Besides the recipes themselves, the book features diabetic exchanges, menu planning, high calorie variations, Doctor's Notes and a section that cross-references recipes and side effects. Chapters are organized according to the phase of treatment and possible side effects.

Any patient undergoing chemotherapy will find this book to be an essential asset. The recipes are simple, tasty and easy to prepare.

2/3 cup powdered sugar

Pudding Layer: Mix pudding with milk and beat according to directions on package. After thickened, add vanilla. Spread on top of Cream Cheese Layer. Cover dessert with whipped topping.

Doc's Notes:
It is hard to believe this is low fat. Vanilla nutritional energy drink supplement can be substituted for the skim milk to turn this into a high calorie dessert. This is an easily tolerated choice.
