20 Foods That Make You Sleepy
Here's a list of snoozers (foods that make you sleepy)
By Ellen Michaud with Julie Bain From Sleep to Be Sexy Smart
and Slim
Foods that rank high on the Glycemic Index will help you fall
asleep in half the time you normally do if eaten four hours
before bed. Since foods ranked high on the index—which is
basically a scale of 1 to 100—cause a steep rise in blood
sugar, they are not recommended for those with diabetes.

New Food Labels Show Country of Origin Diabetic Snacker Kitchen Tips Recipe Ideals
New Food Labels Show Country of Origin
Stores to Show Country of Origin for Beef, Chicken, Pork,
Fruits, Vegetables, and Other Items
By Miranda Hitti
WebMD Health NewsReviewed by Louise Chang, MDSept. 30, 2008 --
Starting today, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) will
require retailers to display the country of origin for a wide
variety of foods, including:
Beef
Veal
Lamb
Chicken
Pork
Goat
Wild and farm-raised fish and shellfish
Fresh and frozen fruits and vegetables
Peanuts
Pecans
Ginseng
Macadamia nuts
If you eat fish and shellfish, you've probably already seen
country-of-origin
labels at the seafood counter.
Now, similar
country-of-origin labels will be seen for other foods.
There are some exceptions.
Processed foods (including
meatballs, sausage, and tomato sauce) aren't covered by the new
rule. Nor are products that mix several items
(such as a fruit
cup containing several types of fruit, salad mix containing
lettuce and a packet of salad dressing, or a bag of frozen peas
mixed with carrots), and roasted peanuts.
The new country-of-origin-labeling (COOL) rule doesn't apply to
restaurants or to foods produced or packaged before today's
date. And the label includes the country where the foods came
from -- not states or regions within those countries.
The USDA plans to spend the next six months educating retailers
about the COOL rule, which has been in the works since 2002.

Lighter Caramel Corn Snack Recipe Diabetes Friendly Diabetic Snacker
Light Caramel Corn Recipe
I'm a diabetic.
(Trivia fact: Diabetics have no dietary
restrictions.)
My nutritionist gave me this great recipe for
caramel corn out of a diabetic cookbook. It's light, filling,
and makes a great snack. It's a hit with the kids and many of
my friends. The popcorn can be fresh popped or out of a
microwave. I'm not sure exactly how much popped popcorn is in a
microwavable bag, but I usually use a full bag.
by stars1012
11 min | 6 min prep
SERVES 2 , 2 servings
6 cups popped popcorn
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons honey
Pop the popcorn and put it into a bowl. Make sure there is some
extra room in the bowl if possibble. You'll need that room when
you toss the popcorn.
In a small microwave safe bowl, microwave together the butter
and honey, only until melted.
Over heat it, and it WILL burn
(trust me, I've done it.).
Using a regular spoon, drizzle 2 spoonfuls of the butter/honey
mixture over the popcorn and toss thoroughly.
THIS IS CRUCIAL.
Put any more on at once and it won't turn out right.
Repeat step three. Most of the mixture will be gone before it
seems like you're getting anywhere with this. Be patient, and
when the honey/butter is all gone, enjoy:).
Carbohydrate 36
Sugars 17.5g
**My take on this recipes is:
I'd use a natural or light popcorn instead, sugar free honey that you can at Walgreens instead and of course a lighter margarine substitute and then this would be pretty healthy if you eat only the 1 serving. I really like the Orville Redenbacher mini popcorn bags that come 8 to a box and they are perfect sized for 1 serving. I think I'd try smaller amounts of the ingredients with that. That's because then you can eat the whole bag of something without feeling guilty instead of eating a half bag and having to make yourself stop or feel bad if you didn't. What do you think?

Diabetic Snacker New treat that's good! Entemann's Little Bites Review
This morning I tried a new little treat that's hit the stores now. It's called "Little Bites" by Entemann's bakery products. It was very good, reminding me of a twinkie by Hostess.
The only difference is the thin layer of chocolate on the bottom. That is all there is to it a thin layer of chocolate a round twinkie cake (too small)ha, and a fancy whipped cream star shape on the top. It is a 100 calorie snack which is always a good thing to have around.
All of us diabetics should try to keep our snacks under 150 calories since we don't want to add on the pounds with all these snacks we have to eat. These come with 8 treats to a box so I'd give it a B.
I think it could have had more flavor to it, meaning the cake part really tasted kind of plainish. We welcome your comments or tips, recipes.

