WELCOME TO DIABETIC ENJOYING FOOD

I have chosen this name for this blog because it truly states my story. I am a type II diabetic who most certainly enjoys food. When I was diagnosed with diabetes several years ago, my blood sugar level was over 400. With some oral medications, a lot of research and some trial and error, I have found that unlike my ancestors I truly can continue to enjoy food. I hope this blog will help you to also enjoy food and be healthy. Some recipes are my originals and some I have collected. Everyone reacts different to various foods. Check your blood sugar readings so you will know whether or not a recipe works for you! And feel free to take a recipe and adjust it to suit your needs.

SWISS VENISON ROUND STEAK

For those diabetics who enjoy game meats, give this recipe a try occasionally.

2 venison round steaks, approx 1 1/2 lbs
1/4 cup almond flour
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/8 tsp pepper
1/4 cup salt-free butter
1 cup water
1 med onion, chopped
1 cup diced celery
1/2 cup fat-free sour cream

Wipe steaks clean with a damp cloth. Combine flour, salt and pepper. Pound flour mixture into the steaks using the edge of a sturdy saucer. Brown both sides of the steaks and any remaining flour mixture in the butter. Add 1/4 cup of the water. Cover and simmer slowly, adding remaining water as needed. When the meat is almost tender (after 1 to 2 hours), add onion and celery; cook until thoroughly tender. Stir in the sour cream and cook for 2 minutes longer. Serve at once. From 1 1/2 to 2 1/2 hours of total cooking time will be required, the time depending on the age of the animal. 

Serves 5.
