 These look yummy! I just discovered the joy that is unsweetened almond milk, especially the unsweetened vanilla flavor from whole foods.

Go to a health food store and ask the staff person there....there are quite a few natural sweetners...some are better than others re: being low glycemic and low calorie.

Topic: Date and Oat Bars
These are a great natural snack bar that is suitable for people with gluten, egg and dairy allergies - plus its a good source of both fibre and protein.

Topic: RE: Subs for Mayo ??
I'd probably substitute light mayo but start with a 1/4 cup. Then I'd see if you have enough sauce to  work and then add yogurt and maybe a squeeze or two of lemon if you need more.

I use stevia for sweetening things like tea and coffee or anything that needs a little sweetness. Stevia is made from the stevia plant.

Topic: RE: PB2 Can you give me some info on this stuff?
 It's awesome.  I really like it.  Their website is able to show if any stores near you sell it.  I picked it up for a decent price at a local low-carb shop.  I have both the regular PB2 and the Choco-PB2.  I use it in shakes, mixed with my greek yogurt, etc.  It is simply awesome.

 I LOVE, LOVE to use Whey Low in my baking.  (I use Splenda whenever possible in other cooking...but for BAKING Whey Low is so fabulous.)

It is made from lactose (milk sugar), fructose (fruit sugar) and sucrose (table sugar) but it is designed to hit our blood streams slower and not cause problems.  Also has fewer carbs than full-on-sugar.  

There is also stevia (Truvia is a good brand).  Some can taste a minty after-taste to it, but others swear by this!
