This is the perfect brunch time Margarita. This diabetic friendly recipe was given to us by Marilyn Helton, author of our Diabetic Dining on Fabulous Foods column. Marilyn always says, "A diagnosis of diabetes does NOT have to be a culinary death sentence! Marilyn originally got this recipe from Light the Fire - Fiery Food with a Light New Attitude!, by Linda Matthie-Jacobs. While this is not aspcifically a diabetic cooking book, it does contain lots of great lightened south-of-the-border favorites. |
