This looks great!! I'll keep this in mind for Christmas baking time. I said I wasn't doing any baking this year at Christmas because I thought I couldn't have anything. Well this is wonderful to have FTS friendly recipes so now I don't have to go without. Thanks Umpa!!

For veggie dip I have been using Renée’s Light Caesar Dressing & Dip. It is found in the produce dept. at all of my local grocery stores. It has 0 carbs per 1 tblsp. and tastes great. This is the one circumstance that the "light" version has less carbs than the regular, I made sure to check. It is great for chicken caesar salad or wraps as well as dip for veggies. I didn't even pay attention to the price, I just bought it because I was so excited to find something with 0 carbs. I'll have to check next time to see if there is a PC dip/dressing similar to Renée’s with 0 carbs that may be less expensive. Renée’s also has a Light Feta Cheese Dressing & Dip that is 1 carb per tblsp.
I put in an order yesterday with the Low Carb Grocery in Markham. I can't wait to get all of my stuff so I can start to make some of these wonderful recipes I keep seeing posted. I am so happy to be able to order everything I wanted on-line because grocery shopping has been like a scavenger hunt trying to find things and most of the time unsuccessful.
Well it's a beautiful sunny day today so I am getting off the computer now and going out for a nice long walk. Have a great day everyone!

Beebs, you may want to cut back on the xylitol. My sister made me some of these PB cookies for a treat and put 1 cup of xylitol in and they were way too sweet. Maybe try 1/2 cup. They are good though, and yes it is a special treat.

Instead of Cream of Mushroom Soup you could maybe sub. with Mushroom Alfredo Sauce. I haven't fount Bertolli yet, but Classico has Mushroom Alfredo Sauce, 1 net carb per 1/4 cup. Hope that helps.
