Sugarless Recipes

[peg]

all, i enjoy seeing all the tasty recipes.  Was wondering if there are some recipes for cookies or treats with no sugar in them?

[lavishgail]

Hi Peg, I have a couple, I'll find them and put them up! Good idea. Some all though call for Splenda? So Im unsure you wouldd want that? Let me know what type of sweeteners you use if any! I make homemade muffins sugarfree, so delicious you can't tell, they are like country biscuits.. also Peg, did you went dinners breakfast lunches or desserts what kind of recipes are you thinking about? Let me know and I have a few and I'll put them up thank you love Gail.

Oh dear, I just saw you asked for cookies or treats..ok Ill check, I made fudge and instead of sugar I used Splenda, no one knew till they were done, then I told them, , after that my whole family ran up and got more .

Gail, hope you have been well.  Ya, i was looking for treat recipes without sugar, and meals too, if possible, that would be great. I read somewhere that Stevia is like a sugar, but not.  Wonder if that would be ok.  Have a good day.

Hi Peg, yes I haven't had time to go through my recipes as of yet today I had a very long day with doctor's prescriptions and I'm coming down with something I really don't want to even talk about it, so I went to the beautiful hot water Springs here near me and grabbed a few jugs of water and relaxed took some great pictures of the Ducks I was gone from morning till night I was so busy and I'm still up and it's almost 2 in the morning I just can't sleep. I will look them up very soon and put them up here okay oh and Stevia is very not so good it has a bitter taste to it you know like after you have it then it has bitterness to it I don't like it at all I'd rather use Splenda but you can use whatever you want, as far as diet sugar and stuff like that.

Also I'm not sure where you're from but I'd buy the diet ice pops they are delicious they come in rainbow colors and Cherry grape orange to the three main ones, then they have mango pomegranate and another type I don't remember but a huge box of 24 is like 4 bucks maybe less where I'm from Massachusetts, they are so delicious I am addicted sometimes ,

Also I got my mother addicted to them we both laugh because we can eat a whole box and it doesn't even make you fat.

I have a few recipes for fudge and cake instead of using oil and eggs and all of that you can use a light applesauce I'll so yogurt in place of milk low-fat also you can use flax seed powder as a flower very very good I'll write some out up there one of them is a cupcake in a cup you just make it out into your coffee cup throw it in the microwave and Wallah it's done in like 3 minutes and delicious and that to that I add honey a little bit. I will be back to tell you the recipes I have thanks I hope you have a good breathing day love g a il XOXOXO

Thanks Gail, there is no rush for the recipes, take your time. I am living in Chapleau Ontario, Canada, a small community with about 2000 people.  The closest city is Timmins Ontario, about 2 hour drive from here, and that is where i go for tests, like mri, ct scan etc. Or another city for specialists is Sudbury Ontario or Sault Ste Marie. Hope your feeling better, and have a good day.  chat soon.

Love ya, Gail XOXOXOXO

Gail, there  is no rush for recipes, i know your busy with life, as we all are.  I finally got to see my lung specialist in Sudbury after a year, because my heart specialist referred me cause my right side of heart is beating to fast, because of my lungs.  So, before he will do what ever for me, such as resection, stem cell, etc, i have to get pulmunary lung function test , arterial blood gas test, and a ct scan, then i will be going to a facility called West Park witch is in 
Toronto for 6 weeks, and be an inpatient, to rehabilitate me, and put weight on, etc.  I know it has to be done, but will be so hard to be away from my husband and family for that long.  It is about 10 hours drive from here.  Not sure when i will be going, depends when i finish all the test and they will be done in timmins, 2 hour drive from here. Hopefully i can get the tests done in a day or two, back to back, to save all the driving back and forth.  So, that is what is up with me.  Hope you are doing ok, would love to hear from you, when you can.  Take care.

Hi Peg,

Oh my goodness I just remembered I'm supposed to put up recipes for you? well I do know one you can make it's any fudge recipe I found mine on the back of a sweetener package you know they're Sweet and Low which is Pink then equal which is blue, and then the yellow one and I'm in bed right now so I can't remember the name of it but that's the one I used!

the yellow package one for the life of me I can't remember in place of sugar I used the yellow sweetener for diets, you know for diabetic people like yourself and others. So if you'd love fudge any type in place of sugar sweetener of your choice I wonder if that recipe is still on the back of that yellow box? Also I don't know if you can have honey but I make a strawberry rhubarb pie with honey and place of sugar now I know honey is very sweet but it's a different kind of sweet so I'm not sure if you can have that??

also there is pumpkin in a can you can buy that has special vitamins in it as well no sugar I don't think, just pure pumpkin, then you take and you can use Sweet and Low or any of those sweeteners for diabetic put that in your pumpkin in a can take it out of the can and put it in the way you like it and cinnamon and stir that around and any other type of spices you like and let me tell you it is delicious I put mine in the refrigerator to cool it and it's so delicious 2 me, when I can't eat anything I can eat that, but I put honey in mine and cinnamon. Those are a few sweet things maybe you can make, there's really no directions about it if I find the fudge recipe I will put that up my sister loved it and had no idea I used the yellow packets. I would never want to use a Stevia or raw sugar because yuck Stevia is so disgusting tasting, it's bitter and I don't like it also you can make a lemon meringue pie with one teaspoon or two of honey that's always good to I love lemon meringue you can use your sweet and low for your fluffing up your meringue, and I bet that's good I'll get out my recipe for rhubarb strawberry pie if you like that I think I put it up in the recipe area check it out in place of sugar put your sweet and low okay please keep us updated on how you're doing because I will worry, I hope you're doing alright I will say prayers for you take care of yourself and please keep me posted my friend, love, Gail XOXOXOXO

Thank you sonnygirl, that sounds great.

Peg are you ok? Have not heard from you since April, I was wondering how you're doing? Hope all worked out for u in rehab facility
And I hope u put on some weight. It's very hard when you're diabetic, then no one knows what to eat!! If you google it, like recipes for diabetics, I bet millions come up, or Pinterest. L8ve it there, I even made my years supply if low suds laundry detergent. Live it. My whites come out so nice and white and it just smells wonderful, I use Lavender for freshness, and also oxy for the whites..

Take care Girl's,
Love Gail xoxoxoxo