Crash Course Exercising Safely With Diabetes Diabetic Snacker Control Help
Crash Course: Exercising Safely With Diabetes
Follow these tips for a diabetic-safe workout.
http://www.rd.com/living-healthy/exercising-safely-with-diabete
s/article57603.html
Having diabetes doesn't mean you have to avoid physical
activity. It just means that you need to take more precautions
than others do when you work out. Here's how to get on the road
to regular physical activity and stay the healthy course.
1. Talk to your doctor.
Tell your doctor
if you're planning to change your activity
level.
If you're starting an exercise program, the American
Diabetes Association recommends a physical exam (and usually a
graded exercise test)
if you have had type 1 diabetes for more
than 15 years, if you have had type 2 diabetes for more than 10
years, if you're sedentary, or if you're over age 35. Your
doctor also will want to consider your physical
condition-including such issues as heart disease, kidney
disease, nerve damage, and eye damage-in helping you decide
what kinds ofexercise
are good fits for you.
Discuss medication changes. Regular physical activity can
lessen the amount of insulin or other diabetes medication that
you require.
2. Learn when to test and when to rest.
If you're on insulin, check your blood sugar before, during,
and after exercise. This is the best way to tell how your
workout has affected your glucose levels.
Check your blood sugar before exercising if you have type 2
diabetes and you're taking insulin or drugs that prompt the
pancreas to produce more insulin. If your glucose is below 100,
have a snack that contains carbohydrate before exercising.
During a prolonged activity check every 30 minutes to make sure
your glucose stays in your target range.
If you're prone to hypoglycemia, check your glucose over the
course of several hours after exercise. This applies
particularly to people who have type 1 diabetes. Your muscles
will continue to pull glucose out of your bloodstream, so
taking a reading right after a workout won't give you the full
picture of your activity's effect on your glucose levels. You
might think your blood sugar is normal while it's actually
plummeting. Also, physical activity can speed up how fast
insulin goes to work.
Schedule workouts so they follow meals. If you find that you
often have to compensate for hypoglycemia by eating a snack
during physical activity, see if you do better exercising an
hour or two after a meal.
As sport seasons change, adjust food and medications
accordingly. For instance, when your recreational tennis league
starts up its season, you might be surprised to find your blood
sugar running low if you don't account for the twice-a-week
tennis practices.
3. Be prepared.
Keep essentials with you. If you're working up a sweat away
from home, carry a high-carbohydrate snack, diabetes ID
(bracelet, necklace, or sneaker tag), and a cell phone for
emergencies.
Brief a buddy onemergency
procedures. Make sure someone in the
vicinity knows that you have diabetes and knows what to do in
an emergency. If you're working out at home, make sure a family
member is nearby; if you're at the gym, alert a staff member.
Don shoes designed specifically for your sport. That means
running shoes for running, soccer shoes for soccer, tennis
shoes for tennis, and so on. Sneakers with air or gel
cushioning are a good bet because they will absorb shocks to
your feet and knees.
Drink plenty of water before exercising. In the two hours
before you start working out, drink at least two cups of water.
4. Learn how to warm up and cool down.
Start moving around and stretching 5 or 10 minutes before real
physical activity. A warm-up can entail a light-and-easy
version of the primary exercise. For instance, if you plan to
go running, warm up with a 5- or 10-minute walk and then some
gentle stretches to get your muscles ready for more intense
activity. Weightlifting while your muscles are cold can injure
you, too; before you lift anything heavy, raise your body
temperature by jogging, riding a stationary bike, or walking on
a treadmill.
Cool down gradually. As with the warm-up, do a brief, light
version of your workout, keeping your arms and legs moving
while your heart rate and breathing slow down.
5. Exercise care while exerting yourself.
Exhale during every lift. When you are lifting weights, exhale
during exertion and inhale while you are returning the weight
to its starting position. Holding your breath while lifting
weights can be dangerous. Not only does it raise your blood
pressure, but it also raises the pressure within your eyes and
can worsen eye diseases to which people with diabetes are
vulnerable, such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.
Watch for symptoms of hypoglycemia. It's easy to mistake
symptoms of hypoglycemia for the effects of exercise. Among the
signs of low blood sugar are profuse sweating, rapid heartbeat,
trembling, extreme hunger, difficulty thinking, blurred vision,
loss of coordination, and "just not feeling right." If you
suspect you have hypoglycemia, stop exercising immediately and
consume a source of glucose, such as raisins, hard candy, water
with fruit juice added to it, or glucose tablets.
If you feel pain, stop exercising. We've said it before, but it
is worth repeating: If you start to feel uncomfortable or short
of breath when you are exercising, immediately reduce your
degree of exertion or stop exercising altogether.
Drink water while you're working out. Experts recommend at
least one-half to 1 cup of water every 15 minutes.
Avoid exercising in extreme temperatures. If it's particularly
hot or cold outside, find an indoor venue for your workout. In
particular, be wary of hot, humid weather because it will be
difficult for your body to cool down.

