Healthy Diabetic Recipes

this is a great group. I agree with the person who wrote in and said
you have to use your judgement in using recipes and adapt if you
want, to what you can personally eat. I am a type two diet controlled
and don’t have to be as careful as those with a worse condition. I
appreciate the recipes here and agree that a good diabetic diet is
eating healthy foods. Recently I’ve had a craving for jello. I can
use the sugar free and make the lovely desserts and dishes in the
books I collect. I figure if I put fruit and vegetables in it I’m
more likely to get the servings I need a day. That way I won’t waste
as much food. Living alone and cooking for one isn’t much fun and a
lot of food goes to waste if you aren’t careful.
I left the other group because they nit picked every recipe… people
didn’t do much posting.
