Quick help needed.
 

I am packing the RV for the summer 5 month wander. I make home-made
low-carb soup with a lot of leftover meats and veg. I have a box in the
freezer of soup base.

My mental block is which has more carbs; one Tbsp of pearl barley, or an
equal amount of ouzo ( both raw).

Many thanks

Gillian ( DH had his check-up today, and the A1C was 6.2..so the doc
sent DH off with his blessing.)

Do you mean ORZO, the little rice looking pasta? Ouzo is a Medeterranian
liqorishy flavored strong drink:-) I don't know the carb count but the
barley is lower GI adn, generally, doesn't spike me in modest quantities.

I'd go with the Ouzo, that way you won't even care what the bg's are :)
