Strawberry Lollies, Healthy Diabetic Recipe
by Tarla Dalal
Ever heard of a healthy lolly? and that too one that is permissible for diabetics? Here you go… a very interesting and healthy recipe using curds and strawberries.
I have used oats to increase the health quotient, which is further enhanced by the goodness of strawberries. Skimmed milk powder and oats give body to the lollies, while strawberries provide the visual appeal.
Select ripe and sweet fresh strawberries, as it gives a very refreshing taste to the lollies and does not require more sugar substitutes. Plus, I have used all low-fat ingredients.
Do try other diabetic friendly deaarts like Black Jamun Ice - Cream or Diabetic Caramel Custard .
