Does anyone here have any recommendations on low cal/low sugar dips and sauces that they're a fan of, be it store bought or DIY?
Finally got slapped with the type 2 diabetes label. A big hurdle for me is that I HATE the taste of most vegetables, but I can sit and eat raw bell peppers and broccoli all day if there's something I can dip them in! Same for cooked veggies - hate things like succotash, but ate a side of it without complaint at a restaurant the other day when the taste was disguised by a creole gravy of sorts. Big fan of things that are spicy, citrusy, or onion/garlic tasting especially, but unfortunately most creamy dressings I find like chipotle ranch are too loaded with calories and sugar.
I'm also a big fan of hummus, so if anyone has a killer DIY hummus recipe that I can make in the food processor, that would also be appreciated!
