Diabetics can consume salads, pizzas and stir-fried chicken, among other things.
It is always an arduous task to prepare tasty food for a diabetic family member. The diabetic persons cannot consume different foods and regulate their diet to control the blood sugar level in the body. They stay completely away from sweets and also they cannot consume many fruits and vegetables.
However, it does not mean that a diabetic cannot enjoy a tasty meal. Here are some delectable cuisines that can be prepared at home for a diabetic.
Chicken Veggie Stir Fry
Stir-fries make it easy to get a diabetes-friendly dinner. In addition, this dish contains many vegetables that are good for people with diabetes. Carrots, broccoli, zucchini, bell peppers and green onions used in the dish are good for diabetics. Chicken also compensates for the protein requirement. However, it is recommended that you choose skinless chicken to reduce both the saturated fat and cholesterol.
Tomato and Zucchini Quinoa Pizza
It may sound surprising, but you can cook a pizza. Replace the traditional refined flour pizza crust with quinoa and hummus pizza crust for diabetics. This pizza crust provides protein, healthy fats and fiber. To make the sauce, use extra hummus and sprinkle with nutritious ingredients. Pizza with vegetable toppings can be consumed by diabetics. Use vegetables that are not high in carbohydrates, such as tomatoes and zucchini. These toppings also provide fiber, vitamins and minerals.
Mexican Salad
The salad is prepared with vegetables, many of which do not contain starch. Mexican Salad can be prepared with tomatoes, peppers, onions, jicama (Mexican turnip) and zucchini. It also contains black beans, which are high in fiber and protein. Be sure to control the amount of salt and oil in the honey-lime dressing.
