That is definitely the way to do it, make some for yourself. My family loves broccoli and I don't, and they don't like spinach, so I go ahead and make both. It's extra time, but everyone gets what they want. Thanks for reading.

Re: Re: Diet Sodas and Ice Cream (Reply to this comment)

Hi Dave,
I was smiling the whole time I wrote that and even more now. Unfortunately/fortunately I can taste aspartame (nutrisweet) and sucralose (splenda) and they don't much agree with me, so it's not just diet soda, it's pretty much anything low-carb and sweetened. So I'm with your wife on that one (even if she did get used to it).

I love Spinach... (Reply to this comment)
by jchapkovich
I guess that's the Greek in me. I never make it though because my husband and son won't eat it. Maybe I'll just have to make two sides from now on...One for me and one for them...
Have a great weekend!

Hey Holly,
Don't get me wrong...I wasn't trying to get YOU to like diet soda...just simply chuckling at your response to it which was the same as my wife's. :-)

Hi Dave,
Bleeeeech. Why is everyone so gosh darned interested in me liking diet soda? True, I did start to put on weight when I drank soda every day for a month, but since then I'm back to plain old water. The trick is to avoid meal deals that throw in a free drink. That green mint chip ice cream is good, though, isn't it? Thanks for stopping by.

Diet Sodas and Ice Cream (Reply to this comment)
by krus54
HAHAHAHAHa
When I read your comment about diet sodas I had to laugh because that was the same reaction my wife had! Then she started putting on weight. I remember when I suggested she should start drinking Diet Coke instead of the regular Cokes. She laughed at me. She tried the diet sodas and wondered how in G-d's name she could EVER drink that junk....but after a few weeks....she couldn't drink the regular Cokes. Now, whenever a restaurant mixes up the drinks and gives her a REGULAR Coke, she gags!
Also, mint chocolate chip....my FAVORITE ice cream!!

Hi Ryan. Barbecued salmon is the best. You can use your favorite teriyaki or barbecue sauce, or just drizzle with lemon, olive oil, salt and pepper. Yum. I think I'll make some for dinner tonight. Thanks for the writeoff.

Thanks, Ron. NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER NEVER will I try to like diet soda. I'd rather do without. Now, let me tell you how I really feel...

Hi Christine. You haven't lived until you've tried this. It'll keep you awake for hours.
Cut and paste to see television celebrity chef Emeril Lagasse's flourless chocolate cake recipe:
http://www.foodnetwork.com/food/recipes/recipe/0,,FOOD_9936_30296,00.html
To display the recipe, click on what size you want the recipe printed (full page, 3x5" card, etc.)
I usually get this from the bakery, but in the name of research to find this recipe, now I'll have to try to make it myself. Enjoy!

Pretty cool list Holly (Reply to this comment)

So you hate the Diet Soda after taste do you? Let this 5 sodas a day habit member give you some inside information. About 15 years I tried to start drinking Diet sodas and tried many different ones and hated them especially the after taste. A couple years later I decided I didnt have a choice, of either totally doing without, gain a ton of weight or drink an occasional Diet. It took about 4 or 5 weeks but then the Diet started tasting great to me.
My Wife went through the same identical thing and swore she would never drink Diets again. But she had no choice as well because of her High Blood Sugar so she went for it and also got used to them. The 2 Best ones to drink that taste as good or better than the non-diet version is Diet Mt. Dew & Diet Dr. Pepper. Try it you will eventually like them Im sure.

okay ... (Reply to this comment)
by hollynz
... I was with you and doing okay, sort of, until you got to the flourless chocolate cake. This I don't understand at all, how can a cake not have flour?
Really confused this time.
