Asian Mushroom Soup - Diabetic Friendly image

A simple mushroom soup with an Asian-style ginger broth. Serving size is for 4 but DH and I say more like 2 servings. Fresh mushrooms are a low glycemic food as they contain very little carbohydrate. That means that they do not raise blood-sugar levels as significantly as carbohydrate-rich foods, such as bread. Foods with a low GI may help to control blood sugar levels, control appetite and lower the likelihood of getting type 2 diabetes. Weight Watching Fresh mushrooms are a perfect choice for weight management, since they have high water content, are low in fat and contain some fibre: three factors that will help you feel full with fewer calories. That means less room for calorie-laden foods.

I'm allergic to tofu, so I'll have to find a substitute.

This recipe is a great starting point, but I think it needs some tweaking. I would add more vegetables and maybe some different spices.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my soup didn't turn out very good. It was too watery and didn't have much flavor.
