Add me please.;-`)


Tuna dip

1-2 6oz can(s) tuna-drained.
4-8oz cream cheese softened --I microwave for a few seconds-stir-add tuna-then micro a few more seconds.Sometimes I add cheese and use Hickory flavored tuna. Yum.

Can use warm in place of salad dressing, or chill and have celery or pork rinds with it.

I hate mayo so instead of Miracle Whip (have a recipe for faux Miracle Whip using Splenda but haven't tried it yet).I use the cream cheese--actually like it better.


I have made several desserts but never write them down...most used Heavy cream,Splenda, eggs and flavorings.Made a few batches of ice cream and frozen custard--yum.

I make my own jello using Kool-aid ,unflavored gelatin and Splenda.

I use a lot of Splenda---good thing I can get 200 packets for $3.29. ;-`)

I have had both Atkins vanilla shake mix, and Carb Solutions vanilla and chocolate --they aren't that bad and if I use heavy cream and kool-aid instead of water they are even better.
Black cherry and chocolate is really good and orange and vanilla is too.

I haven't done induction yet...but since June I have cut way back on my carb intake.

I used to be a 2(or more) 2-liter a day Coke, Mountain Dew, Code Red, ect drinker and have cut caffeine out almost totally and now drink lots of water, tea and kool-aid.

Oops...looks like I was saying 4, 8 oz packages...lol..use 4 to 8 oz.

I usually have 4 oz with one can and the 8oz with 2 cans.

The leftovers are great for a quick snack and travel well for lunch.

Homemade Mayonnaise

As easy as 1, 2, 3.. Bingo. it's fabulous!

  • 3 egg yolks
  • 2 Tbls. dry mustard
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 Tbls. sugar (substitute what you like for sweetener)
  • 1/3 c olive oil
  • 2 c salad oil (canola or corn)
  • 1/4 c white distilled vinegar
  • 1 Tbls. boiling water
1) Blend first four ingredients in food processor or with electric mixer at med-high speed, until very thick.
2) Add 1/4 c oil a very small stream at a time blending in very well between additions.
3) Turn to High, and beat in remaining oils alternating with the vinegar. Beat in boiling water. Refrigerate.
Yield about 3 cups. I keep it in a tight fitting mason jar in the fridge for about a week. I use it for everything.. Enjoy!
