Stuffed squash:

halve N acorn squash and bake until thoroughly done, upside down on a pan in
a small amount of water, with a piece of onion under each half. Or however
you prefer to do it.

Stuffing for one medium-large squash, multiply as necessary:
Bring to a boil:

1 c. bulgur wheat
2 c. water (and maybe a little extra)
1 t. salt
1 small onion, peeled and uncut
bay leaf
1 t crushed dried rosemary
2 t basil leaves

when water boils, turn off heat and cover. Once most of the water has been
absorbed, stir in 1/4 c. chopped roasted chestnuts. (Slit chestnut skins
with a razor blade or sharp knife. Bake at 425 for 15 min or so. Peel off
shell and skin). Remove the onion and give it to a friend who likes to eat
whole cooked onions.

When squash are done, pack the stuffing (should be moist but not wet) into
each half, making a little mound of stuffing on top. Bake for 5-10 min.

Serve with:

cranberry sauce

1.5 c. water
1 bag of cranberries (in your grocer’s refrigerator case now, yum)
about 1/4 c. honey
2-3 t. salt
pinch hot pepper flakes
1 T nutritional yeast

boil cranberries in water until they pop (use a potato masher to speed up the
process). Add flavorings.

the object here is sort of a cranberry chutney. It should not be sweet, but
rather savory.

Title: Fructose Substitute for Sugar
Categories: Diabetic
Yield: 1 servings

SUGAR TO FRUCTOSE EQUIVALENT 1/2 “ ” 5 T “
1/4 c Sugar use 2 1/2 T fructose 2/3 c ” “ 7 T ”
FRUCTOSE 3/4 c “ ” 1/2 c
1/3 c “ ” 3 1/2 T “ 1 c ” “ 2/3c ”

Substitute fructose in recipes calling for sugar. Since it is a
natural sweetener there should be appreciable change in blood sugar
levels.
Fructose does not break down in cooking like some artificial
sweeteners.
General rule of thumb is to use 1/3 less fructose thatn the amount of
sugar called for. It can be used in all diets,but diabetics should
check with their doctors if there’s any doubt about using it.
