I get a daily diabetic recipe by email, and this is one that sounded like an easy creation for a busy weeknight - I haven't made it yet but I think it sounds delicious! I adjusted the sugar quantity a bit - 1 tsp seemed like a bit much! Recipe comes from "Italian Diabetic Meals in 30 Minutes - Or Less!". Diabetic Exchanges: 1 Vegetable, 3 Lean Meat
