Ingredients: 4 c. of V- 8 juice 2 T. of gelatin 1/2 c. of cold water Soak gelatin in cold water. Heat V- 8 juice until hot but not boiling. Dissolve gelatin in the hot juice. Mix well. Refrigerate until geled. You may add additional spices to cater to your own tastes. This can be tolerated at the stage when you're taking in Carnation instant breakfast. It'll add some variety to your dull routine. |

Ice cream
(submitted
by Sharron Ducimo)
Ingredients: 4 eggs (or equivalent in egg beaters) 2 bricks of low fat cream cheese 1 C. Splenda or Equal 2 baskets of washed raspberries 1 C. 2% milk 1 T. lemon juice Run raspberries through blender til liquid. Then pour through a fine strainer or cheese cloth to remove seeds (I tried it without removing seeds and its awful.) Cut the cream cheese into small pieces and put in blender (after you rinse out raspberry seeds) with enough of the milk to make a thick liquid. Blend. Put in with the raspberry liquid. Blend eggs, sweetener, the rest of milk (if there is any,) and lemon juice. Mix all ingredients together. Put into ice cream maker and freeze according to directions for ice cream maker...I let it run until it stops on its own. Freezers run $20.00 at WalMart if you don't have one. Eat when ready...it tastes best when freshly made! Enjoy!!! This is a great source of protein! |
