Yes, it was Good. I left out the thyme and white
wine though since I didn't have either in the house. So I don't know if those 2 ingredients would have made the recipe taste even better. I always eat less than a serving since most foods when consumed are converted into sugar. So when I eat less food, I take less Insulin. A Diabetic should eat foods from all the food groups since our bodies do require all the vitamins and minerals, just like anyone else. |
