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.

HEALTHY MEAT MARINADE

This recipe is from Dr. Richard Collins, an MD known as 'The Cooking Cardiologist". He has stated that his marinade recipe is a natural way to reduce carcinogens by 95%. We diabetics are always on the lookout for anything to help improve our health so you may want to give this a try.

1/2 cup rice or balsamic vinegar*

1 tbsp mustard

1tbsp olive oil

1 clove garlic, minced fine

1 tbsp lemon juice

1 tsp salt 

1 tsp sugar

Mix all ingredients together in a shallow bowl that has a cover. Place meat in the marinade, turning every 30 minutes, for 1 to 2 hours before grilling. Place meat on grill and discard the marinade. Do NOT use the leftover marinade to baste the meat!

*Rice vinegar works best with chicken and turkey; balsamic vinegar works better with pork and beef.
