Alicia Kwok is a professionally-trained chef with a mostly plant-based repertoire. Compelled to action by Gestational Diabetes during her third pregnancy, Alicia reformulated her eating habits and successfully managed the diagnosis through diet alone, relying heavily on her health supportive culinary education.

There is no equivalent for understanding the daily challenges of Type 2 diabetes quite the same as living with the disease.

For Alicia, the greatest lesson was that the dietary prescription for diabetes is the well-balanced formula most of us should be following. As a result, she developed highly adaptable, vegetable-centric culinary guidelines that she continues to employ today, and for which she is eager to share with clients.

Alicia is a mother of three with an innate passion for all things food. She received her Culinary Degree from the Natural Gourmet Institute and holds a BBA from the Stephen M. Ross School of Business at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor.

Yield: 11-12 six-inch crepes

Ingredients:

1 cup chickpea flour
1 cup unbleached white flour
1 teaspoon salt, finely ground
1⁄4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1⁄2-1 3⁄4 cups warm water
1 tablespoon chopped chives
1 tablespoon chopped cilantro
2 tablespoons olive OR coconut oil, plus more for pan

 

Directions:
1. In large bowl, sift flours, salt, and pepper.
2. Add water, herbs and oil to flour mixture and blend with whisk until smooth. (May also be
processed in blender.)
3. Let batter rest at room temperature at least 30 minutes. If necessary, thin batter with more
water to maintain consistency of light cream.
4. Prepare crêpe pan by oiling lightly. Pour approximately 1⁄4 cup of batter into pan, tipping pan
so batter thins covers pan. Cook 30 seconds, until crêpe is golden brown on bottom. Flip,
cook another 30 seconds.

 

Enjoy with dal, refried beans, or any savory filling you can imagine!
