I have been a diabetic for years and have been able to keep it under control by the things I eat. ( or not eat ). This is a simple dish and easy to make, you can substitute baked corn chips for flour tortillas and cooking spray. This dish can be made for non-diabetic as well by using ground beef, and real cheddar cheese.
