Do You Cook?

I've tried using splenda in cakes.. but they come out kind of flat and crunchier than usual on the outside with a slightly bitter taste, like a biscuit cake hybrid. I'll find out more about Stevia, it sounds interesting, thanks for the info!

My grandma uses slenda in pretty much everything, and I. I don't mind it... I looked up if Slenda really had calories and apparently it does... Thats what I found out. But whatever. I'm not looking for an argument people

I like cooking, and I've been cooking a lot recently since I started a diet that cuts out as much processed foods as possible (although I sometimes make a few small exceptions to that rule).

The only real thing that gives me the shits about cooking is cleaning up afterwards, but its really satisfying to make something that tastes nice by yourself.

Anyone do any cooking/baking for diabetics? My dad wants something sweet. I'm going to make cinnamon scones with no sugar and see if that works. Does anyone know of any sweet treats to make for diabetics?

I found these online:
Healthy Hints for Modifying Recipes - They have a section on sugars, you might also find the section on "Biscuits, Cakes and Pastries" and the "Breads" section helpful.
also this...
Recipes for People Living with Diabetes
and this...
Sugar substitute

Hope its some help to you.

This question is answered by if I'm awake or not. If I'm not thats another lost microwave. If I am good food.

Why are we complaining about health now? Healthy things aren't guaranteed to be tasty... Just like my uberly delicious burger isn't healthy ;P

Yeah totally, although plenty of healthy things can also be really really tasty.
Now that I am on a diet all the unhealthy foods of the world have tripled their appeal to me!

Unless you count heating up food in the microwave, and using a sammich maker, then no. I do not.

The hell am I reading, here?
But ya know what will always be healthy and tasty? HUMMUS :)

THIS. I've got a jar of tahini waiting to be made into hummus as soon as I remember to get my food processor back from my friend.

Also, homemade hummus is amazing, but I heard it takes for-fucking-ever to cook chick peas.

Also, I saddened myself the other day by having to call my roommate to roll a burrito for me. How does one not know this basic skill

These are great! Thank you so much!

http://forums.furaffinity.../members/26270-TrinityWolfessTrinityWolfess - the point of using a sugar substitute in a diabetics case isn't the calories, it's the glucose.
