Re: Starting low carb eating again, anybody want to join me?


Good idea Donna, I will look out for the spice kits next time I go shopping or I will buy a full kit and get the OH to eat all of the fajitas

Mmmm just enjoying my low carb icecream, made enough for two batches and I think I will pop the rest back into the freezer.

Re: Starting low carb eating again, anybody want to join me?


Recipe is for a basic custard

I used cream, couple of egg yolks, granular splenda to taste, tiny bit of milk, vanilla extract heat in a pan until thickened and then popped in my ice cream maker. You can just pop it in the freezer but you would need to mix it every 30 mins to break down any ice crystals and I believe it takes about 5 hours to freeze this way.
