Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 I'd prefer recipes on this list to lean heavily toward offering nutritional value as well as being diabetic friendly. I know one of the current popular " diets " out there suggests eating lots of bacon, but I believe this is pretty controversial. Nutritional means, depending on the recipe, high in vitamins and minerals, high in fiber, low in saturated fat (which means real butter may be okay), and most likely, relatively low in carbohydrates if a recipe normally high in carbohydrates. Let's say you had a recipe for a dessert. Given we are diabetics, this recipe would probably not contain lots of sugar, lots of white flour, or in general, lots of complex carbohydrates. Thanks for remembering this guideline when posting recipes.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 a diet that allows you to eat piles of bacon??? this sounds like my kind of a diet! DR. E, my diabetic specialist says go light on bacon and ham. to much salt and to much fat. he sure took the fun out of my breakfast. Actually I pitched all the flour and the corn meal out of the house. everything I used it for was just to bad for me to be eating. sugar I still have, but can't really figure out why. did pick me up a half gallon of buttermilk yesterday and had six ounces with my breakfast this fine morning. probably I'm the only one on the list who digs butter milk? 3 months back only drinking only six ounces of but milk was a slap across my face. now I sip it and milk like fine wine. got to make it last you know? now Saturday morning I cooked 4 strips of bacon. 3 for the wife and the one I had I washed off under cold water and then squeezed it out with a paper tale before I ate it. took a whole lot of the fine taste right out of it by doing this. makes me wonder why I don't just give it up.

Guest guest Posted May 21, 2012 Report Share Posted May 21, 2012 It's the Atkins diet, actually. At least, this is what my wife tells me. At her work place, one of the veterinary doctors was on it, and this lady (who really didn't need to lose much weight) would eat a pile of bacon with her lunch.
