PLATTSBURGH,
N.Y., /PRNewswire/ -- Finding delicious, nutritious and easy-to-prepare meals just became much easier for the approximately 20 million Americans who live with diabetes. Today, Home Bistro, the leading provider of chef-prepared frozen meals, based in
Plattsburgh,
New York, introduces a new line of diabetes-friendly meals.

Home Bistro teamed up with the nutritional experts at EatingWell-Media Group to develop the new diabetes-friendly line. EatingWell is the publisher of EatingWell Magazine, The EW Diabetes Cookbook and www.eatingwell.com. Drawing upon EatingWell's expertise, Home Bistro chefs chose combinations of proteins, vegetables, starches and seasonings to create meals that fall within widely accepted diabetic guidelines. Additionally, nutritional tools available on the Home Bistro Web site (www.homebistro.com) make meal planning and calorie counting quick and easy.

The result is a meal both high in nutrition and high on taste, with options such as:
-- Grilled Mahi Mahi with Peach and Melon Sauce
-- Grilled Citrus Chicken with Lime Pineapple Cilantro Sauce
-- Poached Salmon with Fire-Roasted Tomato Coulis
Exercise and regular scheduling are also important components to healthy eating and living. Finding the time to shop, prepare meals and follow an exercise regimen can be challenging, particularly for those living with diabetes, who know staying on schedule is almost as important as what they eat.
"With busy schedules, the prospect of preparing a healthy meal can be daunting," says Home Bistro Executive Chef Scott Stillman. "Home Bistro meals go from freezer to table in 10 minutes because our chefs do the shopping and chopping for you. What we do make is a great, fast option for main meals, making it that much easier to eat well and stay on meal schedules."

Home Bistro's executive chefs have spent years in the
U.S. and abroad perfecting a cooking method called "sous-vide." The secret to the company's success, the sous-vide process allows food to be cooked to perfection in Home Bistro's kitchen, and then vacuum-sealed to preserve freshness and taste. At- home preparation is as easy as placing the meals in simmering water for 10 minutes. For more information, please visit www.homebistro.com or call 1-800- 628-5588 for a catalog.
