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.

SAUSAGE STUFFED MUSHROOMS

1 1/2 lbs medium-size white mushrooms
1/2 lb Italian sausage
1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
1/4 cup seasoned breadcrumbs (whole-grain is best for diabetics)
Fresh chopped parsley for garnish, if desired

Preheat oven to 450 degrees.

Clean mushrooms thoroughly and remove stems. Chop stems and set aside.

In a skillet over medium heat, cook sausages until cooked thoroughly. Remove from skillet with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the drippings from the skillet.

Cook the mushroom stems in the skillet until tender, about 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the sausage, cheese, and breadcrumbs.

Fill mushroom caps with the sausage mixture. Place in a 15 12 x 10 1/2-inch baking pan that has been very lightly sprayed with cooking spray. Bake 15 minutes. Remove from oven and garnish with the chopped parsley, if desired.
