Where can I find good recipes for a renal diet?

My brother recently had to start dialysis so his diet is pretty limited now. With Thanksgiving and Christmas a few months away I’m trying to find recipes that are healthy for him and tasty. He is also a diabetic so that also limits his diet.
Thanks for all the advice. I’ll definitely check out those websites and talk to his doctor.

Ask his doctors for a referral to a dietician or nutritionist.

Join a support group for families of dialysis patients.

Make use of beans and lentils to up protein and calcium without a lot of fat. Mexican and Indian cooking use these a lot, and spices will add variety.

Hopefully the link from National Kidney Foundation (second one) will prove useful, I didn’t peruse all the links.
