Having a controlled and balanced diet for any diabetic is a must have, but this doesn't mean that you can not eat the foods you enjoy. Being diabetic does not mean that everything has to taste bland and boring, that breakfast, lunch and dinner are times of the day you can't look forward to. It just means you may have to plan a little more and take more time in preparing the food.
Here are some great tasty and easy to make diabetic foods for anyone who is fed up of eating the same foods over and over again.
Do you love cookies? Why not make yourself some diabetic cookies?
Diabetic Cookies 1 1/4 c. water 1 1/4 c. shortening 2 c. seedless raisins 1/2 tsp. nutmeg 2 tsp. cinnamon
Boil all of the above for 3 minutes. Let cool. Beat in 2 eggs. Dissolve 1/2 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon soda, 12 1/4 ground saccarin in 2 tablespoons water. Add to above mix and add 2 cups flour and 1 teaspoon baking powder. Bake at 350 degrees for 10-12 minutes.
If that's not to your fancy then why not try making a diabetic cake for a special occasion or just because you want to!
Diabetic Cake 2 c. water 2 c. raisins 1 c. unsweetened applesauce 2 c. flour 1 tsp. vanilla 2 eggs 2 tbsp. liquid sweetener 3/4 c. cooking oil 1 tsp. baking soda 1 1/4 tsp. cinnamon 1/2 tsp. nutmeg
Cook raisins in water until water is gone. Cool. Then add applesauce, eggs, sweetener and oil. Mix well. Blend in baking soda and flour. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. You may add walnuts, or artificially sweetened fruit cocktail may be used instead of raisins, if desired. Bake at 350 degrees for about 40 minutes or more.
