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.

BARBECUE GREEN BEANS

This is an old recipe from my Southern Indiana childhood with a couple adjustments for my diabetes.

4 slices bacon, finely cut (chopped)
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/2 cup catsup - preferably surgar-free
1 1/2 Tbsp Splenda brown sugar blend
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 cans French style green beans, drained

Brown bacon and onions in skillet. Add the catsup, brown sugar and Worcestershire sauce. Simmer two minutes. Place beans in a casserole dish. Pour the bacon mixture over the top but do not stir! Bake at 350 degrees for 20 minutes.
