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.

SPINACH-CHEDDAR SQUARES

1 1/2 cups Egg Beaters

3/4 cup low-fat milk

1 tbsp dried onion flakes

1 tbsp grated Parmesan cheese

1/4 tsp garlic powder

1/8 tsp black pepper

1/4 cup dry whole-grain breadcrumbs

3/4 cup shredded fat-free Cheddar cheese, divided

1 pkg (10-oz) frozen chopped spinach, thawed & well drained

1/4 cup diced pimentos

In a medium bowl, combine the Egg Beaters, milk, onion flakes, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder and pepper; set aside.

Sprinkle the breadcrumbs evenly into the bottom of a lightly greased 8x8x2-inch baking dish. Top with 1/2 cup of the Cheddar cheese and spinach. Pour egg mixture evenly over the spinach and top with remaining Cheddar and the pimentos.

Bake at 350 degrees 35 to 40 minutes or until a butter knife inserted in the center comes out clean. Let stand 10 minutes before cutting into 16 squares to serve.
