No Added Sugar Fresh Lemonade Made With Stevia

2009-09-02T17:44:00.000-07:00

Cutting the Sugar but Keeping The Flavor of Fresh Lemonade
lemons a total super food that keep your Ph in balance

Who doesn't like a nice tall glass of lemonade on a hot Summer day or any day for that matter. Lemons are super rich in vitamin C as well as calcium, copper, iron, magnesium, manganese, phosphorus, potassium and zinc. Aside from a wealth of vitamins and minerals, lemons can also improve acid alkali pH balance in our system which can protect us against infection and cancer. The only problem is the Lemonade contains about six heaping tablespoons of white sugar per serving. That pretty much negates all the awesome benefits plus it results in our kids running around like a bunch of banshees high on sugar. I am going to show you how to make lemonade without all the added sugar but retaining all the benefits that lemons have to offer. Check it out.

Have an excellent day.

No Added Sugar Thai Salad Rolls in Spicy Peanut Sauce Recipe Using Stevia

2009-08-16T10:05:00.000-07:00

(makes 8 servings)
Cook Time 25 minutes
Skill Level: Easy

Ok… this isn't exact Low Carb but, all things in moderation, right? One of my favorite restaurants PeemKaew Thai has these on their menu and it is a perfect appetizer that isn't fried, has a lot of fresh veggies and is delicious. You can substitute tofu, cooked chicken or beef in place of the shrimp. And the peanut sauce can be used as a dressing for salads. Tasty!

Ingredients:
8 ounces package rice vermicelli
8 ounces cooked, peeled shrimp, cut in half lengthwise or Tofu
8 rice wrappers (6.5 inch diameter)
1 carrot, julienne cut
1 cup shredded lettuce
1/4 cup chopped fresh basil
Water as needed

Directions:
Bring a medium saucepan of water to boil. Remove from heat. Place rice vermicelli in boiling water, remove from heat, and let soak 3 to 5 minutes, until soft. Drain, and rinse with cold water.

Fill a large bowl with hot water. Dip one rice wrapper in the hot water for 1 second to soften. Lay wrapper flat, and place desired amounts of noodles, shrimp, carrot, lettuce and basil in the center. Roll the edges of the wrapper slightly inward. Beginning at the bottom edge of wrapper, tightly wrap the ingredients. Repeat with remaining ingredients.

Set these finished rolls aside in the refrigerator for a minute while you prepare the Peanut Sauce.

Spicy Peanut Sauce

Ingredients:
4 teaspoons olive oil
1/2 cup minced red onion
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon hot chili pepper
2 tablespoons Fructevia, Steviva Brand Stevia Blend or a tiny dash of Steviva Brand Stevia Powder
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
1/3 cup peanut butter
1 cup of water

Directions:

In a blender or food processor, combine olive oil, onion, garlic and hot chili pepper; blend for a minute or so.

Empty the mixture into a saucepan and place over low heat until the mixture starts releasing aroma. Add peanut butter and mix well over low heat.

Add water and let it simmer for 10 minutes or until thickened.

Stir in vinegar and Fructevia, Steviva Brand Stevia Blend or Steviva Brand Stevia Powder; continue to simmer for another 1-2 minutes. Taste and add more vinegar and sweetener if the mixture does not have the sour and sweet taste you are looking for.

Place sauce in a shallow plate for salad roll dipping or pour over fresh salad.

1 cup Fructevia, plus extra to caramelize top

Instructions:
Using a wire whisk, vigorously whisk egg yolks with Fructevia in a large bowl, until mixture becomes light in color and Fructevia has dissolved. Now set aside.

In a medium-sized saucepan, combine heavy cream with vanilla beans which have been carefully split down the center, its fragrant black seeds scraped from the pod, and both combined with the cream. Bring the mixture to a simmer; when small bubbles have formed around the edges of the cream it is ready.

Gradually pour the cream mixture into the egg/Fructevia mix, whisking gently by hand to combine. Strain custard through a fine mesh strainer, retrieve vanilla bean and place it back into the custard. Chill and cover mixture with a sheet of plastic wrap, pierced several times to release any steam (chilling mixture overnight will let the flavors develop and allow custard to thicken a while).

Preheat oven to 350F (180C). Place individual ramekins/custard cups in a baking pan, large enough to hold 8 to 10 six-ounce custard cups and deep enough to allow the water for the custard mix to be added reaching at least halfway up the sides of the dishes.

Remove the vanilla bean from the custard mixture (can be reserved for another use) and fill ramekins 3/4 full. Place pan in preheated oven and pour hot water into baking pan so water level reaches halfway up the sides of the ramekins.

Cover pan with a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil, sealing edges to retain steam. Cook 40 to 50 minutes or until custards are set. To test for doneness, gently shake the individual ramekins; if center is still a bit liquid-like or wobbly return custards to oven and continue to cook, checking every 5 to 7 minutes, until it has just set, with a small area in the center, the size of a quarter, still a bit loose.

Remove ramekins from baking pan and chill custard in refrigerator several hours or until chilled through.

To serve put a thin layer of Fructevia atop each custard. Using a blow torch, over a heat and flame proof surface (like over a large cookie or baking sheet) caramelize the Fructevia working from the outside in towards the middle keeping the torch in constant motion. The Fructevia should be golden brown and caramelized never black. If burnt, let the sugar layer cool a few minutes than peel it away with a paring knife and begin again. Alternatively you could caramelize the Fructevia under a broiler, keeping a careful watch over it and rotating it to cook evenly.

1 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter or low fat margarine

1 tablespoon grated lemon peel
1 teaspoon nutmeg
1 egg
1 cup grated, raw sweet potatoes

Sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, & salt into medium bowl. Set aside.
Cream butter or margarine with the Fructevia, or Steviva Brand Stevia Blend in a large mixing bowl.
Mix in lemon peel, nutmeg, honey, & egg. Then stir in the grated sweet potatoes.
Blend the flour mixture into the sweet potato mixture.

4. Press the dough into a greased cupcake or muffin tin. Prick the base of the pastry all over.
5. Refrigerate for 30 mins, then cook in a moderate oven 375F or for 15 to 20 mins (until golden brown)

1. Put egg yolks, Fructevia or Steviva Brand Stevia Blend and vanilla into a bowl and beat until thick and creamy.
2. Heat cream carefully until almost boiling.
3. Combine the two mixtures, beating until smooth, then add the result to the top of a double boiler and simmer until it thickens (STIR CONSTANTLY).
4. Dissolve the gelatine in the water, and add to the cream mixture, stirring well until it is well mixed.
5. Allow this mixture to cool completely before adding to the pastry case. Refrigerate until it sets.

Directions Topping:
1. Soak the berries in Fructevia or Steviva Brand Stevia Blend for 20 minutes. Drain and and reserve 1 cup of the syrup.
2. Arrange the berries artistically over the top of the tart.
3. Put the reserved syrup, gelatine and rum into a saucepan and heat (stirring) until gelatine dissolves.
4. Cool the liquid and pour over the berries. Refrigerate until set.

Don't be put off by the complexity of the recipe -- it is well worth the effort.

1 teaspoon vanilla
1/4 cup unsweetened natural applesauce

Instructions:
Preheat oven to 325 and spray a baking sheet or 9x12 baking dish with non-stick spray. The 9x12 baking dish will yield thicker bars.