Follow these tips for a diabetic-safe workout.
http://www.rd.com/living-healthy/exercising-safely-with-diabete
s/article57603.html
Having diabetes doesn't mean you have to avoid physical
activity. It just means that you need to take more precautions
than others do when you work out. Here's how to get on the road
to regular physical activity and stay the healthy course.
1. Talk to your doctor.
Tell your doctor
if you're planning to change your activity
level.
If you're starting an exercise program, the American
Diabetes Association recommends a physical exam (and usually a
graded exercise test)
if you have had type 1 diabetes for more
than 15 years, if you have had type 2 diabetes for more than 10
years, if you're sedentary, or if you're over age 35. Your
doctor also will want to consider your physical
condition-including such issues as heart disease, kidney
disease, nerve damage, and eye damage-in helping you decide
what kinds ofexercise
are good fits for you.
Discuss medication changes. Regular physical activity can
lessen the amount of insulin or other diabetes medication that
you require.
2. Learn when to test and when to rest.
If you're on insulin, check your blood sugar before, during,
and after exercise. This is the best way to tell how your
workout has affected your glucose levels.
Check your blood sugar before exercising if you have type 2
diabetes and you're taking insulin or drugs that prompt the
pancreas to produce more insulin. If your glucose is below 100,
have a snack that contains carbohydrate before exercising.
During a prolonged activity check every 30 minutes to make sure
your glucose stays in your target range.
If you're prone to hypoglycemia, check your glucose over the
course of several hours after exercise. This applies
particularly to people who have type 1 diabetes. Your muscles
will continue to pull glucose out of your bloodstream, so
taking a reading right after a workout won't give you the full
picture of your activity's effect on your glucose levels. You
might think your blood sugar is normal while it's actually
plummeting. Also, physical activity can speed up how fast
insulin goes to work.
Schedule workouts so they follow meals. If you find that you
often have to compensate for hypoglycemia by eating a snack
during physical activity, see if you do better exercising an
hour or two after a meal.
As sport seasons change, adjust food and medications
accordingly. For instance, when your recreational tennis league
starts up its season, you might be surprised to find your blood
sugar running low if you don't account for the twice-a-week
tennis practices.
3. Be prepared.
Keep essentials with you. If you're working up a sweat away
from home, carry a high-carbohydrate snack, diabetes ID
(bracelet, necklace, or sneaker tag), and a cell phone for
emergencies.
Brief a buddy onemergency
procedures. Make sure someone in the
vicinity knows that you have diabetes and knows what to do in
an emergency. If you're working out at home, make sure a family
member is nearby; if you're at the gym, alert a staff member.
Don shoes designed specifically for your sport. That means
running shoes for running, soccer shoes for soccer, tennis
shoes for tennis, and so on. Sneakers with air or gel
cushioning are a good bet because they will absorb shocks to
your feet and knees.
Drink plenty of water before exercising. In the two hours
before you start working out, drink at least two cups of water.
4. Learn how to warm up and cool down.
Start moving around and stretching 5 or 10 minutes before real
physical activity. A warm-up can entail a light-and-easy
version of the primary exercise. For instance, if you plan to
go running, warm up with a 5- or 10-minute walk and then some
gentle stretches to get your muscles ready for more intense
activity. Weightlifting while your muscles are cold can injure
you, too; before you lift anything heavy, raise your body
temperature by jogging, riding a stationary bike, or walking on
a treadmill.
Cool down gradually. As with the warm-up, do a brief, light
version of your workout, keeping your arms and legs moving
while your heart rate and breathing slow down.
5. Exercise care while exerting yourself.
Exhale during every lift. When you are lifting weights, exhale
during exertion and inhale while you are returning the weight
to its starting position. Holding your breath while lifting
weights can be dangerous. Not only does it raise your blood
pressure, but it also raises the pressure within your eyes and
can worsen eye diseases to which people with diabetes are
vulnerable, such as glaucoma and diabetic retinopathy.
Watch for symptoms of hypoglycemia. It's easy to mistake
symptoms of hypoglycemia for the effects of exercise. Among the
signs of low blood sugar are profuse sweating, rapid heartbeat,
trembling, extreme hunger, difficulty thinking, blurred vision,
loss of coordination, and "just not feeling right." If you
suspect you have hypoglycemia, stop exercising immediately and
consume a source of glucose, such as raisins, hard candy, water
with fruit juice added to it, or glucose tablets.
If you feel pain, stop exercising. We've said it before, but it
is worth repeating: If you start to feel uncomfortable or short
of breath when you are exercising, immediately reduce your
degree of exertion or stop exercising altogether.
Drink water while you're working out. Experts recommend at
least one-half to 1 cup of water every 15 minutes.
Avoid exercising in extreme temperatures. If it's particularly
hot or cold outside, find an indoor venue for your workout. In
particular, be wary of hot, humid weather because it will be
difficult for your body to cool down.

