Heavenly Ham Casserole

I have been missing this amazing old family recipe; that has passed down through the generations, often taken to family reunions, holiday gatherings or other carry-ins.  Since I have been following Trim Healthy Mama, the original recipe as it is written, doesn’t fit into the guidelines as a legal dish to prepare and eat.  

 Recently, I was pondering how I could adapt the old favorite recipe to the Trim Healthy Mama lifestyle I have been following.  I have been messing with this in the kitchen for a while, I think I have finally come up with something that will work, so I decided to share it here.  The original recipe was made with potatoes.  We all know that potatoes are a Trim Healthy Mama “no-no.”  The adapted recipe below, is the closest thing to the original recipe I have found.  This would definitely be considered an "S" Dish. I hope that you will all try it and that you all enjoy it.

Luscious Lemon Pudding Tart

I have always had a huge love for lemon and sweets.  Since I started Trim Healthy Mama, I have hesitated to eat a lot of dessert type foods because I know that eating sweets was something that I always enjoyed.  I, however, have been craving something with lemon as of late.  I searched and searched trying to find something that already existed, but nothing seemed just what I was looking for.  I ran ran across a recipe for a lemon poppy seed muffin by  Rohnda Sue  that gave me great inspiration.  I experimented with different sugar types and flour ratios hoping to come up with a bit of a dryer crumbly crust, similar to a graham cracker to no avail, then one particular time, this happened.  I believe this is due in part to the Xylitol, because other times this worked out just fine like a muffin should. The centers of the muffin sunk and I had a light bulb moment. The birth of the lemon tart, verified by Trim Healthy Mama trained folks as a H...

Yummy Pumpkin Whip

What does one trying to pick themselves up after falling off the wagon.  Off the Trim Healthy Mama wagon.  The wagon, where you eliminate sugar from your life.  A 43 year life of sugar addiction makes it impossible for allot of people to just give it up.  Even more difficult, is how does one satisfy the crazy, overtaking desire for sweetness?  Very carefully and planned out very strategically.  I know no other way.   So last night, I had that crazy "I am going to cave into the Pumpkin Pie Ice Cream if I don't find something sweet quick", desire for sweetness. So I whipped up some of this yummy pumpkin whip.  Did it work?  Certainly so.  I ate it and quickly went to bed.
