Welcome Chris..Look at this!! Sub and use a Mergaine Crust and use splenda for the sugar..this is posted in the recipe section of LCF...but thought would post here before bed..going to make this weekend coming up..


Delicious! Chocolate Pie

2 sticks regular butter, softened
1 1/2 cups sugar ( use Splenda or Stevia here)
4 ounces unsweetened chocolate, melted (going to use 85 percent Linet)
1 teaspoon vanilla
4 eggs
1 baked pie shell (mergaine shell here)

Beat butter and sugar together until light and fluffy, then mix in cooled melted chocolate. Add vanilla and mix. Turn the mixer to medium speed, then add in the four eggs, one at a time, mixing for 4 to 6 minutes after the addition of each egg. Scrape sides of bowl once during mixing. Pour into the cooled pie shell and refrigerate for at least two hours or overnight. Plop whipped cream on top and serve. Garnish with chocolate curls if you’re feeling sassy.

Love,
Pioneer Woman

As I said..I am going to make merigane crust and top with LC whipping cream..YUMM!! Cant tell my TOM craving are up and running!! LOL

The pie sounds good, but never heard of a meringue crust!! Show me!!

He is doing pretty well, she's a little too much for him though. I had taken come really cute pics of him and his reaction to her. Then I took one where he's laying his head on the floor looking sad.

But the darn memory card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ok I know this is usually Mary's thing but this is so funny I just got in an email

TEN TIMES NORMAL SIZE


The 6th grade science teacher, Mrs. Parks, asked her class,

'Which human body part increases to ten times its size when

stimulated?'

No one answered until little Mary stood up and said, 'You should

not be asking sixth-graders a question like that! I'm going to tell

my parents, and they will go and tell the principal, who will then

fire you!'

Mrs. Parks ignored her and asked the question again, 'Which body

part increases to 10 times its size when stimulated?'

Little Mary' s mouth fell open. Then she said to those around

her, 'Boy, is she going to get in big trouble!'

The teacher continued to ignore her and said to the class,

'Anybody?'

Finally, Billy stood up, looked around nervously, and said, 'The

body part that increases 10 times its size when stimulated is the

pupil of the eye.

Mrs. Parks said, 'Very good, Billy.'

Then she turned to Mary and continued . . 'As for you, young

lady, I have three things to say:

One . . . you have a dirty mind.

Two . . . you didn't read your homework.

And three . . . one day you are going to be very, very

disappointed.'

Wow. I finally check in and everyone's off to bed!

Not having a good few days. The "c" word is back BIG time. the magnesium isn't helping, the Korean herbs that hubby takes (of which, ONE, usually sends me running to the bathroom) are not working. I'm bloated and hurt bleh....... So no more muffin in a minute for this kid. that darned flaxseed meal just clogs me up. I have finally learned my lesson.

I just took some MOMA on top of EVERYthing else. Sure hope that works cause we have to drive to Billings tomorrow (2 hours one way) so hubby can have some dental work done. guess who's driving. gah.

Well, hope all is well. Diana, I want to see those pics!

christina I'm going to have to try that pie. Sounds delish!

chris, great joke!

Nitey nite all. won't be on tomorrow cause we'll be out of town... Stay cool!

Hey Christina- I don't like taking supplements. If you take one, you have to take others, so things don't get out-of-whack. Metformin causes people to have a hard time absorbing B12. Since I have B12 anemia, I have to double up on my sublinguals with the Metformin. Geesh. So I avoid stuff I don't HAVE to take.

And I had an ovarian cyst rupture 2 years ago. It was HELL. I went to the Urgent Care Clinic (thinking I had an ectopic pregnancy or something) and my ovary was swollen and "surrounded with fluid". I was throwing up and bleeding and it was terrible. They gave me pain meds and sent me home

Di- I finally had a BM We went out for dinner (Outback) and I had steak and broccoli. Being Celiac, gluten gives me diarrhea. Well, I guess there was some gluten hiding in my food because I had to go 20 min after dinner (gluten reaction). Hopefully the scale-gods will smile on me tomorrow!

Where is everyone else?

Final menu at the end of the day
B: Atkins shake
Leviled eggs
D: New York Strip and Broccoli from Outback

Tiffany,

I'm betting that the gluten was hiding in the seasoning they put on the steak before cooking it...but hey, at least you didn't have a severe reaction and it actually helped you!

The things we get excited about these days...

I will post that mergaine recipe in a few...

Brandon had a very rough day yesterday and has not had a BM in 2 days...He dont want to eat anything in the mornings and just eats mostly the middle of the day right now with this mess he has gotten...I dont know what to do to get him to eat...

Tiff...I hate you have B12 anemia...just stay as natural as you can GF Oh my...I hope my Cyst dont rupture..they are not very big yet he says but there anyway...Glad you had a BM...having Celiac disease is hard really since it can be hidden in many food we eat..Sounds good what you got at the Outback..we have 2 Gift certificates to use but a Outback in 1 1/2 hours away for us...guess we will just save them and use them closer to the holidays...

Hi to everyone else!!

Here is another LC Chocolate Pie recipe with a Mergaine Crust

Hi again
Here is another recipe for a LC Chocolate Pie with the Mergaine Crust...Now..I am going to use the other recipe I posted with the same crust..When I get time I will take and add it all up in Mastercook and post it..I do use Liquid Splenda in the Meragaines instead of Whey Low...about 6 drops of that or Stevia to taste.....Here is the recipe:

Upside Down Chocolate Cream Pie

4 egg whites at room temperature
1/8 teaspoon cream of tartar
3/4 cup sugar substitute (I use Whey Low)
8 0z dark or semisweet sugar free chocolate
6 Tablespoon strong decaf coffee
1 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
2 cups cream

Beat egg whites until foamy, add cream of tartar and a pinch of salt. Beat until soft peaks form, add sugar substitute slowly - one tsp at a time - beating well after each addition.

Turn into a well buttered 10" pie pan, building the sides up 1/2" over the edge making a nestlike shell.

Bake at 300 for 50 to 55 minutes.

Melt chocolate with the coffee in the microwave, add vanilla and stir until smooth.

Whip the cream until stiff and gently fold the whipped cream into the melted chocolate.

Fold into the shell and chill for 2 hours.

Enjoy!
