About Nacho Stir-Fry ( Healthy Diabetic Recipe )

Nutrient values

A grand favourite with everyone, these chips can be conveniently made in advance and had with salsa… or you can go for quick stir-fry nachos like this. Since cheesy nachos are a no-no for diabetics, I have added value to the nachos by stir-frying with nutritious vegetables.

You will no longer crave for those high-cal cheesy delights once you have tasted this… however, remember that even these cannot be had regularly, but only as an occasional treat!

Disclaimer:

It is highly recommended that this recipe be relished by diabetics only occasionally and in small quantities. This is just a mere ‘treat’ and does not qualify for a regular diabetic menu.

For the stir-fry

Heat the butter in a non-stick pan, add the onions and sauté on a medium flame till they turn translucent, while stirring continuously.
Add the capsicum and cabbage, mix well and sauté on a medium flame for 2 to 3 minutes, while stirring continuously.
Add the baked beans and tomato salsa, mix well and simmer for another 2 minutes.
Add the mozzarella cheese, milk, salt and pepper, mix well and bring to boil, stirring once in between. Keep aside.
