"My SO recently was diagnosed with diabetes so I have had to radically change our eating habits. He's a big guy and likes a full plate so I have been working on lightening foods without sacrificing portions. This works out per serving to 3 lean meats, 1 fat and 1 carbohydrate leaving plenty of room for the rice or noodles you wish to serve it on.****The sodium looks high because it didn't calculate for the low sodium soy sauce, figure half the sodium listed in the nutritional data*******"

I doubled this & it was good. The snow peas were overcooked. There was a LOT of broth - is this supposed to be a soup? It never thickened as I imagined it would. But very tasty & healthy! I served this over brown rice. Made for Diabetic Forum Greens Tag 5/12.

Moved from Maine in late 2006. If I listed all the foods and products I miss from the New England region I could fill a book. Having a hard time adjusting to the lack of choices at the grocery stores here. Really now, why is it that Cain's Sweet Relish is made in MN and I can get it in New England and not in Indiana? I prefer haddock, and no, catfish is not a substitute! Don't get me started on the pitiful deli selections! I make it back to Maine at least once a year with a BIG cooler in tow.
