yolks slightly, and gradually stir in lemon juice. Gradually fold in
the whipped Dream Whip. Spread in pie crust. Turn on broiler so it
will get hot. Beat 3 egg whites frothy (use clean beaters so whites
will beat up as fluffy as possible). Add 1 tbs. sugar and beat until
blended in. Add another tbs. sugar and 3 Equal pkg. and beat until
soft peaks form. Spread meringue over top. Spread meringue to stick
to the edges so it won't shrink when you broil it.

for the smaller cookie. You may add flavorings other than vanilla and
lemon; if add nuts, raisins and the like, however, you are altering

saucepan and mix over low heat until easily blended (or warm in
microwave until easily blended). Beat in all the remaining
ingredients except the raisins.

Yield: 16 servings
1 md Eggplant; 1 tb Fresh lemon juice/vinegar;

1 lg Tomato; peeled & chopped 1/2 ts Salt;
1 sm Clove garlic; finely chopped 1/4 ts Freshly ground pepper;

Eggplant dip is popular in many Mediterranean countries. In the West
it is often called poor man's caviar. It's good with raw vegetable
dippers or on crisp Melba toast.
Prick whole eggplant in several places with a fork. Place in a
baking pan and bake in 400 F oven for 30 minutes. Cool, peel and
chop finely. (A blender or food processor can be used but avoid
overprocessing. Dip is best when it has some crunch.)
Combine eggplant, onions, tomato, garlic and celery. Add lemon juice,
vegetable oil, salt and freshly ground pepper. Cover tightly and
refrigerate for several hours to blend flavors.

Categories: Diabetic, Desserts, Allergy, Low-fat/cal
Yield: 4 servings
2 c Unsweetened apple juice; 1/3 c Granulated sugar substitute;
1/3 c Cornstarch; 1/2 ts Cinnamon;
1 Egg; (or 2 yolks)
MY NOTE: This recipe is marked in the allergy category only because
it is a pudding without milk, also low in protein. It is one of my
favorite ways to use up egg yolks or prepare a dessert when I've run
out of milk. Probably does not require as much sweetening as stated
in the recipe - start with 2 Tbsp. sweetener and add more if
necessary. Cost to make the whole recipe is around $1.22.
In a heavy saucepan, combine 1/2 cup apple juice and cornstarch; mix
well. Add remaining juice. Place over medium heat and cook,
stirring, until mixture comes to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for
2 minutes. Remove from heat.
In a bowl, beat egg with a fork. Add 1/2 cup of hot mixture to
beaten egg. Stir until smooth. Return immediately to hot mixture,
stirring constantly. (The hot mixture will cook the egg.)
Stir in sweetener and cinnamon. Pour into 4 dessert dishes, cover
with plastic wrap to prevent skin from forming. Cool to room
temperature or chill in refrigerator.

Title: Chocolate and Peanut Butter Crescents
Categories: Diabetic, Desserts, Cooky/bars
Yield: 24 servings
2 c Sifted all purpose flour 1 ts Vanilla extract
1/3 c Unsweetened cocoa 3/4 c Granulated sugar
1/4 ts Salt 1 Egg
1/4 lb (1 stick) butter
Sift together the flour, cocoa, and salt and set aside. In the large
bowl of an electric mixer cream the butter. Beat in the vanilla and
sugar. Add the egg and beat until thoroughly mixed. On low speed
gradually add the sifted dry ingredients, scraping the bowl with a
rubber spatula and beating until the mixture holds together. Transfer
the dough to a small bowl for ease in handling and set aside at room
temperature. Prepare the filling.
3/4 cup smooth (not chunky) peanut butter 1/2 cup strained or sifted
confectioners sugar.
In a small bowl thoroughly mix the peanut butter and the sugar.
Adjust rack to the center of the oven and preheat to 325 degrees.
To shape the cookies: On a large piece of wax paper place the cookie
dough in mounds, using a slightly rounded tsp. (no more) of the dough
for each mound-in order not to make them too large it's best to
measure with a measuring spoon. Do maybe a quarter of the dough at a
time.
Then do the same with the filling, using a level 1/2 measuring
teaspoon for each mound. Place on other pieces of waxed paper.
Pick up one mound of the dough, roll it between your hands into a
ball, and flatten it between your palms until it is very thin. Then,
with a small metal spatula or a table knife, lift up and place one
mound of the filling in the center of the flattened dough. With your
fingers bring the dough around the filling and pinch the edges to
seal. Roll the filled dough between your hands into a cylindrical
shape about 2 inches long with very slightly tapered ends. Place the
cookie on an unbuttered cookie sheet and as you do, turn the ends
down slightly to form a short fat crescent. Continue shaping the
cookies and placing them 1/2 to 1 inch apart-these do not spread.
Bake for 13 to 15 minutes, or until the cookies are firm to the touch.
Reverse the cookie sheet front to back once to insure even bakinZ of
sugar and roll the cookies in the sugar as they come out of oven.

