Before diabetes, a typical midnight snack would be half a bag of crisps or a sandwich.
The sandwich would still be possible, preferably with only 1 slice of low carb bread, but I'd still have to inject for it which I don't like before bed.
The crisps are out of the question because they tend to spike me about 5 or 6 hours later, when I'm fast asleep. No way I can inject for that
I have some go to midnight snacks (mainly chicory leaves with hummus) but I fancied something different tonight. Went into the kitchen to see what I could find and ended up eating leftover cold cooked Brussels sprouts with cheap cream cheese with herbs.
They were amazingly good and might do as a tasty breakfast as well, if I hadn't eaten them all!
Do you have any surprising midnight snacks?
