    It's kinda funny you mention that, but my dad was recently diagnosed with diabeties(sp) & it's amazing how many substitutes you can make. (Mom & I were going through cookbooks)

    Fat free sour cream - sour cream
    Turkey vs. beef
    broil instead of fry

    etc..

    Seriously, there are so many tasty substitutes out there. The only thing that is stopping us from eating healthy is ourselfs! :bigsmile:

    I often substitute unsweetened apple sauce for the oil in baked goods. I've heard baby food prunes is also a great swap for the "fat" in baking. My sister made a great recipe for healthier choc chip cookies and they are great. I'll have to find that.
