Helpful hints
- Plain or flavored nondairy creamer may be used instead or rice milk.
Susan says her patients and teammates prefer coconut cream flavor.
- Vanilla or coconut extract may be used in place of almond extract.
- For diabetics use Splenda® instead of sugar to reduce carbohydrate to 44
grams and calories to 364 per serving or serve a half portion.
- Liquid egg substitute is recommended. If eggs are used instead, calories
are 550, fat 24 g, phosphorus 263 mg and cholesterol 423 mg.

Your recipe sounds great. Make it a non sweet breakfast or supper by putting low sodium swiss cheese and low sodium ham on bread. Swipe the bread with some mustard. Use the egg substitute. No idea what the calories, etc. would break down to but better than using my original recipe.

1 1/2 c onion??? I could be wrong but I don't think that should be included in the ingredient list. I did not see it in the recipe itself. Otherwise, this looks great! Moderator comment:You are right and the recipe has been corrected with no onions. We are recreating some of the recipes and this one missed the double-check. Thank you!
