Hi everyone,
My name is Dee and I just joined last night. I’m a type 2 diabetic and
have a hard time planning meals. I was wondering if anyone has any
menus/meal planning samples that they have made themselves or even
gotten from another source. I realize that all will not be
specifically made for me but I can change them so that they work for
me.
I’m newly widowed and so of course my income has been cut by about
3/4ths. I don’t use alcohol in my cooking(don’t keep it in the house)
and can’t afford fancy cuts of meats or expensive fish (like salmon).
I just need some simple everyday meal planning guides. I’m all out of
ideas.
Thanks to all for helping me out.
Dee
I just found this site last night and I want to share it with others. Please go
to www.howstuffworks.com and go to Search Diabetic recipes and you will have
loads of recipes to look at and enjoy.

Hi, I purchased a product from TV called a Magic Bullet. It has a nice
instruction/cook book and I got the chance to watch them demonstrate it again on
T.
The give a basic muffin recipe as follows.
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
1 tablesppon veg oil
1 1/4 cup Bisquick (or any baking mix)
1/4 cup sugar.
Now I thought I could adapt this by using an alternative sweetener and I asked
what Bisquick was and learned it is a prepared mix. So I thought I could just
use 1/4 cups of flour and I used 1/4 Soy flour 1/4 Rice Flour (which I find a
bit heavy) and 3/4 S.R. Flour (all purpose flour).
