Ideally, healthy recipes for diabetes should not only contain ingredients that are low in fat and carbohydrates, but should provide a good portion of nutrition as well. Dinner recipes in particular should contain a mix of non-starchy vegetables, whole-grains, and a healthy source of protein. Research shows that breakfast recipes should contain healthy portions of whole grains and protein, according to eHow.com. This is because they help to keep your blood sugar levels throughout the day.

It is best that healthy recipes for diabetes snacks be extremely low in carbohydrate. These can also provide an opportunity to include more vitamins and other forms of nutrition in your meals. Snack foods such as chips, cookies, and other foods which are high in calories should be avoided. Healthy recipes which include fruits and vegetables that contain little or no carbohydrate are best.
