Sweetness choices — tap to lower sugar

Use the listed ingredients and amounts. Nutrition, saved shopping and meal planning remain based on this version.

Preparation guidance only. When a supported swap is chosen, Nutrition per serving below shows the adjusted values; filters, sugar screening, exports, Shopping and My Week stay based on the written recipe. A different sweetener does not establish diabetes suitability; total carbs, portion and verified sugars still matter.

Sugar alcohols may cause digestive symptoms; keep xylitol away from dogs. Aspartame must be avoided with PKU. No substitute is universally the healthiest choice.

Diabetes Meal Planning

Lower sodium: 300 mg sodium or less per stated serving. This is a site guideline, not the FDA "low sodium" label claim.

Heart-healthy tips

  • Peanuts provide unsaturated fat; avoid salted nuts and sweet chili sauce.
  • Measure the reduced-sodium soy sauce; citrus, garlic and ginger provide most of the flavor. No extra salt or bottled stir-fry sauce is needed.
  • The listed cooked grain is included in the per-serving nutrition estimate. Cook it ahead without salt; allow extra time if starting with dry grain.
