[QUOTE="pedro606, post: 54961, member: 14240"] Hi, Please forgive me if this has already been covered many times before. I am just confused and need some clarification. I am trying hard to eat less carbs as most of us are. I also understand that fruit and nuts are good BUT not ALL fruit and nuts. I have been 'snacking' on them when I feel a bit hungry. From what I have read and probably not fully understood-- dried apricots and almonds are supposed to be good. Is that correct. With that in mind I made a nice lamb type of tagine cooked in a slow cooker using apricots, almonds and powdered almonds. I had cauli rice with it. I also added leeks and spinach and some butter beans to the 'tagine' (not very Morroccan but it tasted nice). If someone could help and clarify my misunderstandings on fruit and nuts-- I would appreciate it. Are dried better than fresh. What about blueberries etc etc. What about bananas. My wife gave me a dessert of fromage fraiche with some grapes(white) and some sliced banana-- it was very nice but my BSugar reading was about 8 after it. Something obvioulsy wrong there. Thanks for any help and advice, Pete [/QUOTE]
