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.

GRILLED CHIPOTLE CHICKEN BREASTS

 2 tsp finely chopped canned chipotle peppers in adobo sauce

1 tsp adobo sauce from the canned chipotle peppers

1/2 tsp ground cumin

1/8 tsp salt

1 - 1 1/4 lb boneless, skinless chicken breast halves

Nonstick cooking spray

In a shallow dish stir together peppers, sauce, cumin and salt. Add the chicken, turning to coat all sides. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator 30 minutes to 1 hour.

To grill chicken on a charcoal grill, place chicken on a greased grill rack directly over medium coals. Grill, uncovered, 12-15 minutes or until no longer pink, turning once halfway through the grilling time.

To grill chicken on a gas grill, preheat grill. Reduce heat to medium and place chick on greased grill rack over the heat. Cover and grill until chicken is cooked through.
