A good friend and neighbor, a former RN, is a long-time diabetic. I once asked her this very same question because, as she and her DH are elderly, I sometimes prepare a special meal for them.
She guided me to a cookbook produced by the American Diabetes Association. You can find sources for good recipes and information at their website.
The amazing discovery for me was that a diabetic-friendly diet was really low glycemic, being conscious of natural sugars in foods and balancing carbs and proteins.
