Diabetes News: Safety of Type 2 Diabetes Medications

December arrives with many parties to attend. If you need ideas for what to make during the holidays, please check out Diabetic-Recipes. There are excellent menus for the holidays available.

Dessert: Carrot Cake

Common diabetes misperception:  you can never have cake or cookies or anything sweet ever again.  Don’t you get tired of hearing that from other people and then correcting them?  Make this carrot cake the next time you have guests, and you won’t hear that misperception from them. What You Need (makes 20 servings)

Dinner: Shepherd's Pie

This hearty but healthy recipe for shepherd’s pie is perfect for those cozy fall and winter nights.  Actually, it’s so good, you may even want to eat it in the summer out on the deck (forget grilling out!).

Afternoon Snack: Nacho Popcorn

You know the 3:00 in the afternoon stomach growl.  To feed that snack urge (and not throw off your entire day), try this nacho popcorn.  Just regular popcorn is a great snack, too, but try kicking it up with some flavor. What You Need (makes 12 servings)

Lunch: Turkey (or Ham) and Apple Sandwich

Peanut butter and jelly is so passé.  For a grown-up lunch (or to add some grown-up variety to your child’s lunch), try this turkey (or ham) and apple sandwich.

Breakfast: Banana Yogurt Pancakes

Begin the day right:  these banana yogurt pancakes have just 14 grams of carbohydrates (in each serving).  This is an easy and delicious twist on plain old pancakes—so good you should consider hosting a breakfast party instead of a dinner party next time. What You Need (makes 18 servings)
