Gladys,
My mother also was just diagnosed with adult-onset diabetes. I know from hearing about her Thanksgiving that she particularly missed the pumpkin pie so I searched the internet for a recipe so she wouldn't be disappointed at Christmas. She said this tasted just like the real thing! I found it on a Famous Brand Names site . They have many recipes adapted for diabetic cooking. Good luck and best wishes for the new year.
