It May Be Spring, But This Autumn Salad is Good Anytime of Year




In fact, the season's in it's name, but that doesn't matter. Robby Barbero, who wrote the book Mastering Diabetes, stopped by Tonia's Kitchen with a delicious, healthy recipe for Autumn Apple Salad. He says even though the main component here is a fall treat, the salad works anytime of year with it's fresh arugula and cabbage. Perhaps most importantly, Robby told Tonia the salad is a part of his plan to reverse insulin resistance, which then in turn can reverse diabetes. He says following the blueprint laid out in the book leads to a healthier lifestyle, and the salad is a delicious part of doing that.
