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.

1 cup balsamic vinegar
1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese

Place tomatoes in a shallow dish and pour the vinegar over them. Cover and marinate at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours. Place tomatoes on a serving platter and sprinkle with the cheese then basil before serving.

Note: Feta is one of the saltier cheeses. If you have a sodium problem try using a lite version of another cheese.
