Balancing out a banana for breakfast 🍌🍓 Adding in fat, fiber, and protein to a meal can help you enjoy foods that when eaten on their own would likely cause blood sugars to rise quicker than we’d like 👍 #milknhoneynutrition #diabetes #bloodsugar #type1 #t1d #type1diabetes #type2 #t2d #type2diabetes #prediabetes #bloodsugarfriendly

Fat, fiber, and protein! Eggs provide fat and protein. The banana muffin is made from blood sugar friendly ingredients like oats, almond flour, and almond butter. And the bacon, while it does provide some protein and fat, it’s also a fun addition since I don’t eat it that often.
.
Fat, fiber, and protein help slow down carbohydrate digestion in your body. This is a good thing, and leads to a steady supply of energy and decreases the likelihood of a blood sugar spike after eating 👍

Yes, all of these have been said to me at some point in my life 🤦🏻‍♀️ I think some people meant well but didn’t think before they spoke, and others were just down right rude.
.
There are so many other things you can say and helpful questions to ask when you find out someone has diabetes. .
One of my favorite things I’ve ever been asked by a new acquaintance was “What are three things you’d like me to know about your life with diabetes?” It was so heartfelt and thoughtful… and much more encouraging than one of the statements in this video ☺️❤️ #milknhoneynutrition #diabetes #bloodsugar #type1 #t1d #type1diabetes #type2 #t2d #type2diabetes #prediabetes #bloodsugarfriendly

I’d love to hear yours!! And, as always, any and all guidance and instruction from your personal healthcare team should be taken over information you hear online… and alternatively, if you hear something online and are considering changing a health related habit, talk to your healthcare team first. ❤️👍 #newyearsresolutions #milknhoneynutrition #diabetes #bloodsugar #type1 #t1d #type1diabetes #type2 #t2d #type2diabetes #prediabetes #bloodsugarfriendly

Baking some of my favorite sweet treats around the holidays for friends and family is one of my favorite
traditions! I found these super cute treat boxes and decided to bake up my favorite snickerdoodle recipe
using the new @truvia Sweet Complete Granulated All-Purpose Monk Fruit Sweetener instead of sugar.
.
To make snickerdoodles, you typically have sugar in the cookie dough as well as coated with cinnamon
on the outside… and since Sweet Complete Sweeteners bake and brown just like sugar it was the perfect
cup for cup substitute in this recipe!
.
Grab some for yourself on Amazon or head to Truvia.com to find it at a store near you!

Here’s my low sugar chocolate chunk cookies recipe! If you make them be sure to tag me in your posts or stories!
Ingredients:
1⁄2 cup almond flour
2⁄3 cup rolled oats ground into a powder
1 tsp baking powder
1⁄2 tsp baking soda
1⁄4 tsp salt
2⁄3 cup unsweetened almond butter
1⁄2 cup brown sugar or no-sugar brown sugar substitute
2 large eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
2 @lilys_sweets Salted Almond Extra Dark Chocolate bars, broken into pieces
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Combine your almond flour and oats in a blender or food processor and grind them together until a uniform powder forms. Add this mixture to a medium size mixing bowl along with the baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Whisk this mixture together and set it aside. Combine the almond butter, brown sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract in a second bowl and whisk thoroughly to combine. Add the dry ingredients to your wet ingredients and stir together using a rubber spatula. Add your Lily’s chocolate bar chunks and stir until combined. Scoop your dough into 24 equal sized balls and space them about 1.5 inches apart on your baking sheets. Gently press the dough balls down with your fingers to flatten them slightly. Bake the cookies for 13-15 minutes or until the tops of the cookies start to turn slightly golden brown. Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool for about 10 minutes before transferring them to a wire rack. Store in an airtight container on the counter for up to 5 days, or freeze for up to 3 months. #ad #EatSweetandBeMerry #lesssugarsweetlife #ReimagineSweetness
