Topic: Mock Potato Salad
I love recipes that remind me of foods I used to love. One of those foods was potatoes, I have had whipped cauliflower and it tasted good as a replacement for mashed potatoes but this potato salad was more amazing then that.
Mock Potato Salad
16 oz Frozen Cauliflower Florets
3 Tablespoons Yellow Mustard
1/2 Cup Fat-Free Mayonnaise Dressing
2 Tablespoons Mt Olive - Sugar Free Sweet Pickle Relish
1/8 teaspoon Celery seed
1/4 teaspoon Pepper
1/2 teaspoon Salt
4 Hard-boiled Eggs, Chopped
2 Celery stalks, Chopped
3 Green Onions, Chopped
Cook the cauliflower until soft, not mushy. Drain well, cool then cut into bite-size pieces. Mix the Mustard, mayonnaise, relish, celery seed, pepper and salt together. Combine the mustard mixture and remaining ingredients with the cauliflower folding gently. Chill for at least 2 hours.
Serves 8

Topic: RE: very dry cake
Was this a cake that ordinarily uses Regular Pepsi and you substituted Diet?
Sugar is hydroscopic and most sugar subsitiutes are not. This would mean the batter could not hold on to the water during baking.
Was the cake overcooked? If the internal temperature of the cake gets over boiling, the water will escape as steam.

the pre-made sugar free icings are not too bad...they only have vanilla and chocolate but they are pretty good..I find them at Wal-Mart
Topic: RE: what to do with Banana"s
I saw Racheal Ray make ice cream out of them..I tried it and it's absolutely fabulous and a great dessert!!..
She peeled 2 bananas and cut them in half and froze them in a freezer bag....then when they were solid..she added them to the food processor ( I used the blender) and pulsed them...after a few pulses she added some skim milk...you just keep adding skim milk til it gets to the consistency that you like...she then scooped it into a dish and added a drizzle of chocolate sauce and a teaspoon of nuts and there you have it. I found it to be super simple to make and very good !

Topic: Best Salad Ever!!!
OK I am not one to eat beans- at all, so I was really surprised when I tried this salad over at my sister's house and it was so delicious! I bet that I make it at least once a week now. I shared this with the Kingston group over the summer and promised to post the recipe, but then went on vacation. So here it finally is!!
Tuscan Chicken Salad- 4 servings, 428 cal per serving (but in reality you eat alot less than 1 serving, so *****ally knows the cal per serving) Taken from: http://www.weightlossforall.com/1200-calorie-diet-sample.htm
1- 15 ounce can of cannellini beans rinced and drained
2 1/2 cups of diced cooked chicken breast
1 1/2 cups diced celery
1/4 cup crumbled feta cheese
1 cup coarsley chopped basil
salt & ground pepper to taste (optional)
2 cups torn romaine lettuce
2 cups radicchio lettuce (I don't use this as I don't like the taste, so I add an different type of lettuce)
Vinaigrette:
3 garlic cloves (less if you like)
1/4 tsp of salt
6 tbs of olive oil
1/4 c white wine vinegar or red wine vinegar
1 tbsp of dijion mustard ( I usually use a little bit less)
Mix up and serve- it really is the best salad ever, b/c you don't taste the beans or the celery, and it is so good for you!!! Hope you like!

1 small tub of Cool Whip Free, 1 package of sugar free pudding (any flavor).
Mix the dry pudding powder into the Cool Whip Free then spread it on the cake. Chocolate is good.
