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.

PECAN CHEESE BALL

1 jar (16-oz) Cheez Whiz
1 brick (8-oz) fat-free cream cheese, softened
4-oz shredded mild reduced-fat cheddar cheese
1 cup finely chopped pecans
1 small onion, finely chopped
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
Additional chopped pecans to roll cheese ball in

In a bowl, mix until well blended. Roll into a ball, cover and chill until serving time. Right before serving, roll in more chopped pecans.

Serve with an assortment of whole-grain or low-carb crackers. May also be served with celery sticks.

Note: Reminder, this is an appetizer/snack. Do not make a meal of cheeseball and crackers!
