There are numerous diabetes friendly foods one can eat such as fresh vegetables salads and of course charcoaled ameletita , karaolous, louvana, all accompanied by none other than zivania.I particularly enjoy fresh artichokes when in season, a few repania, aggouraki and a little yogurt. Avocado pears are also an excellent food drenched in olive oil, vinegar and mixed with yogurt.
Olives are also Diabetes friendly and delicious too and are a good accompaniment to any food. The stalks of broccoli with a little salt and lemon are ...therapeutic in many ways and delicious too.
By the way, why is it that the Greeks end almost all as "aki" ie "neraki, psomaki , psaraki etc and yet aggouraki is aggouri !!
You should also watch what you post, ol' fart.
