A friend asked me for snack ideas for her birthing class b/c someone has GD and I'm blanking. She asked b/c I was borderline GD (I failed by like 3 pts!) with DS, but that was over 2 years ago and for the life of me I could not give her any ideas!
Does anyone have suggestions of a good snack that everyone would enjoy, including the mother with GD?
Thank you!
Re: Snack ideas for Gestational Diabetes?
This isn't really for her class, as it can be expensive if she bought for all, but the best thing I found when I had GD was Snickers Marathon Energy bars. They are low glycemic and don't raise blood sugar, and the multi grain crunch one tastes so much like a reg snickers, it really helped when I had cravings for sweets!
Sugar Free Fudgsicles were great too, or frozen fruit bars by Dole.
