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.

GRANNY SMITH APPLE CRISP

4 cups sliced Granny Smith apples
1 tbsp lemon juice
1/4 cup Splenda Brown Sugar Blend
1 tsp cinnamon
1/3 cup white whole-wheat flour*
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 cup butter, melted

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Place apples in a 9-inch square baking dish or pan. Sprinkle lemon juice over the apples.

Combine remaining ingredients and mix well. Put mixture over the apples.

Bake at 375 degrees for 30 minutes.

Make it extra special with a dollop of unsweetened whipped cream or sugar-free vanilla ice cream.

*Or your favorite low/no carb substitute. Diabetics should avoid all-purpose flour as it is highly refined.
