Diabetic Gumbo Recipe
This diabetic gumbo recipe is a real treat. I definitely think this is a comfort food for a lot of people. It gives that warm fuzzy feeling in the tummy. It can be made with sausage, but with this recipe chicken is the meat du jour. Remember to make extra to store for another day that you might need some comfort food. :)
