mushrooms I only bought the button type ones so could leave them whole. I thought I might lose them in the chicken being the same colour but they went a greyer colour in the casserole so easy for me to find and spoon them out. I left them whole on his plate but you oculd always slice them up just as serving and give them a bit of a mix in the served up casserole. I also had enough casserole that I have vacuum sealed the rest and popped it in the freezer so I have a ready made dinner waiting for another time.

dietician we had the appointment with the diabetic dietician at the hospital today. Haven't been to one since DH was diagnosed with type 2 about 6 weeks ago. Anyway she asked what he eats each day and was very happy with the changes we had made to his diet and only added in a few tips for us. I am really pleased that we have been able to make this change in diet ourselves and that we have got it right.

seafiekd it depends on what you are making but you can substitute pure orange or apple juice for sugar in baking. I am naughty and use a small amount of sugar for sweetening somethings particularly rhubarb although I found by cooking an apple with the rhubarb sweetens it really well.

Have you tried... . using Splenda. I find it leaves no after bitter taste. Also is great for cooking with. Where sugar is needed in a recipe (depending what I am making), I would use half sugar and half splenda. Haven't had a problem yet.

Apple & Orange Juices are heavily concentrated sugar, be careful.
