Helpful Hints

  • Choose your favorite Kool-Aid® flavor.
  • If taking the sugarless route, it’s easiest to use 2 packets of Kool-Aid® Sugar Free “On the Go” mix. Carbohydrate is reduced to 9 grams and 1/2 Carbohydrate Choice.
  • Since certain types of powdered egg whites can be high in phosphorus and other additives, be sure to check with your dietitian for acceptable brand names of the product. Kelly uses Honeyville’s powdered egg whites, available at www.honeyvillefoods.com.
