Topic: RE: sugar free candies - HELP
i find it hard to believe that you cant find recipes. i just googles "Sugar free candy recipes" and got a ton of hits.. take a look also get creative. if there is a recipe you used to use just swap out ingredients for things you can have now.

Topic: sugar free candies - HELP
I have always made candy for Christmas, but the last couple years I haven't because there are very few candy recipes out there for me, and the diabetics in my family.  I have searched several of the recipe websites with little luck, so if you guys could send me all the sugar free candy recipes you have I would be forever grateful!

Thank you,
Ami

Topic: RE: greek yogurt as... whipped cream??
If you line a strainer with a coffee filter and place plain Greek yogurt in it overnight (place in bowl in fridge and cover with wrap or foil) the next day discard liquid in bowl - you will end up with a thick cream cheese like consistency. Its called yogurt cheese. From there you can add anything you'd like, sugar vanilla etc. I have used it as frosting by adding sweetness.. My kids dont realize at all ! Or as sour cream when not adding anything. Or it can be used as a base for dips. Some times i make another container and blend it with herbs to eat with crackers. I also like to eat a scoop of it with half a banana and some ground flax seed in the morning. It's become a staple food in my fridge !

Nothing wrong with soup.  I wouldn't load up on broth though.  Lots of meat and veggies...comfort food!
