    Hebrew National dogs and a cup of homemade lentil soup, maybe. Or a cold cut plate (Truffle Cheese!) and a mixed green salad.

    Vegetable and tofu stir fry with oyster sauce over brown rice. Fortunately I don't tire of this and it's usually on the dinner menu once a week.

    Hey, we had salmon with a honey-mustard glaze! I served it with stir-fried cabbage (peanut oil, garlic, and sesame seeds) and freekeh. Very tasty!

    Dinner is going to get complicated as DH has finally decided to address his pre-diabetic belly issue. He has declared very limited carbs. We never ate that many before but I depended on certain things - brown rice and potatos on occasion.

    Well, it is good to address it.

    I am not clear on what causes pre-diabetes. How does one know they are getting it?

    I recommend Dr. Richard K Bernstein's book for tight blood sugar control. For rice/potato substitutes, I recommend cauliflower and cabbage. Good luck to your husband!

    Pre-diabetes means one has higher than normal blood sugar levels, but not high enough to be considered diabetes and require treatment. Typically people become type 2 diabetic about ten years after they become pre-diabetic, but the progression of the disease can usually be slowed, or even stopped, with lifestyle changes.

    Marinara over spaghetti squash. It was the last of last summer's tomatoes that I processed and froze.

    Brown rice in a bowl with assorted steamed veg on top with asian chili soy curls and a peanut sauce. So good.
