I’ve rounded up some of the tastiest diabetes friendly low-carb pumpkin recipes! Summer from my own website, and summer some of my favorite registered dietitian friends ☺️🎃
.
Pumpkin contains so many great nutrients, but it is often added to recipes that have lots of sugar. So, I’ve got the best, most delicious pumpkin recipe options for you to keep blood sugars stable. Click the link in my bio to grab the recipes!
.
📷: Pumpkin (or sweet potato) kefir smoothie
.
And, as always, I want to give my thoughts on eating low-carb and diabetes… low carb does not mean no carb. Do you have to follow a low-carb diet? No. Can you if you want to? Absolutely. Regardless of how you answer those two questions, having some good go-to lower carbohydrate recipes can be really helpful when you have diabetes 🎃❤️

I get it.... we’re human. Most of us try to find things in common with someone when we talk to them (whether friend or stranger), a way to relate to each other.
.
If you are living with diabetes, you’ve likely heard a comment like the one above many times… Or maybe it’s that someone’s great aunt had her foot amputated because of diabetes 🙄😑 I get why people say it, but at the same time sometimes it just gets to be really discouraging 😔
.
So, next time you meet someone with diabetes or find out someone you’ve known for a while has diabetes… Tell them a story about someone you know who has diabetes and is doing amazing and thriving! 💃🏻 💯 And if you don’t know anyone... ask questions! It’s so much more encouraging. We hear enough diabetes complications and mortality comments/stories from our doctors. Try talking about people living their best life with diabetes instead! ❤️

Easy Chicken Salad with Grapes and Walnuts is a protein-packed recipe you must add to your lunch and dinner recipe rotation!

One of the things I love about this recipe is how loaded it is with protein. Not only the chicken, but the Greek yogurt too! Protein is one of my favorite nutrient tools for balancing blood sugars.

It pairs perfectly with the nutrient rich carbohydrates in @grapesfromca … Grapes offer potassium, vitamin K, and a super convenient source of hydration too!

It’s everything you need for a blood sugar friendly meal! Click the link in my bio to grab the recipe!

The ULTIMATE Fall Harvest Charcuterie Board ❤️🍂 what would you add?? (Yes, I know it’s technically still 95° outside, but charcuterie works year round so let’s just go with it ☺️)
.
Click the link in my bio for the full list of what I recommend for the best Fall charcuterie board, and how to arrange it!
.
While traditional charcuterie boards are made up of just meat, cheese, and other proteins… I will always add seasonal fruits and veggies to mine! It’s a perfect way to encourage more produce consumption in kids and adults alike 👍

Also, this is a photo from when I organized my pantry last winter and I’m really proud of it 😆😃 and I’ve *mostly* kept it looking like this since then ☺️ all the baskets are from the dollar store, and the plastic storage containers I’ve collected over the years when I see them on sale 👍

Think about it 🤔 you know it’s true ☺️
.
So your kid wants to dunk all of his veggies in ranch? Let him.
.
You only enjoy veggies cooked in butter? Do it.
.
Trying to learn to enjoy spinach but inside a cheesy omelette is the only way you like it? Enjoy it!
.
Instead of lamenting how plain, boring veggies arent appealing to you or your family, embrace the way you (and they) actually enjoy eating them ❤️

I know it’s still like 1000 degrees outside 🥵 but my Healthy Baked Chicken Fajita Casserole is such an easy weeknight meal! And if the photo wasn’t enough to convince you to make this delicious casserole, here’s a few of my favorite things about it:
1) Everything you need in one pan! Veggies, protein, whole grains... no side dishes needed!
2) Only 10 ingredients 👍
3) Makes for some amazing leftovers the next day!
4) Takes about 15-20 minutes time to prep and then 30 minutes passive time while it bakes ❤️
