Mexican food for diabetics?

[desidiabulum]

Hi all. Are there any ways that people have found to customize Mexican food so that it doesn't send bgs through the roof? I know it's not a very seasonal question but I can't eat turkey every day, and my better half is a non-diabetic American who pines for enchilladas

I've found I'm OK with most mexican style food if I substitute tortillas for low carb wraps such as these - https://www.ocado.com/webshop/product/Carbzone-Low-Carb-Tortilla-Large/248827011 and leave out the beans

Can't say I've ever really had a problem with Mexican food, but you do need to be aware that the Pizza Effect can come into play due to the often high fat content of the meat dishes when eaten with the carbs.

Many thanks for the Carbzone ref -- I will definitely give this a try. Shame about the beans.....
