Recipe for a Diabetic Friendly Meal of Ham, Black Beans, and Rice

Bring a little Cuban flair to your family’s dinner table with this delicious meal of Ham and Black Beans served over hot rice. This recipe can be enjoyed as a meal or you can add other items for a more elaborate meal. This is a diabetic friendly recipe so you can serve this meal to anyone without worry. As a diabetic myself, I know it is important to be careful with how you use rice. The ham and beans in this recipe make the use of rice okay. As always, for diabetics, it is better to use brown rice.

HAM, BLACK BEANS, RICE

1 pkg (16 oz) dried black beans

6 cups cold water

1 med green bell pepper

1/4 cup chopped onion, divided

Sort and wash the beans. In a large Dutch oven combine the washed beans, water, bell pepper, and 2 tablespoons of the onion. Add the cold water and leave to soak over night.

4 cups cold water

2 cloves garlic, minced

1/2 tsp oregano

1/4 tsp cumin

3 tbsp white vinegar

1 tsp salt

8-oz cooked ham in small cubes

3 cups hot cooked rice (brown is best for diabetics)

To the soaked beans add the 4 cups of water, cover and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer mixture for 2 1/2 hours or until the beans become tender.

In a small bowl combine the remaining two tablespoons of onion, garlic, oregano, and cumin. Using a fork, mash the mixture then stir in the vinegar. Add this mixture and the salt to the beans. Stir to mix in well. Add the cooked ham and simmer the mixture, uncovered, for another 20 minutes. Serve over hot cooked rice (preferably brown rice).

Enjoy!

How much chipped ham should I use in ham BBQ if cooking for 9 to 11 people?

There will be about 9 or 11 people coming to my house tomorrow, I was going to make chipped ham barbecue in the crock pot. How many pounds of shipped ham should I use for that many people? Is there a chart/guide somewhere?

1/2 – 3/4 pound (cooked weight) per person – figuring normal people and side dishes. This will leave some extra, but will ensure people who want them can have seconds. Have a great BBQ!

Ham Biscuits, Hostess Gowns, and Other Southern Specialties: $10.16 Now in paper. Julia Reed spends a lot of time thinking about ham biscuits. And cornbread and casseroles and the surprisingly modern ease of donning a hostess gown for one’s own party. In Ham Biscuits, Hostess Gowns and Other Southern Specialties Julia Reed collects her thoughts on good cooking and the lessons of gracious entertaining that pass from one woman to another, and takes the reader on a lively and very personal tour of the culinary—and social—South. In essays on everything from pork chops to the perfect picnic Julia Reed revels in the simple good qualities that make the Southern table the best possible place to pull up a chair. She expounds on: the Southerner’s relentless penchant for using gelatin; why most things taste better with homemade mayonnaise; the necessity of a holiday milk punch (and, possibly, a Santa hat); how best to “cook for compliments” (at least one squash casserole and Lee Bailey’s barbequed veal are key). She provides recipes for some of the region’s best-loved dishes (cheese straws, red velvet cake, breakfast shrimp), along with her own variations on the classics, including Fried Oysters Rockefeller Salad and Creole Crab Soup. She also elaborates on worthwhile information every hostess would do well to learn: the icebreaking qualities of a Ramos gin fizz and a hot crabmeat canapé, for example; the “wow factor” intrinsic in a platter of devilled eggs or a giant silver punchbowl filled with scoops of homemade ice cream. There is guidance on everything from the best possible way to “eat” your luck on New Year’s Day to composing a menu in honor of someone you love. Grace and hilarity under gastronomic pressure suffuse these essays, along with remembrances of her gastronomic heroes including Richard Olney, Mary Cantwell, and M.F.K. Fisher. Ham Biscuits, Hostess Gowns and Other Southern Specialties is another great book about the South from Julia Reed, a writer who makes her experiences in—and out of—the kitchen a joy to read.

Cooking From The Heart Of Spain $15.71 The traditional foods of La Mancha tell stories all their own. Some of Spain's most outstanding products come from this region, including Manchego cheese, saffron, Serrano ham, fine wines, and flavorful oils. The cooking of La Mancha can be as simple a pisto, a medley of summer vegetables sauteed in love oil, or as complex as the layered flavors of lam stuffed with spinach and pine nuts. It's as subtle as saffron ice cream, and as robust as peasant garlic soup. In Cooking from the Heart of Spain--the first English cookbook to focus specifically on the foods of this distinctive region--Janet Mendel offers up nearly two hundred recipes for rustic, fresh dishes, including tapas, soups, salads, meat and fish, sides, and desserts. Throughout are quotes and stories from Don Quixote that offer insight, character, and a sense of adventure to this wonderful region and its fabulous cuisine.
