A person with diabetes can still enjoy Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and Christmas treats including Beef Pot Roast, Bourbon-Glazed Fruit & Nut Stuffed Pork Roast, and Roasted Butternut Squash with Pecans. These are but a few of the dozens of innovative and tempting dishes available in the dLife recipe box.

What recipes tantalized our famous friends with diabetes? Kevin Covais picked Three Kings Colorful Quesadillas. Gary Hall, Jr. chose Irish Christmas Corned Beef and Cabbage. Nicole Johnson kept with tradition with Champagne-Roasted Turkey and Jim Turner selected Winter Grilled Corn on the Cob.

"For people with diabetes, the holidays are a tough time to make healthy eating decisions. In fact, people with diabetes often feel left out or bummed out during big holiday meals and celebrations," says dLife founder Howard Steinberg. "We appreciate these terrific celebrities, who are leaders in the diabetes community. They have shared their personal stories of dealing with diabetes, including sharing their favorite of our holiday recipes. Hopefully others will be inspired to look up great holiday foods that are 'carb safe' to eat."
