It's usually only a matter of time before a family is affected by diabetes. And one of the things that changes is how the family approaches food. There are quite a few resources, at doctors' offices, the internet (check out Diabetic Gourmet, American Diabetes Association, and Diabetes Self-Management, for starters), and your local hospitals to find helpful hints.
And now, on to today's offerings, including Turkey, Spinach and Apple Wraps and Raspberry-Almond Bar Cookies. Enjoy!

Ingredients
1 cup water
1 cup orange juice without pulp
2 cloves
4 ripe pears - Bosc or Anjou varieties (peeled, halved and cored)
1 Tbsp. plus 1/4 cup sugar, divided
4 large, room temperature egg whites
Dash of cream of tartar
Dash of salt
2 Tbsp. plus 2 tsp. shaved chocolate, from a good-quality dark chocolate bar
Directions
Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Cover a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
In a large baking pan, combine water, orange juice, 1 Tbsp. sugar and cloves. Add pears.
Poach pears in the oven until soft. Remove pears from liquid and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the egg whites, cream of tartar and salt. Beat with an electric mixer at medium speed until the eggs are frothy (about 1 minute).
With the mixer at high speed, add the remaining 1/4 cup sugar, one tablespoon at a time. Beat for roughly 6 minutes or until stiff, glossy peaks form.
Drop the meringue onto the prepared baking sheet in eight 3- to 4-inch-diameter rounds, smoothing the edges.
Bake for 1 hour. Turn the oven off, but leave the meringues in the oven for about 12 hours. Do not open the oven door.
When ready to serve, gently peel the meringues off the parchment paper.
Place each pear half in a bowl and top with one meringue.
To garnish, shave chocolate from the side of the chocolate bar using a vegetable peeler.
Note, it may help if the chocolate bar is cold, so refrigerate for several minutes prior.
Garnish each meringue with 1 teaspoon shaved chocolate.

What a Turkey!
While many of us here in the U.S. consider turkey to be the main meat for Thanksgiving, and ham for Christmas, there are those who prefer turkey for both holiday meals. Here are six turkey recipes to either add to your holiday meal or afterwards, including Grilled Turkey Portabella Mushrooms & Vegetable Kebabs and Alphabet Turkey Soup. Enjoy!
TURKEY AND VEGGIE MEATBALLS WITH FENNEL
This is from Diabetes Self-Management. To view this online, click here.
Yield: 6 servings. Serving size: 6 meatballs.
Serving suggestion: Top with a lower-sodium meatless marinara sauce.
Ingredients
1 pound lean ground turkey
1/2 cup finely chopped green onions
1/2 cup finely chopped green bell pepper
1/3 cup old-fashioned oats
1/4 cup shredded carrot
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 egg whites
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
Directions
Combine all ingredients except oil in large bowl; mix well. Shape into 36 (1-inch) balls.
Heat oil in large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add meatballs; cook 11 minutes or until no longer pink in center, turning frequently. Use fork and spoon for easy turning. Serve immediately or cool and freeze.*
*Note: To freeze, cool completely and place in gallon-size resealable food storage bag. Release any excess air from bag and seal. Freeze bag flat for easier storage and faster thawing. This will also allow you to remove as many meatballs as needed without them sticking together. To reheat, place meatballs in a 12×8-inch microwavable dish and cook on HIGH 20 to 30 seconds or until hot.
