I have started the DIABETES echo again but I haven't advertised it
(I need to).
Im almost there despite what i have been doing and I am working on swapping tortia chips to no salt and pinto beans to no salt as
examples.
Now I'm confused. I was diagnosed as diabetic over 40 years ago and
have never had a doctor or an R.D. mention salt in connection to my
diabetes. But, the croakers have preached about it in relation to the
blood pressure. Fortunately I am one of the lucky ones who salt does
not affect W.R.T. blood pressure. My house mate OTOH .....
Oh, and welcome to the cooking echo. Several of us are diabetic so you
should feel right at home.
MMMMM----- Recipe via Meal-Master (tm) v8.06
Title: Apple Rice Pudding
Categories: Diabetic, Desserts, Rice, Fruits
Yield: 6 Servings
2 c Cooked rice *
1 c Milk
1 tb Liquid Sugartwin **
- (1/4 c sugar)
1/4 c Raisins; regular or golden
1 ts Vanilla
1/4 ts Cinnamon
1/4 ts Nutmeg
1 Tart apple; shredded peel on
1/4 ts Ascorbic acid; colour
- keeper ***
1 tbsp liquid Sugartwin has the sweetness of 4 tbsp or
1/4 cup sugar. American Diabetes Assoc. guidelines allow
1 tsp sugar per serving or 2 tbsp for a 6 serving recipe
which would taste OK to people accustomed to low sugar
recipes.
Combine rice, milk, sweetener (or sugar) raisins,
vanilla and spices. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and
stir occasionally until the mixture is creamy.
Core and shred apple and sprinkle with ascorbic acid
color keeper, or with a little lemon juice. Stir apple
into rice mixture. Cook a few minutes longer until apple
is soft.
Serve warm or cold.
1/6 recipe made with artificial sweetner - 1 starch
choice, 1 milk
Optional: Cook 2/3 cup rice in 1 2/3 cups water. Make
pudding as above without apple and add 2 tbsp coconut.

NOTES: * I used brown rice - just for S & G
** Granulated (dry) Sugar Twin is MUCH easier as it is
a volume for volume substitute for sucrose sugar.
*** Ascorbic acid is also known as vitamin C. While powder
is available, a sprinkle of lemon or lime juice works just
as well.
