I found this recipe in "Kids, Food, & Diabetes" Author is Gloria
Loring ISBN 0-8092-4956-1

I am not sure if this book is still in print, but for anyone that is a
diabetic whether it be a child or adult, Ms Loring has us given some
very very good recipes. Althought I am not a soup opera fan, she and
her ex-husband Alan Thicke (Canadian) are parents of a diabetic child.