FILLING
May be frozen. Defrost in the fridge, on the way to a picnic or in
the microwave if you want them in a hurry.
Combine water and yeast in mixer bowl and let stand 5 minutes. Add
all purpose flour and mix at medium speed for another 4 minutes. Turn
the dough out onto a lightly floured board and knead a few times,
form into a ball and place in a well-greased mixing bowl. Turn the
ball over to grease the top, cover with a cloth and let stand at room
temperature to rise until doubled in volume.
While the dough is rising, cook the meat and onions over medium heat,
stirring frequently, until the onions are soft and the meat is
browned. Drain. Discard fat and juice, return meat and onions to the
pan. Add tomato sauce, catsup, seasoning and cook over medium heat
until the meat is dry with no noticeable liquid. Set meat mixture
aside to cool until dough is ready.
After the dough has doubled in volume, transfer it to a lightly
floured working surface. Knead lightly. Form into a roll and cut
into 12 equal portions. Form each portion into a little ball, cover
with a cloth and let rest for 10 minutes.
Roll each ball out to form a circle 5 to 6 inches across. Put about
1/4 cup of the meat mixture in the center of the circle. Pull the
dough up around the filling and press together at the top. Place on
a well greased cookie sheet, cover with a cloth and let stand about
30 to 40 minutes at room temperature or until doubled in volume. Bake
at 350 F for 40 to 45 minutes or until lightly browned and firm.
Serve hot, using 1 sandwich per serving, or refrigerate or freeze to

Title: Diet Cream Soup Base
Categories: Diabetic, Allergy, Soups/stews, Crockpot, Low-fat/cal
Yield: 2 servings
WHITE SAUCE 8 oz Can tomato sauce
3 1/2 tb Instant milk powder 3 tb Chopped onion
1 1/2 tb Cornstarch 1 pn Dry rosemary, crumbled
1 1/4 c Cold water 1 pn Fresh ground pepper
TOMATO 1 pn Cayenne pepper
This recipe is suitable for anyone who needs to know the exact
contents of soup.
OTHER OPTIONS: Regular recipes use about 1 1/2 Tb butter and 1 1/2 Tb
flour per cup of milk for a medium white sauce.
5 oz evaporated milk plus 5 oz water plus 1 Tb corn starch
1 cup soy milk plus 1 Tb corn starch
1 cup skim milk plus 1 Tb vegetable oil plus 1 Tb corn starch
Put ingredients in a blender and process at high speed until well
blended, or put ingredients in a jar and shake, or stir dry
ingredients into cold milk with a whisk.
Stir constantly in the top of a double boiler until the sauce
thickens and simmers, then cook ten minutes. A medium saucepan set
in a larger saucepan of simmering water works, too.
Fresh tomatoes may be cooked with onion and seasoning, allowed to
cool and pureed in a blender to make the sauce. If the tomato
mixture is colder, add a little of the hot white sauce to bring it to
the same temperature. This prevents curdling when the red mixture is
gradually added back into the pot with the white sauce.
Heat soup until it is hot enough to serve but do not allow it to boil.
The same method may be used with 3/4 to 1 cup of cooked diced (or
pureed) vegetables with cooking liquid used to make the sauce. Makes
about 2 cups. Suggested vegetables: potato with a little onion,
carrot, zucchini, cabbage with a little ham, sauteed onion, mushroom,
broccoli. Season to taste.
Tested Dec 93 using powdered milk, and (thawed) canned tomato by

