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.

SWEET HORSERADISH SAUCE

Marlene Koch, a cookbook author of low-sugar desserts and foods, came up with this recipe after hearing her brother rave about a Horsey Sauce that gives a real zip to roast beef and other sandwiches. It is quite tasty if you are looking for a good sauce with some zip.

1/2 cup low-fat cottage cheese
3 tbsp light sour cream
2 tbsp horseradish
1 tbsp Splenda Granular

Place cottage cheese in a food processor or blender and puree until completely smooth (like mayonnaise). Add the remaining ingredients and blend again.

Store in a dish or jar with a lid and refrigerate.
