[Healthy_Recipes_For_Diabetic_Friends] Re: Stuffed Avocados - 9g Carbs, 6g Fiber

 

A favorite salad of mine is tuna (and I dice up black olives, some tomato,
celery, onion, and cucumber in it, add a touch of garlic powder, white
pepper, and regular Mrs. Dash) on a bed of a cup of nice mixed greens
(spring mix, European mix, or leafy green mix) and then some sliced avocado
near it and a splash of vinaigrette over it. Maybe a little shredded
parm...

This would be a somewhat more elegant presentation, so going to do this
soon!