Title: Banana Tea Loaf
Categories: Diabetic, Breads/bm
Yield: 18 servings

1/2 c Canola oil like Crisco; 1/4 ts Baking soda;
2 lg Eggs; 1/2 ts Orange peel;
2 tb Frozen orange/pineapp. conc. Cooking spray;
1 3/4 c Flour;
Adapted from The Joslin Diabetes Gourmet Cookbook, 1993 which used 1
large egg white plus 6 tbsp. egg substitute, 1/8 tsp almond extract,
orange juice concentrate, 2 cups unbleached flour and no orange peel.
Original nutritional info. 1/18 recipe = 1 bread, 1 fat Joslin
Exchanges 122 calories, 2 grams protein, 14 grams carbohydrate, 6
grams fat (44% of calories), trace cholesterol, 61 mg sodium, 105 mg
potassium.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Line a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with waxed paper
and spray with cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine bananas, oil, beaten egg, juice concentrate
and orange peel. Stir dry ingredients together and then stir them
into banana mixture until just blended.
Spread the batter in the pan and bake for 45 minutes or until the top
is lightly browned. Cool in a pan for 5 minutes, then transfer to a
wire rack. Slice the first sample while the loaf is still warm.
Comment in the original recipe states that the well-wrapped loaf
keeps in the refrigerator and freezes well. Slice is smaller than a
slice of regular bread (about half size).
Tested with changes noted by Elizabeth Rodier, Jan 1994. To cut down
on cholesterol use 1 whole egg and 2 whites, or home made egg
substitute.

Title: Poultry Seasoning
Categories: Diabetic, Master mix
Yield: 1 master mix
Use 1/2 tsp for 3 tb total 2 Dried marjoram
Use 1/8 tsp for 1 recipe amt 2 Dried savory
7 Ground white pepper or less? 2 Powdered ginger
3 Dried sage 1 Ground allspice
2 Dried thyme 1 Grated nutmeg
Combine all ingredients (or those of your choice) and store in an
airtight jar. Yield about 3 tbsp. (My note: cautious with white
pepper! - my dressing tastes good with just 1/2 the quantity of sage
as the recipe amount of poultry seasoning and a generous grinding of
black pepper.)
Keep a note of the contents of your own poultry seasoning so you can
duplicate a good one next time you want it.

Title: Gluten-Free Pastry
Categories: Allergy, Diabetic, Pies
Yield: 8 servings
1 1/2 c Whole bean flour (try puree) 1/2 ts Salt
1/4 c Cornstarch 6 tb Vegetable shortening
1 tb Cornmeal 1 Egg white
1 ts GF baking powder 3/4 c Cold water
Bean flour is a new product being promoted by the Ontario Coloured
Bean Growers of Ontario. If not available to you, try white bean
puree. Less fat is required with bean flour than whole wheat flour
for pastry.
Stir together dry ingredients, then cut in shortening until mixture is
crumbly using pastry blender or 2 knives. Try adding puree
alternately with shortening.
Whisk together egg white and a little less water if using bean puree.
Stir into dry ingredients to make a soft dough. Divide dough in
half. Roll dough out to 1/8" thickness on a cornstarch dusted
surface, between layers of waxed paper or layers of plastic wrap.
Press into pan, patching if necessary.
For pie shell or single crust: Trim edge leaving half-inch overhang
to tuck under and flute edge. Line inside of pastry shell with piece
of foil. Bake at 400 F for 15 minutes or until edges are golden
brown, remove foil.
For double-crust pie: Trim edge, fill, roll top pastry. Tuck 1/2 inch
overhang under edge of bottom crust, press firmly together. Flue
edges. Cut steam vents. Bake as recipe directs for filling.

Yield: 36 cookies
1/3 c Butter (margarine) 1 c Quick rolled oats
1/3 c Lightly packed brown sugar 1 ts Cinnamon
1/4 c Warm water 1/2 ts Baking soda
1 c Flour, divided 1/4 cup aside
My note: these keep fairly well in a covered container, and freeze
well according to the cookbook. Try ginger (used in some Australian
ANZAC cookies) instead of cinnamon.
Cream butter and sugar together thoroughly, then beat in water. Set
aside 1/4 cup flour for rolling. Mix together the remaining dry
ingredients, then stir them into the creamed mixture.
Add the remaining flour gradually to the dough until it is stiff
enough to roll. Divide the dough into 3 lumps about the same size.
Roll each lump of dough out about 1/8 inch thick and cut into 12
pieces about the same size. This is much easier than trying to use a
cookie cutter if you need to know cookies per serving.
Place on a lightly greased cookie sheet. Bake at 350 F about 10
minutes or until golden brown around the edges. Remove from pan,
cool. Store in a covered container. Makes about 36 cookies.

