Cherries!

Summer, my favorite time of year, is finally here and the cherries are delicious! 
I've done a little research and unfortunately for a diabetic cherry lover like myself cherries don't have a healthy carb count.  Basically, all the means to me is that I can give into the temptation, but must eat in  moderation.  I'm finding new ways to incorporate these tasty little guys into my diet, instead of eating handfuls at a time.
Tonight I made a summer salad with:

  • apples
  • avocado
  • cilantro
  • sautéed shrimp
  • slices of cherries
All on a bed of spring lettuce with a lime balsamic and olive oil as a light dressing.  It was TASTY!
