    What does fit in your diet? What makes guilt in a recipe?

    In my college days (way back before dirt was invented) I was always pinching pennies (ugh...in today's economy....I'm still pinching pennies) I would have friends over for an evening of fun. I would serve the cheapest beverage I could make, mint tea with orange extract. I received so many compliments and requests for the tea and had to let my secret out. In addition, I have used almond and lemon extract in cakes and they were quite tasty. My favorite is the vanilla...just can't get enough. I am wondering, if you go to the company's site; perhaps they have some recipes available.


    HAHA!!! THis is awesome. mint tea with orange... That sounds amazing! Thanks for sharing! and thanks for the laugh!!

    YES!! That's exactly what I'm talking about!! And I actually use the almond one in my coffee sometimes. Have you used the butter flavor or orange? Just curious..

    I have never seen a butter flavour one, but I probably wouldnt use it as I don't think I would like it.

    I have some normal almond essence for baking, which I havent used yet, but I have used generic peppermint essence in a chocolate shake before. I might give the almond a go in a vanilla/pb shake, but these ones are sweetened so I prefer them. Using too much tastes a bit gross though.

    I honestly just wanted simple recipes or ideas of things that I could using these flavorings in. Not criticism for miss using the word "clean"...........................................................

    For future reference, if one posted a topic saying something like, "I want to eat dairy-free by eating yogurt, whey protein and cheese," people would be unable to properly answer, right?

    It's not "picking apart words" or focusing on grammar here--your post didn't make sense. That's why people spent the topic trying to figure out what was going on here.

    Words are important. Using them correctly will always get you closer to your goals.
