Why a blog on GD?

I thought of writing something on diet for Gestational Diabetes (GD) when my daughter-in-law had GD last year. Being a vegetarian, she had very little choice when it came to American hospital diet. She was admitted in the hospital on the 26th week of gestation with high GD and for about 3 weeks, I had to manage her diet with proper calculation of carbohydrate, protein and fibre.With proper guidance and wonderful cooperation from her dietitian, we could keep her glucose level under control. She delivered a girl baby on her 29th week, and both mother and daughter are doing great today.

Oats - Spinach - Masala Chappathi

Oats-Spinach-masala chappathi

Oats- dry roasted and powdered one cup
Atta-- one cup
Spinach --one cup
Coriander leaves--1/2cup
Green chilli -- 2
Ginger ground --one tsp
Asafoetida --1/2 tsp
Oil --2 tsp
Rasam powder -- one tsp
Salt to taste
Grind spinach, coriander leaves, chilli, ginger, asafoetida and rasam powder together just for a second. This is to make the chappathi soft and smooth
Mix atta, oats powder, ground masala and salt and add 2 tsp of oil and make chappathi dough.
Do chappathis in the regular method.
Any vegetable gravy will go with it.
Even tomato ketchup will go very well with this. This is full of fibre, vitamins and minerals. This comes out so soft that it can be taken for afternoon lunch also.
