Diabetics Banana Split

Banana's are fairly high in carbs -- about 30 grams per banana. But they are really good in vitamins, including potassium which is helpful for leg cramps that diabetics sometimes get from poor leg circulation.

So what do we do?

Well, cinamon and baker's dark chocolate help the body process sugars.

So, slice up a banana, put it in the bottem of a bowl.

Add a couple of scoops of a sugar free vanilla ice cream.

Make a sauce of about an ounce of baker's chololate shavings, about an ounce of cinaomon, a couple of ounces of artificial sweetner and a splash of milk by heating it in a microwave until it's all blended.

Poor over the ice cream.

Top with a spoonful of sugar free cherry preserves (about 2 grams of carbohydrates).

That should work.
