Sugar substitute question

[spunkin]

Ya, it's all bad stuff isn't it! The recipe I made was zuchinni muffins. And counting the sweetener came to about 4 carbs per muffin. But I REALLY wanted that muffin, LOL. It was good though not something I'd eat everyday. Luckily my kids and their friends already ate most of them for me. We have tons of zuchinni from our garden.

Sounds good!!! I had a garden-full of zucchini's too -- until the squash borers paid a visit last week. I lost all my zucchini plants I'm hoping they don't hit the spaghetti squash plants too.

Sorry, that was off topic. LOL Someone just asked for recipes for zucchini a few days ago and there were several great answers -- you can search for zucchini and find it if you need more recipes. I always grated mine and then froze it in ziploc bags so I could have zucchini bread all year long. Now I use grated zucchini for zucchini pancakes - yum!

Hey now that's an idea zucchini pancakes sounds yummy! Now I know what to have for breakfast tomorrow. Is the recipe listed on this board too?
We have spaghetti squash also, it is my favorite! Now there are some bugs getting on mine too. They are little diamond shaped grey bugs, real ugly suckers. But season is almost over so I don't think I'll bother with trying to poison them. For the most part my garden has done great this year with all the rain we've had. I've got bags and bags of strawberries frozen, asparagus and brocoli. Working on canning tomatos this week and about to get a big harvest of raspberries. My peppers on the other hand didn't do anything this year. Can't figure out why since we usually get loads of them. Oh well they've been 4 for $1 at the store, so I get plenty for stuffed peppers and still have canned hot peppers left from last year. It's so nice to be able to have a garden and now that I'm eating more veggies than ever and having fun finding creative ways to make them.
