Unpotato Salad ... it's diabetic friendly ...have you tried it ?
A recently received email prompted this post ... it was from someone who was recently diagnosed as diabetic and really enjoyed eating potato but was finding that blood sugar levels rose when eating them. She asked, with the recent better weather and salads being eaten more was there a less carbohydrate side salad that could be enjoyed without spiking blood sugar levels?Well, I thought, there is an 'unpotato salad' recipe that could just fit the bill ... read on and find out more, and I think you could be so surprised - this is amazingly like potato salad - some people take two or three bites before they figure out it’s not potatoes! This is modelled on the old-school picnic favourite, using hard boiled eggs, just like my dear mum used to make 😊
This side dish also works well as an accompaniment for both meat and fish dishes.
Ingredients
Makes 10 -12 servings
If you may have any food allergies, or underlying health issues these must always be taken into account. If you are a diabetic and not sure how certain foods may affect your blood sugars, test is best, i.e. use a reliable meter. If you have any concerns about your health, it is always advisable to consult your doctor or health care team.

Makes 10 -12 servings
2g carbs per serving
1 large head cauliflower, cut into small chunks
2 cups (240 g) diced celery
1 cup (160 g) diced red onion
2 cups (450 g) mayonnaise
1/4 cup (60 ml) cider vinegar
2 teaspoons sea salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
12 drops liquid stevia sweetener (plain)
4 hard-boiled eggs, chopped
Method
1. Put the cauliflower in microwavable casserole dish, add just a tablespoon (15 ml) or so of water, and cover. Cook it on high for 7 minutes, and let it sit, covered, for another 3 to 5 minutes. You want your cauliflower tender, but not mushy. (And you may steam it on the stove top, if you prefer.)
2. Use the time while the cauliflower cooks to dice your celery and onion.
3. Drain the cooked cauliflower and combine it with the celery and onion in a really big bowl.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the mayonnaise, vinegar, salt, pepper, and stevia. Pour the mixture over the vegetables and mix well. Mix in the chopped eggs last, and only stir lightly to preserve some small hunks of yolk.
5. Chill and serve.