Title: Adapt Your Own Recipe
Categories: Diabetic, Info/help
Yield: 1 servings
1 Info/help
REDUCE CHOLESTEROL ~ Use vegetable oil or margarine instead of butter
~ Substitute 2 egg whites for 1 egg, or use egg substitute ~ Use more
vegetables and grains and less meat in recipe ~ Use soy-based product
to replace part of meat eg. tofu ~ Use nonfat milk products instead
of whole milk
REDUCE FAT CONTENT ~ Use reduced calorie mayonnaise and salad
dressing ~ Blend cottage cheese or yogurt with milk for sour cream
topping ~ Replace regular whipping cream with low-cal topping or
yogurt ~ Remove visible fat from meat and skin from poultry before
cooking ~ Decrease oil in marinades and salad dressing; increase
vinegar, water and seasonings ~ Use foods canned in their own juice
or water ~ De-fat meat drippings by refrigerating and skimming fat
off the top ~ Decrease the amount of fat used in baked goods by 1/3
to 1/2 and increase fluids called for to reach desired consistency. ~
Cheese that is finely grated or thinly sliced goes further ~ Pour
some of the fat off the top of "natural" peanut butters
REDUCE SODIUM CONTENT ~ Use low-salt or no-salt-added products ~
Increase your use of herbs and spices in place of salt in recipes ~
Use fresh foods whenever possible in place of canned or processed
(soup mixes, cured meats etc) or rinse canned foods (tuna) with water
~ Do not add salt to water when cooking pasta or other foods
REDUCE SUGAR CONTENT ~ Decrease the amount of sugar called for in
traditional recipes by at least 1/3; substitute fruit juices, nectars
or pureed fruits. ~ Use fruit canned in water or fruit juice ~ Use
non caloric sweeteners if needed to increase the sweetness of a
recipe without added calories. (Most baked desserts require at least
3/4 tsp. sugar per serving to achieve a desirable flavor.)

Title: Cranberry-Orange Muffins
Categories: Quickbreads, Diabetic, Breads/bm
Yield: 12 servings
3/4 c Natural bran 1 1/3 c Cranberry sauce
3/4 c Flour 1 Egg, lightly beaten
1/2 c Sugar (Diabetic try 1/4 cup) 1/3 c Soured milk (1/2 tb lemon j)
1 1/2 ts Cinnamon 1/4 c Vegetable oil
1 ts Baking powder 1 ts Grated orange rind
1 ts Baking soda
You may use commercial or home made cranberry sauce but not
artifically sweetened sauce (muffins will not rise.) . Original
recipe in The Lighthearted Cookbook by Anne Lindsay published in 1988
in Canada used whole-wheat flour, and 1/2 cup buttermilk or low-fat
plain yogurt rather than sour milk.
1/12 original recipe - 156 calories, 1 starch, 1 fat, 1 fruit choice 5
grams fat, 2 grams protein, 27 grams carbohydrate, 23 mg cholesterol,
126 mg sodium NOTE: listed ingredients & variations would be
slightly different.
Preheat oven to 400 F and spray at least 12 muffin cups lined with
paper baking cups. Low-fat muffins tend to stick even to non-stick
pans.
Measure 1/2 tbsp lemon juice in a measuring cup, fill to about 1/4
cup mark with fluid milk and add some skim milk powder to make it a
little thicker. Set aside.
Combine dry ingredients in a bowl.
Add remaining ingredients of your choice and stir until they are just
combined. Bake about 20 minutes or until lightly browned and firm to
the touch. Adjust time if muffins are made smaller.
VARIATIONS, substitute for cranberry: Banana-Date - use 1 cup mashed
banana and 1/2 cup dates or raisins. If 2 bananas are not quite 1 cup,
concentrated orange juice or orange/pineapple may be added. (Tested
Jan 94 by Elizabeth Rodier, family member ate 2 warm ones.)
Apple-Raisin - 1 cup applesauce plus 1/2 cup raisins, or coarsely
chop an unpeeled apple in a food processor.
Zucchini - 1 cup grated unpeeled zucchini plus 1/2 cup raisins.
May be made as 16-18 small muffins or 9 inch square cake cut in the
desired number of pieces. For a diabetic meal plan, reduce the
amount of sugar to 1/4 cup or 1 tsp. per serving (recommended
guideline of American Diabetes Assoc.)
This recipe is typical of healthy heart recipes with reduced sodium,
cholesterol and fat but more sugar than a typical diabetic recipe.

