"5 Best Foods for Diabetes" (best food categories for Type 2 diabetes)
"Green vegetables, Non-starchy vegetables, Beans, Nuts and seeds, Fresh fruit"
Even nutrient dense foods (like fruits) that can cause unwanted glycemic response
can be moderated with smaller portions, the goal being to limit a meal's carbohydrates
to reduce that meal's glycemic response. A personal glucometer can help achieve control
and eventually make such control more intuitive with less testing.

Lockdown Pea Soup
Re: https://www.tasteofhome.com/recipes/old ... -ham-bone/
Very simple recipe, but double (or triple) the veggies! ...
even ham can be "Later dude!" (add cooked ham when reheating).
OMG No garlic A soup without garlic during lockdown is so "at risk".
Split Pea And Spam? Maybe, but SPAS is definitely not SPA's quality ("Later dude!").
Who knew Cooked wild rice complements these flavors, but "Later dude!"

Re: UB Cookin'
You must have read my mind. I was thinking that with a cold snap coming this weekend, pea soup would taste good. I am even sitting here with grocery list in hand... so good timing my friend. The other new recipes above tickle my fancy as well. I may in fact, make the Quintessential Quinoa in a few minutes.
Thanks for sharing your recipes with us. It truly helps hapless cooks as myself.

Re: UB Cookin'
A diabetes discovery journey ...
Having rationalized that a crunchy cookie (or two) are what I need to calm pre-breakfast hunger,
I now discovered that 1/4 cup warm black-eyed peas (plain, just boiled) are equally effective.
Their very mild flavor plus great nutrition neutralize the cookie rationale ...
and they're even tasty with that first cup of coffee.
Now to make the same substitute for most cookie hunger.

Bodacious Buns (real story of why burgers are in buns)
A long time ago, people ate food with their fingers.
When bread was invented, cave dwellers put juicy food between
slices of bread to eat with their fingers. Then utensils were invented
for more hygienic dining. Of course, most people still preferred to
eat some meat with their fingers, so buns were invented.
Even today, some buns are more bodacious than others.

Avocado Spread (a quick test with good overnight result)
Mash two medium avocados (not too ripe) with 1/2 tsp garlic granules,
then press mixture into a chilled glass container and drench top
with extra virgin olive oil. Refrigerate, covered, between uses.
Tip: Cut avocado in half, cutting around seed,
twist halves in opposite direction to separate,
then remove seed and scoup out flesh.

Re: Grilled Cricket Fingers
Try Turmeric Butter as an herb spread with dried cilantro, parsley, or whatever.
Caution: This Butter is appealing as a caloric "pudding".

Unexpected discovery ...
Quality apple sauce (no added sugar, organic apples) provides good fiber!
Boost that fiber with chia seeds and a sprinkle of cinnamon:
Mix 1 tbsp chia seeds and 1/3 cup chilled applesauce,
then drink water, juice, or green tea.
