DIET
7-UP SALAD
THIS
RECIPE IS WONDERFUL FOR
PEOPLE
LIKE ME WHO HAVE
HYPOGLAUCEMIA
AND AREN'T SUPPOSED
TO
HAVE SUGAR. -OR FOR ANYONE
WHO
CAN'T HAVE MUCH SUGAR AND/OR
ARE
ON A DIET.
8
1/2 oz. can of crushed pineapple
1
cup of hot water
One
4 oz. box of sugar-free Lime jello
One
8 oz. pkg. of light cream cheese
1
packet of equal sweetener
1
teaspoon of vanilla
7
ounces of diet 7-up
Drain
pineapple, saving the juice. Add
enought
hot water to the saved juice,
in
a cup, to equal one whole cup. Bring
this
liquid to a boil in a pot on the stove.
Then
when it comes to a boil, pour it
into
a blender and add the box of jello,
along
with the package of cream cheese.
Then
blend this mixture in a blender for
about
two minutes. Then add into the
blender
the packet of Equal sweetener,
along
with the vanilla and the 7-up, and
blend
on high for one minute. Then add
the
pineapple and blend on low for one
minute.
Then pour into a dish and chill
in
the fridge for about three hours. It
doesn't
matter if you pour this into a
covered
dish or non-covered dish. I
always
make a double batch of this recipe
so
it will last longer ! This is one of my
favorite
dishes to make.