Title: Brown 'n' Serve Sausage
Categories: Meats, Diabetic
Yield: 12 servings
1 lb Lean ground pork 1/2 ts Thyme
1/4 c Cracker crumbs 1/2 ts Oregano
1/4 c Water 1/4 ts Freshly ground pepper
1 ts Sage 1 pn Ground cloves
1 ts Salt
The two step cooking procedure ensures the removal of most of the fat.
Combine ground pork and cracker crumbs. Stir in water, sage, salt,
thyme, oregano, pepper and cloves. Mix until thoroughly combined.
Divide into 12 portions. Form each into a sausage-shaped roll or flat
patty. (Wet hands with cold water to make the job easy.) Place in a
cold, lightly oiled frypan.
Cook over medium heat, turning often, about 4 min each side until just
beginning to brown and pieces are no longer pink.
Remove to paper towels and blot to absorb any fat. Wrap. Store in
refrigerator up to 5 days or in freezer up to 2 months. Or cook a
second time and serve immediately.
To serve: Return sausages or patties to a clean, cold frypan. Cook
over medium heat, turning once or twice, about 4 min until sausages
are brown and crisp. (Cook frozen sausages in the same manner,
allowing about 2 min longer for cooking.

Suggestion for Pork Pies: Stir-cook the ground pork mixture in the
frying pan, place it in a plastic colander to drain off most of the
fat and blot with paper towels. Spread the pork mixture in a baking
dish (try 8" pyrex), add fat-free gravy if needed for liquid. Top
with about 2 1/4 cups seasoned breadcrumbs. Bake at 350-375 F until
crumbs are lightly browned.

Title: Earl's Mozzarella Meat Loaf
Categories: Diabetic, Meats, Cheese
Yield: 8 servings
1 lg Onion; coarsely chopped 2 Egg whites
1 T Olive oil 4 oz Part-skim mozarella cheese
1 Sweet red pepper; chopped -cut in 1/4-inch cubes
1 cl Garlic; finely chopped 1/2 c Grated Parmesan cheese
1 ts Leaf basil; crumbled 2 T Parsley; chopped
1/2 ts Lef thyme; crumbled 3/4 ts Salt; optional
1 1/2 lb Lean ground beef 1/8 ts Pepper
1/2 lb Ground pork 1/4 c Catsup
1 c Old-fashioned oats; uncooked
Preheat oven to moderate (375 degrees). Line jelly-roll pan with
aluminum foil.
Saute onion in oil in large skillet over medium heat 3 minutes. Add
red pepper, garlic, basil, and thyme, saute 5 minutes.
Combine beef, pork, oats, egg, whites, mozzarella, Parmesan, parsley,
optional salt, and pepper in large bowl. Add vegetable mixture.
Shape into large oval on prepared pan.
Bake in moderate oven (375 degrees) for 30 minutes. Brush loaf with
catsup. Bake 25 minutes or until cooked through. Let stand 10 minute

Judi's Notes: I would bake this meat loaf in a loaf pan due to
possible grease escaping from the jelly roll pan. I would also spoon
off some of the fat from the loaf after 30 minutes.

1/2 c Peanut butter 1 lg Egg
1/4 c Vegetable oil 1 1/2 c Whole-wheat flour (or less)
1 c Brown sugar 2 ts Baking soda
1 ts Vanilla extract
My note: tested using 1 1/4 cup all-purpose flour. YUM! These are

Title: Fructose Substitute for Sugar
Categories: Diabetic
Yield: 1 servings
SUGAR TO FRUCTOSE EQUIVALENT 1/2 " " 5 T "
1/4 c Sugar use 2 1/2 T fructose 2/3 c " " 7 T "
FRUCTOSE 3/4 c " " 1/2 c
1/3 c " " 3 1/2 T " 1 c " " 2/3c "
Substitute fructose in recipes calling for sugar. Since it is a
natural sweetener there should be appreciable change in blood sugar
levels.
Fructose does not break down in cooking like some artificial
sweeteners.
General rule of thumb is to use 1/3 less fructose thatn the amount of
sugar called for. It can be used in all diets,but diabetics should
check with their doctors if there's any doubt about using it.

