Who said you can’t have "nachos" with diabetes? Try this healthy version that has all the flavor of traditional nachos without all of the extra fat and carbs.
This delicious dish uses a new type of pasta made from chickpeas. Chickpea pasta is higher in fiber and protein than regular pasta, making it better for blood glucose management. It's also grain- and gluten-free. Here we use roasted broccoli and zucchini, but you could sub in any seasonal nonstarchy vegetable, or use frozen vegetables.
If you’re not sure how to start cooking fish, try a simple and delicious method like this packet. It’s full of fresh flavors from lemon, orange and dill. Sealing the fish in a parchment paper pouch steams it to perfection and infuses the fish with flavor from the citrus and herbs. If you don't have parchment paper, aluminum foil will also work. We used mahi-mahi, but you could make this recipe with any type of fish filet.
This baked dish comes together quickly for an easy weeknight meal that is packed with nutrients and flavor. Perfect for people with diabetes, the subtle spice of chipotle salmon is balanced out by the bright, sweet flavors of a fresh fruit salsa made from watermelon and mango. Try pairing this recipe with cilantro lime quinoa for a perfect summer night meal!
