Dill Freekah and Roasted Carrot Salad
Freekeh is a roasted young, green wheat grain. It has a significant amount of fiber. Lucky for our health and taste buds, it’s becoming more readily available everywhere and can easily be purchased online. However, if you don’t have freekeh, you can make this recipe with 2 1/2 cups of any other cooked whole grain, such as bulgur wheat, brown rice, or barley. Whether made with freekeh or another grain, this recipe is designed to be served as a salad. But it’s equally tasty served at room temperature or warm as a side dish, if you prefer.

Beef Boti Kebabs
This boti kebabs recipe takes its inspiration from a kebab recipe popular during Nizam rule in Hyderabad. Back then this prominent dish consisted of tender pieces of boneless mutton dipped in spices and egg wash, rolled in crumbs, and deep fried. To make this recipe more diabetes-friendly, we've used a marinade to tenderize the meat and swapped frying for grilling on the stove top. The spices keep the traditional Indian flavors without the additional fat and carbs. Serve with Whole-Wheat Spinach Parathas and grilled veggies.