Salt; (to taste) 2 tb Parsly; fresh chopped
Grd white or black pepper; 1 ts Anchovy extract(optional)
-Freshly 3 tb All-purpose flour;
2 tb Butter; 2 tb Oil
Cut the potatoes into chunks and place then in a saucepan with enough
water to cover, adding a little salt if liked. Heat until just about
to boil. Meanwhile, lay the fish on a plate or dish to cover the
saucepan and cover it with a second plate, lid or foil. Put the fish
on the pan when the water is boiling, then reduce the heat so water
does not froth over. Cook the potatoes until tender-10-15 minutes if
the chucks are faily small. Set the aside, without uncovering it.
Drain and mash the potatoes, beating the well until smooth. Mix in
the butter, milk, lemon peel, parsley and anchovy extract, is used
Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Grease a quicke dish or baking pan.
Pour any cooking juices from the fish into the potato mixture. Flake
the flash off the skin, discarded any bones, and at it to the
potatoes. Mix well, adding seasoning to taste. Use a large spoon to
place the fish mixture in a mound on the prepared dish or pan but do
not flatten it until it is all in mounded up. Flatten the top of the
mixture sightly, then sprinkle it with a little of the flour. Use a
spatula and slice to flatten the mixture into a little neat circle,
about 7" across. Pat the sides with the knife and the top with slice
to that the mixture is even and neatly shaped, keep sprinkling with
the flour to coat the outside evenly. Trickle the oil over the fish
cake and bake it for about 30 minutes, until well browned. Cut into
wedges to serve.

4 tb Natural yogurt; 3 1/4 c Water
Salt to taste Lemon Wedges; to serve
Fresh gournd pepper to taste Fresh coriander; to serve
Thinly slice 1 onion and set it aside. Cut the other onion into
chunks, then puree it to a paste with the garlic, gingerroot, curry
powder, turmeric and yogurt. If you do not have a blender or food
processor, then grate the onion and gingerroot and mix with the other
ingrededients. Add plenty of seasoning, then spoon this mixture over
the chicken thighs, spreading it evenly over them and turning to coat
all sides. Cover and chill for 1-24 hours, the longer the better.
Heat the oil in a large heavy-bottomed saucepan or flameproof
casserole. Add the sliced onion, bay leaves and cardamoms, then cook,
stirring often, until browned-about 20 minutes. Use a slotted spoon
to remove half the onion from the pan and reserve for garnih. Push
the rest of the onion to one side.
Add chicken portions, reserving the juices from marinating and brown
them all over. Add the rice to the pan, sprinkling it down between
the chicken. Tuck the cinnamon stick in between the chicken, then
scrape all the marinating juice into the pan. Pour in 3 3/4 cups of
water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and cover pan tightly.
Leave to gently for 30-35 minutes, until the rice has absorbed the
water and the chicken is tender. The biriani should be moist.
Transfer the birmani to a serving dish, or serve it from the cooking
pan, sprinkling the reserved onion over and addin flavor. Add lemon
wedges for garnish-their juice should be squeezed over before the
birani is eaten.

Categories: Diabetic, Desserts
Yield: 4 servings
4 Egg whites; at room temp 2 ts Cornstarch
Sweetener; equivalent to 1 ts Vanilla
-1 tsp 1 ts Vinegar
1 pn -Salt 2 Kiwis
From Murray V.F. Jones of the New Zealand Diabetes Association "Make
sure that the eggs are fresh and at room temperature," he cautions.
"Try kiwi fruit", he suggests, as a garnish. You'll need a piece of
kitchen parchment.
1. In a bowl, beat the egg whites until foamy. Add the sweetener and
salt, and continue beating. Beat in the cornstarch, vanilla and
vinegar until soft peaks form. Work quickly, and take care not to
overbeat.
2. Rinse a piece of kitchen (grease proof) parchment with water.
Place on a baking pan.
3. Pile the egg white mixture onto the parchment in a 1 1/2 inch high
circle. Bake at 250F for 1 hour or until firm.
4. Remove from oven and cool in the pan. Invert on a platter and peel
off paper. Peel and slice the kiwis crosswise into circles, leave
some round or cut some in half. Arrange in attractive designs on the
pavlova. Cut in four portion. Serve cold.