Diabetic Snacker Fresh Summer Vegetables Buying Guide Nutritional Food Shopping Tips

Vegetables Buying Guide:

Ambrosia & Honeycrisp Apples
Crisp, Sweet & Juicy, these apples have it all. Both
Honeycrisp and Ambrosia Apples are sweet, firm apples.
Both Honeycrisp and Ambrosia Apples are sweet, firm apples.
As you would expect with a name like Honeycrisp, this apple is
sweet and absolutely bursting with crispness. However, they are
also an unexpectedly tender treat!
Ambrosia literally means "Food of the Gods," and the Ambrosia
Apple -- a juicy, aromatic apple with an almost iridescent pink
blush and patches of yellow on the skin -- lives up to it's
name.
Whatever the color, apples should be firm with no discoloration
or soft spots. A healthy, crisp apple will have shiny skin.

Choose asparagus stalks that are firm. The stalk should be a
uniform green all the way to the stem end; the leafy tip of
each stalk can be deep green or purplish. An ideal stalk tip is
closed and compact. Avoid spears that feel sandy or appear
wilted. Asparagus can be eaten raw, stir-fried, lightly
steamed, microwaved or grilled. They're nutritious, easy to
prepare and add color and variety to your meal.

Select red bartlett pears that are medium-sized or larger with
no bruises and only a few minor markings. Avoid pears with deep
soft spots or scars. The coloring of a ripe red bartlett pear
will be medium-red to brownish-red, and the pear will have a
sweet fragrance.

Fingerling Potatoes
Grown for flavor and tenderness, which make an excellent choice
for on the grill, roasted or steamed. Available in two
varieties: Ruby Red and Russian Banana.
Fingerling Potatoes should feel solid, and should adhere to the
popular color for their variety (i.e. some are dark red, some
are golden and some are white). Hints of green, dark spots, or
shriveling on a potato's skin are a sign of spoilage. If a
Fingerling Potato is at all malleable when squeezed, it may be
past its prime. Avoid potatoes with sprouts growing from them;
these are too old and may contain significant amounts of the
natural toxin solanine.

Sweet Potatoes
Sweet Potatoes are rich in beta-carotene and vitamins A, C, and
E - antioxidants that can help prevent heart disease and
cancer, bolster the immune system and even slow aging by
promoting good vision and healthy skin.
Choose firm, plump, smooth-skinned sweet potatoes without
blemishes. A great way to check the ripeness of a sweet potato
is to examine its tips, where a potato usually starts showing
signs of rot. It is normal for sweet potatoes to be oblong in
shape.
There are a variety of sweet potatoes from which to choose.
Typically, the lighter-colored flesh will emit a milder flavor.
Sweet potatoes are generally available year round.
If you plan to cook several sweet potatoes at once, it is wise
to select those that are similar in size to promote even
cooking.
Keep raw sweet potatoes in a dry area at room temperature for
up to a week. Do not refrigerate raw sweet potatoes, as they
will lose optimal flavor and texture. Also, do not wash raw
sweet potatoes before storage as the moisture can accelerate
decay. If you have a cellar that is closer to 55 degrees, raw
sweet potatoes will keep up to a month. Refrigerate cooked
sweet potatoes up to three days.
Always scrub a sweet potato under cool running water before use
to remove any dirt on the skin. Sweet potatoes are easy to
cook: just bake, boil or microwave and you have a naturally
sweet treat. For a little extra kick, enhance your sweet potato
with nutmeg or cinnamon. For a unique summer treat, slice your
sweet potatoes to a thickness of about a half inch, baste with
butter and grilling herbs and barbecue until tender.
Note that any American yam recipe is truly a sweet potato
recipe because what we call "yams" in America are actually
sweet potatoes (real yams are large roots primarily grown in
Africa, Asia and tropical countries).

