Cinnamon is one of the best ingredients that someone with insulin sensitivity can eat. Half a teaspoon of cinnamon per day has been shown to be very effective at normalizing blood sugar levels. Cinnamon contains hydroxychalcone, which is thought to enhance the effects of insulin. It has also been suggested that Cinnamon prevents post-meal blood sugar spikes by slowing the gastric emptying rate - meaning that food digests slowly. (Reference: http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11506060).

Ingredients

4 medium baking potatoes
3 medium sweet potatoes
2 medium pears, peeled and cubed
5 tablespoons butter, cubed
1/2 cup fat-free milk
1 egg, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

Scrub and pierce the baking and sweet potatoes. Bake at 400 ° for 50-55 minutes or until tender. Meanwhile, place pears in a large saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and cook for 15-20 minutes or until tender. Drain and set aside.
