Topic: RE: perfect portion size
I just used it condensed..the water that will actually come out of the squash as it bakes helps with thinning out the soup

 Sounds delicious! Did you use condensed tomato soup or was it made with water/milk?

Topic: Got lots of pears... anyone have any suggestions?
Hi everyone,

We've got lots of home grown pears that need to be used up. I'd prefer something with no added sugars, and low carb, that could be frozen.

Anyone have any favorite recipes to share?

Topic: RE: I can eat PASTA again!
 Your ideas sound great...thank you very much!!!

Many people will walk in and out of your life, but only TRUE FRIENDS will leave footprints in your heart...And may that friendship have such a ONENESS that when one weeps the other will taste salt...Friends are like balloons ; once you let them go you can't get them back....So I'm going to tie you to my heart so I never lose you.

I do..I put them in a strainer and then rinse them two or three times and then pat them dry.  I usually microwave them for a minute and then add them to whatever I am making.  These would be excellent in any type of casserole.  I use them wherever I would use spaghetti noodles.  I make spaghetti, fettuchini, shrimp fettuchini...just about anything.   My favorite is always the shrimp pasta.  I just sautee some veggies and then add my shrimp with a lil spray butter and then add my noodles...always a yummy treat :)

Topic: RE: Protein ball recipe issue...

Do you like almond butter?  If not you might try cutting back to 3-4 oz cream cheese and add some cereal like  Bran Bran buds to help hold together.   I also have added quick oats to the mix as well.

Good luck on finding something that works for you

 Do you know if Walmart carries them? 

Do you rinse yours, and pat them dry?  I was told that its best to do that first...Ive never tried them and want to soon...I have been wanting tuna noodle casserole for ages, so this would probably work...Do you make chicken and noodles ?  What is your favorite recipes ?

Topic: RE: lots od cucumbers?
 I love cucumbers on my sandwich...Perhaps a wheat wrap with turkey, lettuce, onions and cucumbers, drizzled in some ranch or favorite dressing...