Salt 1/2 c Onion; finely chopped
Freshly ground pepper 6 tb Butter; (yah. right.)
3 lg Tomatoes; peeled, seeded 3 tb Lemon juice

(For a six oz (raw) steak, I used 2 small Tomatoes, kept the green
pepper and onion the same, threw in a chopped jalopena pepper,
replaced the 6 tbsp of butter with 1 tsp margarine, and used about a
tsp of Tabasco).
Preheat the oven to 400F. Butter a shallow baking dish large enough
to hold the fish in one layer, and place the fish in it. Season with
salt and pepper to tasted and spread the tomatoes, green pepper, and
onion over the top. Melt the butter with the lemon juice and Tabasco
and drizzle it over the fish and vegetables. Bake about 25 minutes,
basting with pan juices every 10 minutes.
(My way, without the butter, with a 4 oz (cooked) portion of the
fish, and about two-thirds of the vegetables, I counted it as 4

3 c Unbleached white flour; 2 c Water
2 c Cracked wheat flour; 1 ts Salt;
2 pk Yeast;
Most rustic types of bread consist of just flour, yeast, water and
salt. I usually vary mine using a cracked wheat and also semolina
flour. It seems to give the bread character. When I was under a
Neurosurgeon, we were talking about sugars in the American diet and
he said in Iran, the bread was made with out any sugars. I don't use
a bread machine either. I bake mine on unglazeed quarry tiles and
throw ice cubes in the bottom when I put the bread in. Gives it a
nice rustic flavor and appearance. Sunday I made Pizza using 3 cups
unbleached white flour and 2 cups cracked wheat flour along with 2
pks yeast, 2 cup water and 1 tsp salt. (no fats-no sugar) Put veggies
on the top, using fresh tomatoes. It made to large rounds. Again the
only fat was the pam on the bottom and Pam on the top plus 1 Tbs.
grating cheese for both pizzas. Worked out to be about 1/2 veggie and
2 bread for 2 slices. Tasted a heck of a lot better than some of the
commercial pizzas.

Title: What Is an Usa Food Exchange
Categories: Diabetic, Info/help
Yield: 1 info/help
What is an USA Food Exchange?
It's like trading 5 pennies for 1 nickel or 10 dime for a dollar
bill. Right! Okay. In food exchanges, you may exchanges one
measurement or amount of food for another food in the same group, ie,
if by change, such as I do...I have a 1/2 grapefruit every
morning...let's say I ran out! I would look over the fruit exchange
list to see what was there that I could have from the exchange group
of the fruit list...then I could choose something from the fruit
exchange.. Ah! Ha! I see I can sneak one of Bert's orange's. (2 1/2"
across)= 1/2 cup fresh fruit.
The Food Exchange System is based on six exchanges lists: Starch/bread
exchange, meat, vegetables, fruits, milk, and fats. There is also
some special lists. Foods are grouped within each list on the basis
of similar amounts of carbohydrate, protein, and fat. For example,
one fruit exchange is CHO: 15g, PRO: 0g; FAT: 0g; CAL: 60; This
equivalent to 1/2 cup of grapefruit juice, but only a 1/3 cup of
prune juice because prune juice has more sugar then grapefruit juice.
Keep in mind that there will be some surprises. Corn, for example,
is a vegetable, but it appears on the starch/bread list. That is
because corn is starchy and its carbohydrate value is much closer to
bread then to most vegetables. Foods from the starch/bread list is
sometimes called STARCH EXCHANGE and sometimes called the BREAD
EXCHANGE---but they mean the same thing.

approzimately 15 grams of carbohydate, 3 grams of protein, a trace of
fat, and 80 calories. You can choose your Strach Exchanges from any
items on this list. If you want to eat a Strach food that is not on
this on this list...the general rule is that:
1/2 cup of cereal, grain, or pasta is one serving.
1 ounce of a bread product is one serving. (about 1 slice)
List 2: Meat Exchanges. Each serving of meat and substitutes on
this contains about 7 grams protein. The amount of fat and number of
calories vary, depending on what kind of meat or substitute you
choose. There is 3 parts based on the amount of fat & calories. LEAN
MEAT, MEDIUM-FAT MEAT, & HIGH-FAT MEAT.

======================================================================
= List 6: Fat Exchanges: Fat list contains about 5 grams of fat and 45
calories. The foods in the fat list contain mostly fat, although
some item may also contain a small amount of protein. All fats are
in calories and should be carefully measured. We all should eat
unsaturated fats instead of saturated fats.
Free foods: A free food is any food or drink that contains a fewer
than 20 calories per serving. You can eat as much as you want of
those items that have no serving size specified. You may eat two or
three servings per day of those items that have a specific serving
size. Be sure to spread them out through the day.

