Tried the diabetic plate!

-
Hey, everyone! Looking for perfect recipes to build a diabetic plate? Or to beat PCOS?

The diabetic plate consists of:
Half plate - non starchy vegetables
Quarter plate - protein
Quarter plate - carbohydrates

I've prepared this diabetic plate with sweet potato for carbohydrates, garlic black pepper chicken for protein and vegetable salad with non starchy vegetables.

The sweet potatoes and vegetables were steamed and not boiled to retain more nutrients.

Salad dressing:
Garlic
Lemon
Oil
Salt
Pepper
Coriander
Rosemary

Inspired by

Garlic black pepper chicken recipe:

Season the chicken with oil, salt and pepper. Pan fry it and proceed to add the sauce with the following ingredients:
Oyster sauce
Soy sauce
Black pepper
Garlic
Honey
Ketchup

Inspired by: 
I replaced the butter with oil due to my PCOS, and it works just fine! I also used chicken breasts instead of thighs and the recipe holds good!

-Until next time!

 Hello, readers! Welcome back to my blog! I know that I've been MIA for quite a while now, but guess what?! I'm back with lots of exciting news and updates about my life to share with y'all. I've finally decided to leave Chennai, which has been my home for 19 years, and move to Bangalore for college! It probably sounds a lot more exciting than it really is.

They've helped me, even though they've never met me in person, and I'm absolut...
