Pretty much fat and dairy free!!

If someone was diabetic, I think you could substitute Splenda for the sugar too!

TB, when you get a chance, could you post some diabetic friendly recipes?

I'm sure I'm not the only one learning to cook diabetic; Tom was just diagnosed with adult onset a few months ago.

I think this is how my mother makes hers for my dad who is a diabetic. (with Splenda)
