Hey Folks,
Awesome post below
on one “Chicken Avocado Salad” written by DiabetesIreland . I found this
on the Diabetes.ie and I’m reprinting the whole thing here for your
convenience.
Avocado is high in
monunsaturated fats which can help to protect your heart and it also count
towards 1 of your 5 a day. Try to include, as here, at least 2-3 portions of
your 5 a day at lunchtime.
With diabetes you
should include a source of carbohydrate with this recipe. If you were to have 2
slices of wholegrain bread it would provide an additional 30g of carbohydrate.
Ingredients –
Serves 4 Adults
2 ripe avocados,
peeled and stones removed
390g/14 oz of
skinless and boneless chicken fillets, around 3 fillets
1 tablespoon of
olive oil
1 handful of
chopped fresh parsley
Freshly ground
pepper to taste
Method
Cook the chicken
under a grill or non-stick pan
While that’s
cooking, chop the avocados into small cubes
Mix the olive oil
and pepper together with a fork
Remove the chicken
and cut into strips
Serve in a salad
bowl with the avocado
Drizzle the oil on
top and garnish with the parsley according to taste
NB – bread or
potatoes will add to the total carbohydrate of your meal and so will affect
blood glucose readings.
Did anyone else out
there have tried this recipe? Share your results with me in the comments below.
Cheers,
Mauri
