October 17, 2012 - What To Do Around The Bonfire?

So, as you know, today is my last blog for the week as our women's conference starts tomorrow. I'll be too tired to be creative :) but so FULL of the Holy Spirit. :) I know with these cooler temps, we are all being asked to bonfires, etc and sometimes I REALLY miss roasting a marshmallow. Well today's blog is a recipe share. I think I found one. So, as soon as we have time, let's start playing with this and share what we found as we made them. I will use xylitol for the sugar substitute. If you play with this, let us know. Until Monday, keep lifting up your eyes and asking for God's help. He wants His kids healthy every bit as much as we want it. Ask him for the anointing to skip the fries. (a couple of us are working on a recipe with Jicama that may REALLY satisfy that.) So thankful we're together! I need you, PK Marshmallows Low Carb Recipe By Fitness and Freebies Make your own low carb marshmallows with gelatin, sugar substitute, egg whites, vanilla extract and water. Not that difficult and well worthwhile! Great toasted over a bonfire. Recipe Ingredients 3 envelopes unflavored gelatin 5 tablespoons sugar substitute 3 egg whites 2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1/4 cup cold water 3/4 cup boiling water Recipe Directions Sprinkle gelatin over cold water in a mixing bowl. Set aside for 5 minutes to soften. Add to boiling water in saucepan; cook and stir until gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat. Cool to consistency of thick syrup. Stir in Splenda and vanilla. Beat egg whites until soft peaks begin to form. Very slowly, trickle a small stream of gelatin mixture into egg white, beating until all gelatin is mixed in. Continue beating until light and fluffy (but not dry.) Pour into pan, cool to set, and cut (smaller for mini-marshmallows). 5 carbs in entire recipe.
