Easy to Make Diabetic Fudge Recipe
I'm looking for an easy, very easy to make diabetic peanut butter fudge recipe. I used to have one that was a no cook recipe but I can't find it. Does anyone have one?

I was wondering if anyone knew how long potato flakes would be good for. I have a bag of flakes in the cupboard and I think they are 2 years old. I could make instant potaoes for the dogs if need be, I suppose, to use them up. Any suggestions for using them besides thickening stews and soups?

I am looking for a recipe that I have used many times and now I can't find it. It is for a no browning, easy, oven-baked swiss steak. I know part of the recipe includes ketchup combined with worcestershire sauce which you pour over the pieces of round steak in a baking pan. You can add chopped celery, onions and mushrooms. I believe that the recipe also calls for a little red cooking wine. I love this recipe as it's so easy to make and tastes like you slaved for hours. Does this ring a bell with anybody?

Ingredients
Directions
Boil 6 potatoes till they are done, put in large pot. Boil the other 6 potatoes and onions until they are a little over done and really soft. When you boil the potatoes, add only enough water that will cover them and cook the second batch of potatoes with the chicken base mixed in the water. Add all ingredients to the large pot and then add enough milk to get the consistency you would like.
