"I have not tried this yet. It sounds like an interesting recipe to take to a potluck. It's from Diabetic Gormet Magazine's daily e-mail and they got it from "1,001 Delicious Recipes" for People with Diabetes. Please note, it is recommended that this chill overnight, which is included in cook time."

I live in southeast Virginia and am an executive secretary for the Army. I love to cook and love food. I have a picky, picky 8-yr old, but he is a true blue chocoholic and budding cook! I have two beautiful granddaughters who visit often. I am teaching them to cook too. <img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/Animation6.gif> I<img src=http://i80.photobucket.com/albums/j166/ZaarNicksMom/PACsticker-Adopted.jpg>
