Diabetic Life
#18
So I should say that what led me to thinking more about this was my doctor appointment today. My sugar has not been good, no matter what I was eating, so I had to have some changes to my meds and I need to take a hard look at my diet and lifestyle.

Anyway, I am the cook in my household, and I love to look up new things. My cookbook collection is sizeable, and the top of my fridge is crowded with probably two dozen diabetic cook books. Problem for me is that now that I am taking classes and working full time, the time available to cook is limited and has caused my diet to slip as a result. So I figured having a bit of a diabetic community around here to talk about things and exchange ideas would be nice.

One of my quick meals that has become a staple around here uses a can of black beans (low salt), a can of tomatoes and chilis, and 2C frozen corn. The recipe this came from called for sour cream on top, I typically use a little shredded cheese. It also didn't call for any spices, but what is a dish like this without some garlic and cayenne pepper? I also like to add an onion every now and then. Bring it all to a boil, then simmer for 20 minutes. So simple, easy, and delicious.

I keep the ingredients for this on hand at all times just in case I don't feel like cooking when I get home.
