Healthy breakfast



 Cuban breakfast. Steam yuca with garlic mojo sauce, slice tomatoes and some calabasitas with a fried egg. Delicious!!!!! Very healthy and low carb. Low on the glycemic index for us diabetics. Always remember to eat in moderation (portions)

FYI: The glycemic index is a rating system that can help diabetics predict how different foods will affect their blood sugar levels. Cassava has a low glycemic index of 46, which means that it is less likely than some foods to cause a rapid rise in blood glucose levels. If you are diabetic, cassava could be a healthier choice than white potatoes, which have a high glycemic index of 85, according to DietAndFitnessToday.
