Actually, sweet potatoes or brown rice should be okay. Diabetics don't have to eliminate carbs, just reduce them. The usual rule of thumb is to try to stay away from "white foods" - potatoes, white bread, white rice. Whole grain items are usually going to work pretty good for you.

By the way, broccoli is a great side with a steak.
