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.

CHESAPEAKE BAY PORK CHOPS

1/2 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup apple cider vinegar
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp chopped fresh basil
1 lime, juiced
freshly ground black pepper to taste
8 boneless pork chops, approx. 1/2" thick

Whisk together the vegetable oil, apple cider vinegar, seafood seasoning, minced garlic, basil, lime juice, and black pepper in a bowl, and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add the pork chops, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours, flipping periodically.

Preheat grill for medium-high heat, and lightly oil the grate. Remove the pork chops from the bags. Discard excess marinade.

Grill until the pork is no longer pink in the center, 5 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Note: This is a recipe and picture I have had for years from allrecipes.
