Author Notes: This diabetic friendly recipe was given to us by diabetic cooking guru Marilyn Helton of the Cinnamon Hearts Diabetic Cooking Newsletter and website.

Marilyn always says, "A diagnosis of diabetes does NOT have to be a culinary death sentence." And she's got the recipes to prove it. She likes to serve this wonderful sauce over non-fat vanilla yogurt, Angelfood cake or low-fat pound cake.

Ingredients: 4 cups chopped rhubarb
2 cups hulled, halved strawberries
1/2 cupsugar
1/2 cup orange juice
grated zest of 1 orange
grated zest of 1 lemon
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely grated
1/8 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions:

Makes 8 servings

Combine all ingredients in an heavy saucepan. Stir well and bring to a boil over medium heat. Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring once and skimming off any foam that forms on top, until the rhubarb is just ender, 10-12 minutes. Cover and refrigerate until serving.

Serve over frozen nonfat vanilla yogurt, or angel food or low-fat pound cake. Be sure to include the yogurt or cake in your calculations. The analysis below is just for the sauce.
