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.

CREAMY POPPY SEED DRESSING

1/2 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/2 cup fat-free sour cream or plain yogurt
3 tbsp Splenda Granular
2 tsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp poppy seeds

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl and stir together with a whisk.

Note: To use as a dressing on fresh fruits, add a little orange zest to the dressing before mixing.

I suggest using you drizzle, not pour, over salads whether lettuce, veggie, or fruit.

Note: This is a Splenda recipe that I tweeked to be more diabetic-friendly. The photo is a file photo.