Title: Christmas Stollen
Categories: Diabetic, Breads/bm, Nuts/grains, Fruits, Holidays
Yield: 15 servings
Ingredients: 1/2 c Flour
1/2 c Raisins, dark or golden 1/2 c Margarine
1/4 c Dried Apricots, chopped 2 tb Sugar
1/4 c Unsweetened Apple Juice 1/4 ts Salt
-=OR=- 1/4 ts Almond Extract
1/4 c Rum 1 ts Lemon Rind, grated
1 pk (or 1 tb) Active Dry Yeast 1 c To 1-1/2 cup Flour
1/3 c Milk, heated to lukewarm 1/2 c Sliced Blanched Almonds
-(105 to 110 degrees) 1/2 c Low-Sugar Apricot Preserves
Directions:
Combine the raisins, apricots and apple juice (or rum) in a bowl.
Let soak overnight or for at least 4 hours. Combine the yeast, milk
and the 1/2 cup of flour in a bowl. Mix until smooth and the mixture
looks like think mashed potatoes. Cover the bowl with a damp cloth
and let rise in a warm place for 10 minutes, or until doubled in bulk.
Meanwhile, cream the margarine, sugar, salt, almond extract and lemon
rind. Beat in the yeast mixture and 1-1/4 cups of the flour. Turn
the dough out onto a lightly-floured surface and knead in about 1/4
cup more flour, or until the dough is soft. Knead for 3 minutes.
Put in a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel and let rise in a warm
place until doubled, about 1-1/2 to 2 hours.
Once the dough has doubled, knead in the raisin mixture and almonds.
Knead until well mixed. Roll the dough into a rectangular 12- by
6-inch shape. Roll up jelly roll fashion. Place on a lightly-oiled
baking sheet and let rise about 30 minutes. Bake in a 375-degree
oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until golden brown.
Cool partially on a wire rack. Glaze the cool but not cold stollen
with the apricot preserves. Serves 15

1 1/2 lb Small red new potatoes 1/2 sm Red onion; thinly sliced and
-unpeeled -separated into rings
1 Green pepper; seeded and 1/2 c Pitted ripe black olives
-sliced crosswise into rings -sliced in half crosswise
4 Hard-boiled eggs 1/4 c Parsley; minced

3 T Fresh; dill snipped 1/2 ts Sugar
1 T Fresh lemon juice 1/4 ts Salt; optional
1 T Lemon juice 1/2 ts Freshly ground black pepper
1 T Olive oil
Steam the unpeeled potatoes until they are just tender when pierced
with a fork, but not mushy. If they are very small, leave them
whole, or, when cool enough to handle, cut them in half or quarters
with a very sharp knife, taking care not to pull off the skin. Place
them in a large bowl, or on a serving platter surrounded by the green
pepper rings.
Slice the eggs crosswise, but remove and discard two of the yolks.
Arrange the slices over the potatoes. Add the onion rings and
olives, and sprinkle the salad with the parsley. In a small bowl,
combine the dressing ingredients. Pour the dressing over the salad.
Either serve the salad as is, or toss it gently. The salad may be
served at room temperature or chilled. Source: Jane Brody's Good

Title: Pan Bagnat (Sandwiches, Monaco Style)
Categories: Diabetic, Low-fat/cal, Sandwiches
Yield: 4 servings
4 Round rolls -pitted
2 Anchovies:* rinsed & 1 Green pepper; thinly sliced
-chopped 1 Tomato; sliced
1 ts Olive oil 1 Egg; hard boiled egg
1 md Onion; minced -& chopped
-optional 1 tb Vinegar
2 sm Black olives; rinsed,
*Anne's note: The nutritional analysis omit the anchovies; they would
substantinally increase the sodium in the recipe
"Pan Bagnat is the name for this stuffed sandwich in Monaco and in
France (where the name is hyphenated). The fillings can vary. For
example, Bordeaux-born Celine Beteta Wong, who works in the office of
the Consulate in New York, says she also fills her Pan Bagnat with
tuna. It can be a complete meal - great for a picnic or bag lunch.
This recipe is from the late Princess Grace of Monaco, who graciously
shared it with me many years ago."
1. Slice the roll in half horizontially. Remove part of the bread to
allow space for the filling. 2. Divide all the filling evenly among
the 4 rools. Begin by drizzling the bottom of the rolls with a little
oil. Drop some onion, bell pepper, tomato, egg, anchovy (if you are
using it) and olives into each roll bottom (the filling maounts are
personal choices). 3. Season to your taste with viengar. Cover the
roll with the top half. Serve cold.
