2 easy and fun snack recipes for diabetics

Italian Herb Nuts

Ingredients:

  • 1 teaspoon ghee
  • Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • Salt, to taste
  • Garlic pepper, ½ teaspoon
  • A handful of walnuts, cashews, almonds
  • ¼ cup cheese

Method:

  • Add ghee, Worcestershire sauce and all seasonings to a bowl. Mix well.
  • Add the nuts, and coat them well in the mixture.
  • Spread the nuts on a baking tray, and sprinkle with some cheese.
  • Place the baking tray in the oven, pre-heated at 325 degrees.
  • Bake for 15 minutes, while flipping them every 5 minutes.
  • The nuts can be consumed immediately, or can also be stored for the future. The nuts may feel a little chewy in texture at first but will become crunchier as they cool. 

Coconut Milk Fruit Pudding

Ingredients:

  • 1 cup of coconut milk
  • ½ cup coconut cream
  • Fresh fruits – mangoes, kiwi, oranges, grapes, etc – diced
  • Crushed nuts – 1 tablespoon

Method:

  • Mix coconut milk and cream in a bowl, and whisk to make a thick, runny mixture.
  • Add chopped fruits in the mixture.
  • Let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for 5-6 hours.
  • Sprinkle with some chopped nuts and serve cold.

This recipe can act as a healthy dessert recipe for diabetics. The natural sweetness of coconut milk and cream and that of the fruits is enough to provide a mildly sweet taste to it, without the addition of artificial sugars. However, this recipe should not be consumed if one's sugar levels are already high, as even too much natural sugar can spike it too much, causing complications.
