an important part of the book. After reading through that it moves into the recipes.
I feel like the recipes are laid out nicely. They displayed nicely on the page and easy to follow along to while cooking. Not ever recipe has an image but many of them do & the images are really beautiful. Some of the recipes have flavor swaps as well which is a nice addition to the recipe. One more thing that many cookbooks do not include that I loved is the nutrition information. I really like that they added this to the recipes. I felt like the ingredients are pretty common ingredients and things that I would actually use in my kitchen which is nice. There is a great variety of recipes and the one I have tried already are really good!
