Recipe Tip
Oodles of Onions
Onions supply the mineral chromium, which helps with carbohydrate metabolism. Preliminary research suggests that people with diabetes may need a bit more chromium than others do.
Fire up the grill! A garlic-pepper spice blend jump-starts the flavor in this great veggie combo. From eatbetteramerica.
