Topic: Lost that recipe
 I used to make a biscuit that was 100% flax seed based. No flour. So it was nutty and good and had fewer carbs. It was well tolerated by my picky family and didn't make me want to eat the whole thing. I used to keep the reicpe over my counter on a sticky note and when I moved....I lost it. It came from a man who used to post facinating food info on healthy stuff. Anyone have that recipe?

Thanks!

Topic: Anyone familiar with Quark and know of any recipes for it?
I was introduced to quark, which is a type of fresh cheese, in Germany a few years ago.  My host had made a desert of it, mixed with berries that was delicious...sort of a fresher/lighter version of panna cota or other custard desert.    In Europe, it apparently comes in various degrees of fat and has a taste something like a cross between cream cheese and sour cream.

Well, I just found quark at the Costco!  I've never seen it in the U.S. before, so this was exciting...particularly since it is the 99% fat free type.

I've mixed it with chocolate pudding mix and it has a taste sort of like chocolate cheesecake. But I'm wondering if anyone might have any real recipes using it or other suggestions?

Topic: New Website
Hi everyone :) I've posted a few of my recipes on your forum in the past because they've really helped a family member of mine who had gastric bypass surgery with her weight maintenance and I noticed that many of you have checked them out as well as my blog....so I just wanted to let you know that the recipes/blog have all been moved over to my new website @ www.completecarecoaching.com so if you can't find them that's why. Take care -

I use stevia for sweetening things like tea and coffee or anything that needs a little sweetness. Stevia is made from the stevia plant.
 I will second this.. Stevia is a great alternative to artificial sugars (I firmly believe we shouldn't eat ANYTHING artificial). It is actually a plant but can be found in a few different forms, be careful if you are substituing it in other recipes since it tends to be much sweeter than normal sugar!
