what is the best food to give to my diabetic mother? and still control her blood sugar to the best?
Make sandwiches with a really nice filling like a low fat cheese and pickled onion sandwich
How's about trail mix? Mixed nuts of all types, dried fruits, granola bits, and not covered in oils or sugars.
Dehydrated vegetables would be your best betThey can be packaged easily and obviously are the most healthiest choice, plus its not a messy snack requiring boxes or containersIf you dont have a dehydrator, then set your oven at its lowest setting and keep them in there until they become crispyBut a dehydrator works best and the one I have was under $25 at Walmart, a good investment in my opinionI thinly slice carrots, turnips, sweet potato, regular potato and bananas and just follow the instructions on the gadgetI even cut green beans into finger length piecesIf you decide to use the oven, then make sure to toss them in olive oil and arrange them so that they have a little space between themIf they overlap, then you'll end up with steamed veggies rather than dried crunchy onesIf you find this too much work, then make air-popped popcorn and use creative toppings such as: parmesan cheese butter flavored powder salt/black pepper rosemary/olive oil cinnamon/sugar garlic powder creole seasoning taco seasoning ranch powder dried chives or thyme nacho cheese flavored powder cocoa powder lemon pepper Really, the possibilities are endlessIts all up to your palateBut these are some variations my little sister makes, cause she's a popcorn fanatic!