There is no standard size for fall squash, so you should select
squash based on the amount you will need. In general, squash
should feel heavier than it appears. Make sure the stem appears
dull, solid and dry. If the stem is at all blackened, moist,
soft, cracked, blemished, or collapsed, the whole squash may be
past its prime. Note that older squash are usually sweeter.
Fall Squash:
Fall squash should meet the ideal characteristics for its
variety. Acorn squash should be a deep, dark green. Select
Acorn squash with pecklings of orange in moderation, but avoid
an Acorn squash that is predominantly orange. Butternut squash
should have a dull, uniformly tan rind (avoid Butternut squash
with a hue of green permeating the tan color).

Peanut Butter Tips good healthier snacks ideas Hi Protein Foods Diabetic Snacker
By the way, reduced-fat peanut butters have the same number of
calories as regular -- there's less fat, but more sugar and
typically more hydrogenated oil. hmm, I know, that's kind of
stupidity on the manufacturer's part now isn't it?
I love peter pan peanut butter myself I just love it. I tried a new snack with it the other day. I toasted a cinnnamon raisin english muffin and then spread peanut butter on it. It was delicious! It was smooth and gooey because the peanut butter just kept melting all over the place. I suggest you try it sometime. Make sure you have a glass of milk handy it's sooo good.

The Wall Street Journal's Top 10 Foods to Eat This Fall Diabetic Snacker

The Wall Street Journal's Top 10 Foods to Eat This Fall
From Serious Eats blog:
1. Concord Grapes: for a fresher, milder, more (or less,
depending on your point of view) refined version of Welch’s
grape juice. Delicious.
2. Kabocha: If ye ol’ American orange variety of the pumpkin is
starting to bore you, there’s always the Japanese version! It’s
an election year; I say let’s try to reinvent the local
varieties before looking abroad.
3. Pears: Perhaps they made the list because it took until
autumn for them to ripen in the supermarket.
4. Pomegranate: Careful with this one! Greek myth claims that
winter stems from the seeds of this fruit. The lobster of
produce, it
requires a lot of work. But they’re worth it.
5. Pine Nuts: The seeds of pine cones, there is something
heralding of winter in these little kernels. With that in mind,
put them in the freezer so you can have them (unspoiled) when
the pine cone wreaths are up.
6. Quince: A trendy version of the apple, it is a good way to
expand your culinary horizons. Quince paste or jelly goes
brilliantly with the Sheep’s Milk Cheese later in the list. But
with all the beautiful apple varieties available, don’t forget
your apple a day.
7. Rutabaga: Commonly called Swede in Europe, rutabaga is very
popular roasted or mashed, year round, in other countries.
8. Thyme: a bit of a cheat, since it’s available all year
round; but it does pair brilliantly with squash or pine nuts,
and other fall flavors. You could roast it with rutabaga, or
put it in a pine nut brittle.
9. Tuscan Kale: It sure is healthy, but is it just a common
good with a designer label?
10. Sheep’s Milk Cheeses: The ultimate foodies discourse on the
seasons of cheese, but they’re lost on the average palate. Do
you feel a bit fleeced by this final entry?

