The holiday season is upon us but that doesn’t mean you have to make unhealthy choices when it comes to what you eat. We’re here to help just in time for American Diabetes Month by transforming classic comfort foods into healthy-delicious recipes for anyone looking to eat a little bit better without all the sacrifice.

The American Diabetes Association calls nuts like pistachios a “diabetes superfood.” They are a good source of plant protein – 6 grams per serving in fact and nearly 90% of the fats found in pistachios are the better-for-you mono and polyunsaturated type. Plus, they provide a good source of fiber, for a trio that can help keep you fuller longer. Wonderful Pistachios is a brand we love and you can find them as in-shell or no shells ---they make a great snack on the go too.
