Some people might would ask why you would want to eat fat-free banana pudding...others would probably say that they are watching their waistlines and that is the reason why...either way, I never met a banana pudding that I did not LOVE! 3 cups skim milk 2 large packages fat-free sugar-free vanilla instant pudding mix 1 cup fat-free sweetened condensed milk 16 ounces fat-free Cool Whip 1 package reduced-fat vanilla wafers 2 or 3 large bananas, sliced Combine the skim milk, pudding mix, condensed milk and Cool Whip in a mixing bow, beat until smooth.

I took this recipe that Tracy shared on her daily blog.  This works as a low carb recipe so I posted it here.  I don't particularly like Asparagus so I was thinking you could use fresh green beans from your garden this summer as a substitute! Hawaiian Asparagus 1 lb. asparagus, trimmed and cut in 1-inch diagonal slices 2 T. olive oil 1/4 c. beef broth 4 to 5 slices bacon, crisply cooked and cut into bite-size pieces pepper to taste 2 T. sesame seed, lightly toasted In a skillet over medium heat, cook asparagus in oil for 2 to 3 minutes.  Add beef broth; cover, reduce heat and simmer for 4 to 5 minutes, until asparagus is cooked to desired tenderness.  Stir in bacon, pepper and sesame seed.  Serves 4.

Today  I have decided to do something a bit different, I am going to combine a dish which is really nice and strictly for adults. With a technique that I usually use for kids parties so just to clarify the dish is a Whisky Chocolate Mousse served in marbled chocolate bowls this is a very different way of serving a dessert and a bit of a novelty and a good talking point at a boring dinner party, not that I can imagine any of you ever have boring dinner party guests.These bowls are easily made and you can improvise and use whatever designs or chocolate you want to create the effect you want I.E. dark chocolate and milk chocolate or white chocolate or even pipe names or slogans on the bowls or if your guests are that boring even insults the perfect way to end a dinner party maybe just write good night. I have used different images to try and give you some ideas and to show the possibilities are endless. A light marbled effect Ingredients Chocolate cups 300g good quality whit...

I tried my hand at making granola yesterday. I've always liked granola, but it tends to be pretty expensive. Also, I'm not a big fan of raisins, which seem to be a part of most granolas. So I set out to make my own version of homemade granola. I started with a very positively-reviewed recipe (called Megan's Granola) from allrecipes.com and then made some minor alterations based on my personal preferences. For example, the original recipe calls for 1 cup sunflower seeds. I don't dislike sunflower seeds, but they seemed like an odd ingredient for granola. Plus, I didn't want the additional expense. I also didn't add the two cups raisins or craisins (No offense, but yick to craisins!) for the reason mentioned above. But you are welcome to add raisins or craisins (yick) if you so desire, after the granola has cooled. I also adjusted a few of the ingredient amounts, though nothing major. Anyway, I quite liked the finished product. Very nutty and oaty. Tasty! I will c...

For anyone out there who knows how delicious Mexican vanilla is, I just found a local source that sells it. In fact, the company is just two blocks west of where I live in Springville. Who would have thought?! Until fairly recently, my family always knew people who knew people (including a former 100+-year-old neighbor) who could get us Mexican vanilla directly from Mexico. We put it in whipped cream, cookies, custard, ice cream, and anything else that called for vanilla. It made everything better. Well, now you can get Mexican vanilla without any special connections. It isn't cheap, but I urge you to give it a try. It's called Blue Cattle Truck Mexican Vanilla. It has won awards and been featured on the Martha Stewart Show. Check out this link .

It's strawberry time! This is one of the very best salsas ever....the flavors just burst forth in your mouth not only from the ripe berries but from all the other fresh ingredients.

 Almonds are a great snack when you are hungry.  They have about one carb per 10 almonds.  They really do curb your hunger.  I have a bad habit of just looking for something in the kitchen to eat.  Grab a handful of these and feel better.  I am so glad I found these.  These taste great when you are looking for a chocolate fix that is quick.  They are kind of pricey, about a dollar a bar but I think they are worth it.  Strawberries with Stevia!  Yum!  Strawberries and Grapefruit are good low carb fruits. I found these in the freezer section!  Only four carbs per bar.  The bars are rather small but it satisfies the ice cream craving especially when everyone else in the family is eating the other bars. Other good snack options are: Pepperoni slices Olives Deviled Eggs made with mayonnaise not miracle whip Celery with just a taste of peanut butter on top Celery with cheese Any Atkins candy bars String Cheese Any kind of nut or...

Delicious! All I did for this recipe was to exchange the noodles for broccoli.  This was delicious.  Just make your lasagna like normal, taking care to watch the carb count in the tomato sauce that you use.  Instead of layering the lasagna noodles with the meat sauce and cheeses, I just dumped the broccoli, cottage cheese, meat sauce and the mozarella cheese all together and mixed them up.  Then I added more mozarella cheese on top to make a nice crust.  Cook it until the cheese is melted and everything is warmed through at 400 degrees. My husband liked this better than the pan of lasagna I made for the boys.  It stayed more moist and had a great flavor.  I think you could use cauliflower or any other vegetable you would like.

Waffles 4 large eggs 2 tablespoons heavy cream 2 tablespoons water 2 teaspoon vanilla extract 4 packets Stevia 2 or 3 ounces of crushed pork rinds (I am going to try Almond Flour) 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon 3 Tablespoons melted butter Beat the eggs then add the cream, water, and vanilla extract and beat some more. Mix the Stevia with the cinnamon and then add that to the eggs. (Mixing the cinnamon with the Stevia before adding helps to keep the cinnamon from clumping up). When well blended mix in the ground pork rinds or Almond Flour. Let the mixture sit for a couple of minutes until it thickens. Then stir and check the consistency. It should be quite thick, but not to thick to spoon easily. If too thick, add a little water. If too thin, add a little bit more pork rinds. Just before you're ready to put into waffle iron, stir in about 2/3 of the melted butter. Brush the waffle baker with about half of the remaining melted butter, then spoon in about 1/4 to 1/3 of...

These little beauties are Russell Stover French Mint Sugar Free candies.  There are a total of 23 carbs.  One carb is fiber, so substract that.  22 grams of carb are sugar alcohol, so go ahead and subtract that.  That leaves you with 0 carbs!!!  That makes me happy!  These taste great.  I have to keep my Jacob from eating these before I can put them away in a safe place!
