Diabetic Recipes

Chia seeds are supposed to be one of nature's super foods with 3100 mg of Omega-3 and 1050mg of Omega-6 and high in dietary fiber. They are recommended for diabetics. Although I am not diabetic, I use diabetic recipes for great low-carb choices. This recipe is modified from a dlife recipe. I only use Alaska wild caught salmon, and I drain it and remove the skin pieces so the numbers I've put in may not be totally accurate.

This recipe is Diabetic friendly

This is from a DIABETIC COOKBOOK

A great light dessert, low in sugar and great for diabetics.

Absolutely delicious - a hit with everyone in our family, dieter, diabetic or not!

I swapped out the white sugar for SPLENDA to make it more diabetic-friendly.

This recipe was adapted from a diabetic cookbook. A very tasty way of including fruit and oats into your diet!

These are the richest brownies I've ever made/tasted- no need for chocolate chips! This is a pantry raid goodie :)

Diabetic recipe cuts down the calories by using Stevia and sugar free pudding. The peanut butter makes it more chewy than traditional fudge, a real hit!

The traditional no-bake cookie w/o the chocolate and only half the sugar

While sugar may play a necessary role in some baked goods because of chemical reactions that result in the proper texture, rising, et cetera, quick breads are a wonderful category of sweets for which the complete substitution of a low-calorie sweetener such as Splenda is not only completely acceptable from a baking standpoint, but for taste as well.

Splenda is not truly calorie free; there are approximately 2 calories per teaspoon (compared to 15 calories per teaspoon of sugar!), so when utilizing in baked goods be sure to add 97 calories per cup of Splenda if you are concerned with accurate nutrition info. If you are not yet brave enough to try for a complete substitution, feel free to try the recipe with the Splenda Baking Blend (half sugar and half splenda), but it is worth trying the entire recipe with Splenda to see just how delicious "guiltless" baking can be!

This recipe is also included in the "guiltless" category because it is virtually fat free! The use of applesauce in quick breads in lieu of oil is not only heart healthy and MUCH lower in calorie (its use saves about 60 calories per half-inch slice!), but it results in a tender, sweet quickbread.

I've kept the whole eggs in this recipe instead of using an egg substitute or egg whites, as the caloric value difference is only about 5 calories per slice and I find that the yolks are a necessary binding ingredient. If you are concerned with cholesterol (and the recipe as written only has about 20 grams per slice) try it with egg whites or egg substitute (3/4 cup) and let us know how it goes!

I liked these. Steve was okay with them. Dressing is kind of tangy/mustardy.

Healthy- fibrous dessert, snack, or side dish- packed with vitamins and good for children and diabetics- good source of potassium.

A delicious pumpkin pie that is also good for you! Great for diabetics and anyone else watching their sugar, starch and carbohydrate intakes.

Super easy, but of so comforting. It's low in sodium and diabetic friendly.

We've bumped up the nutrition--and kept all the flavor--of this traditional Italian pizza with tomato, sliced mozzarella, basil, and olive oil.

low fat, sugarless

Single batch to make 40 cookies - for nutritional count purposes

A kickin' vegetarian pizza! It's extra good because it's made on a whole-wheat crust!

Tired of the same old red sauce from a jar? Try this instead.

Make this chicken the next you have company for dinner, and they'll swear you hired caterers. It tastes like it came from a restaurant, but for much less money and effort.
