Heavy Cream Substitute - You're Gonna Love This

Got recipes that call for whipping cream, yet you can only bring yourself to make them for very special occasions because of all the fat? Make every day a special occasion with this heavy cream substitute!

8 oz low-fat cottage cheese
3 Tablespoons non-fat dried milk

Blend for five minutes and voila!

Now I need to warn you, it's a little more salty than cream, so if your recipe calls for salt, don't add it until giving the final dish a taste.

I have not tried it yet with a sweet dish, but I have tried it in pasta and soup and had great results. Give it a try and let me know how you use it!
