The ice cream recipes look delicious, but I would like some non-dairy recipes for those of us that
cannot have dairy. Thanks!

Hi Kaylin and all the wonderful subscribers,

Not sure if anyone can help with this one, but it couldn't hurt to ask. I have a request for some recipes
that will help lower blood sugar and cholesterol. I have been taking care of my mom for the last year
and a half since my dad passed away. Overall she's been pretty healthy. When I took her to the
doctors for some blood work, they told her that her blood sugar is kind of high and so is her cholesterol.
I hope someone out there can offer some type of ideas. She takes different prescriptions already and
I really don't want her to have to take any others. She already takes one for cholesterol too. Thanking
you in advance,

Dawn in Illinois

Note from Kaylin: The best advice for anyone is to speak with your doctor or dietician about your diet. Some folks prefer a physician's assistant or naturopath.  One thing you might ask your health care provider about is Fish Oil Supplements.  This inexpensive addition to your diet has been given credit
for improving cholesterol, cardiovascular health, and even helping with hair loss. If your mother's health care provider has not given you help with ideas or recommendations on how to manage her blood sugar and cholesterol, it may be time to look for new health care providers for her that will have her best interests in mind in lowering her cholesterol and managing her blood sugar.

Hello all,

I was wondering if anyone had any quick recipes for breakfast, I am especially looking for things that can be made ahead and frozen or made the night before and also if they were portable would be great but not a necessity. I am starting back to school in the fall and need to get my husband to work, my 2 year old to daycare and myself to school in the mornings so we need something quick or I know that breakfast will be forgotten. Thanks so much,

Sarah

For Tanika-

I froze 9 heaping quarts of strawberries, hulled and washed. Every morning I have a healthy breakfast of strawberry smoothie and whole wheat English muffin. My recipe for smoothies:

1 heaping cup fruit -- my frozen strawberries until they're all gone
1 cup homemade plain yogurt (made with skim milk, which makes it a bit too runny for eating with a spoon, but perfect for smoothies)
4 heaping tablespoons Splenda (I like mine really sweet)

Whip in a blender until smooth.

To me, this is the best-tasting smoothie, and definitely beats out the store brands for taste, nutrition, and cost.

For the gal who wants to make McGriddles ---- There is a Jiffy brand mix for buttermilk pancakes and waffles that is maple flavored. That might be a starting place for her.
