A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.

This is a standard dessert for low carbers! If you watch carbs you have to try this recipe to cure your cravings for dessert.

I used the whole 15oz. of Ricotta that it came in, to which I added 5 Splendas, and 1 1/4 tsp almond extract. It was great!

Quick to prepare, easy to clean up and delicious to eat, this recipe is a satisfying alternative to pudding or ice cream, and provides some protein to boot. It's also great as part of a light meal. Make this any time you feel the need for a guilt-free indulgence. To add some decadence, serve it in a pretty wine glass (I always do) with or without a sprig of mint and some chocolate shavings. Try other flavors: replace the almond extract with vanilla, pineapple, lemon, or any of the many available extract flavorings available today. Bon appetito!

Some ricotta's have a grit to them, keep trying brands until you find a smooth one. Great recipe, almond is the best flavor we have tried hands down.

I love this recipe. I can eat it for breakfast or for dessert. Very helpful for those late night ice cream folks. ;-)
