Setting an example

I am a type 1 for the past 29 years and, since retiring,

I do a variety of volunteer jobs. One is mentoring a young girl, primary school age, for the last three years. We have a close bond and, as she is a little overweight, I do cooking with her and I choose to do some of the recipes in the DL magazines. Recipes we have done include Chocolate Ricotta and Apricot Slice, and Cinnamon

Spiced Bunny Biscuits (March/April 2017), savoury muffins, and low-fat pizzas. I have to leave multiple copies of recipes in the staff room as the smell of everything we cook together they love to try at home being no/low-fat and no added sugar. A winner all round.
