My dad is diabetic and we made several changes in our kitchen ever since then:
We only cook in olive oil...nothing else.
Salt is used very sparingly...we dont use a lot of it at all. And for table salt, we have salt substitute.
Only egg whites are used in my home.
White bread has not made it in my home for the past 15 years.
Red meat is cooked once a week if that much.
Main dishes are usually chicken, daal (light baghaar) and vegetables.
Snacks are usually sugar free cookies or crackers.
Lots of fruit always available...melons are very popular in my family.
Salt free fries when we go out.
Thats all I can think of right now...
