A new to me vegetable



What is this vegetable you ask?  It is a daikon radish?  What the heck do you do with it?  Well, I'm just learning about it.

As a person who is trying to reverse her Type 2 diabetes, I no longer eat potatoes.  No baked, mashed, cheesy or french fried potatoes.  I miss them.  But I may have found a substitute in this vegetable pictured above.

Here is a short introductory article about the daikon radish.

The glycemic index of a white potato is over 80.  The daikon radish glycemic index is 32.  On the numbers alone it is a no brainer!