Measuring without cups or tools, kitchen equipment Diabetic Snacker

How to ... bake without using measuring cups
Baking is a science and for reliable results you really should
measure everything.
Which isn't always the most realistic advice. So for times when
you're baking on the fly or just don't have another clean
measuring spoon or cup, here are some tips and cheats from the
experts.
DRY INGREDIENTS
1 tablespoon equals a chestnut
2 tablespoons equals a pingpong ball
1/4 cup equals a small handful or a large egg
1/3 cup equals a billiard ball
1/2 cup equals a tennis ball
3/4 cup equals a baseball
LIQUIDS
1 tablespoon equals an ice cube
1 lemon provides 1 1/2 teaspoons zest and 1 to 3 tablespoons
juice
OTHER
1 teaspoon grated citrus zest is about the size of a quarter
3 medium tomatoes equals 1 1/2 cups chopped
1 handful of greens or herbs is about 1 cup
2 medium garlic cloves equals 1 teaspoon minced
-- Tips from Sandy Gluck, food editor at Everyday Food
magazine; P.J. Hamel, test baker and senior editor at The King
Arthur Flour Co.; and Nancy Hopkins, deputy food editor of
Better Homes and Gardens magazine
We welcome your comments or tips, recipes.
I know for myself this list will come in handy as I can never find a measuring cup when I need one. They are always in the wrong place or in the fridge already with some bits of leftovers in them. I need to get better organized, that's for sure. I have figured out a way to keep up with all my measuring spoons; I have put them all in the front part of the silverware drawer. Since I'm in that drawer everyday it refreshes my brain to know where they are everyday.

13 Things Your Pharmacist Won't Tell You Health Tips & Tricks Healthy Living Ideas

Guest Post 13 Things Your Pharmacist Won't Tell You Healthy Living Tips
By Readers Digest Magazine
"What to bear in mind the next time you visit the pharmacy counter
1. Don't try to get anything past us. Prescriptions for painkillers or sleeping aids always get extra scrutiny.
2. We're not serving fries in here. I'd think twice about using a drive-through pharmacy. Working there distracts us-not a good thing when it comes to pharmaceuticals.
3. We're human … and we make mistakes (about two million a year). Ask if we use a bar-code system to help keep us from pulling the wrong drug off the shelf or giving the wrong strength of the right drug.
4. Sometimes we can't read the doctor's handwriting either. E-prescribing can help, but as of 2006, fewer than 20 percent of prescriptions were being electronically transmitted.
5. I hate your insurance company as much as you do. "Even if something's working for you, the insurance company may insist you switch to something else," says pharmacy owner Stuart Feldman."I'm stuck in the middle trying to explain this to customers."
6. We can give flu shots in most states.
7. A less-qualified pharmacy technician may have actually filled your prescription. Currently, there is no national standard for their training and responsibilities.
8. Generics are a close match for most brand names. But I'd be careful with blood thinners and thyroid drugs, since small differences can have big effects.
9. I can give you a generic refill that's different from the one you started with. When in doubt, ask. Online resources like cvs.com let you double-check your pill.
10. We're not mind readers, and there's not some big computer database that tracks your drugs and flags interactions for pharmacists everywhere. Use one pharmacy. If you start using a new one, make sure we know what you're taking.
11. Avoid the lines. It gets busy Monday and Tuesday evenings, since many new prescriptions and refills come in after the weekend.
12. Look into the $4 generics offered by chains like Target, Kroger, and Wal-Mart. And it can't hurt to ask your pharmacy if it will match the price.
13. Yelling at me won't help. If I can't reach your doctor and/or insurance company to approve a refill, there's nothing I can do about it. “It's frustrating,” says pharmacist Daniel Zlott, “but I'd be breaking the law in some states if I gave it to you.”
This post has been brought to you by a company helping you
compare car insurance prices

Meatballs and Spaghetti diabetes friendly meal Diabetic Snacker

Last night I had another good meal that my number was good after testing. It was 129 which my doctor has suggested to keep it below 140 so that was good. I had Spaghetti, 4 meatballs,1/2 cup pineapple chunks & canteloupe chunks (good combo), 1 slice of whole wheat garlic toast, 1/2 cup ragu sauce.
The garlic toast was very good to make it I made this spread:
Garlic Butter:
Mix 1 stick soft margarine
1/4 cup parmesan cheese
1 tbsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp oregano
1/4 tsp parsley
12 ts[ kosher salt
3 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp mozzarella cheese
Mix together all the ingredients and spread on whole wheat bread slices. Place on a baking sheet and bake @350 degrees for about 10 minutes. Broil top until desired browness. This makes an excellent spread for the garlic toast. I might try to eat 2 pieces of it next time.
We welcome your comments or tips, recipes.
