Tomorrow I am looking forward to the sweet variety with some frozen blueberries. Thanks again for posting.


Oh good! glad you enjoyed it! I cooked the bacon before I put it in the muffin. I usually cook a whole thing of it up ahead of time then stick it in the fridge or freezer and get what I need!

I'm back to bowl muffins again for myself. I'm on a 2 week diet break from my very strict diet to a higher calorie low-carb diet. So I packed BM (bowl muffin *giggle*) ingredients and took it to work. I assemble it here in a paper bowl and microwave it! Instant yum!

I made the fruit bowl muffin, Sunday, using frozen blueberries. Couldn't help but spread a little cream cheese on top. Very good!

I found my stalls were directly related to calorie intake, so if you're careful, they shouldn't stall you. However, I can't guarantee that if you eat many every day they won't cause a problem. They have around 250 calories if you use 1 egg and 1/3 cup of CQ. Using nut flours will raise the calorie count by a lot. And flax has around 30 calories per Tblspoon.

I have a new (to me) variation! I wanted lemon but I don't have any lemon SF syrup. So I mixed in lemon juice and enough liquid splenda to make it plenty sweet, along with my egg. Its WONDERFUL! If I had had lemon zest, I would have thrown it in too. Can't have too much lemon, now can you?

Don't know if anyone's done this one already, but tonight I made a strawberrry shortcake bowl muffin:

I sliced 4 large strawberries, layed them on the bottom of my bowl and sprinkled them w/ splenda.\
(They were frozen strawberries, so I defrosted them first and kept their "juice" in the bowl.)
Then I mixed 1/4 cup Carbquik with 1/4 cup of French Vanilla Davinci syrup and poured this over the strawberries.
Microwave for 2 minutes.

I didnt have any whipped cream, but I did have sour cream (which I looooove on top of fresh strawberries!) I mixtured a little sour cream w/ a splash of the french vanilla davinci and drizzled it over the shortcake.

It was great! The muffin part really soaked up the strawberry juice so it was really moist and decadent! It tasted exactly like real strawberry shortcake. You guys gotta try it!

Maybe I should order more Sweetzfree before Splenda leans on them. Although, I must say it is a little too concentrated for my preferences.


I just MAY treat myself to a Lime version one of these days....can't have too much Lemon OR Lime...


Hey, Nancy, with the SweetzFree (assuming you can still get it or even if you have it on your shelf still), add filtered water in precisely the same volume as you have SweetzFree, i.e., if you have a 1 FL. OZ. container, add 1 FL. OZ./2 Tablespoons of filtered water -- you'll need a new container tho -- now you can use a double measure instead of "drops"... e.g., where 1/16th Tsp was called for, you can use 1/8th of a teaspoon or "double". If it's still too awkward, do an increase by another double and you can use the tripling method (I'd mark this on tape on the side of the container though).

No need to be irritated everytime you use something, now is there?

I've been thinking of doing that. I've used probably about half my bottle now, I could carefully weigh it in grams and double the water. But I really hate that bottle it came in the little dropper thing doesn't work well. It doesn't close completely and opening it is very hard. It needs some WD40 on the hinge. Perhaps I can find a new bottle for it. Maybe a pharmacy would have something.

This morning I made the muffin with 2 eggs, some leftover meatballs chopped up, mozzarella cheese and then topped it with a little onion and chive flavored cream cheese. Tasty!

Wow! That sounds really good. I bet one could make a pizza muffin bowl, which sounds a bit like what you did!

Just a note for those who have a "cash & carry" aka United Grocers nearby...they sell a HUGE variety of SF syrups (like 3 different brands and they are all $3.40 - 3.89 per bottle (yep, the big ones ). Everything from SF B-52 to English toffee and Tiramisu (although the tiramisu seems to come and go)
