After seeing plenty of discussions on where to find good diabetic recipes, I thought “Hey, what the WORST diabetic recipe you’ve ever tried?”
For me, it was “Prune Brownies.” Ugh! That cookbook was quickly filed in the garbage can.
Did the experts have any suggestions on what foods to avoid to help insulin resistance or just calories in general?
I found this recipe for a low carb chocolate cake made with pecans. The thing was flat as a pancake, tasted like splenda overdose and was moldy by 12 hours after baking. I threw out that recipe immediately.
I have made in despeation as chocalate substitute a mixture of coaco powder, some appropriate fat or oil with 35 % cream the yummiest and splenda and mixed it to make a chocolate glaze. Not as good as Bernard Callibeault my wife says and refuses to eat it
I bought a low carb praline cheesecake mix. Nasty! Was also a rip-off & I should have known better. By the time I added eggs & cream cheese, what was I paying for in the mix? Splenda overkill & the texture was horrid–bleech.
ha ha ha! That doesn’t even sound good! Prune Brownies… blech!
So far I’ve not had that bad of result…
But I can tell you that once was experimenting with black beans and decided to dump a can of baby oysters in since my husband loves seafood. HUGE mistake… The entire batch went out to the chickens. They were mighty happy having a hot meal in -2* weather too! That combo still gives me shivers just thinking about it.
True, but I bet the chickens sit around and say things like “Do you remember that really cold day when we got the beans-n-oysters?! Now THAT was a heckuva good meal!”
