On my carrot recipe, concerning the '1 can of milk', think I used Milnot, but Carnation or others should work as long as its not sweetened. Or I may have used half and half in mine a couple of times...about one cup full or 8 oz. of milk. It was shared on our Farmer's Wife Pony Club trail ride on QB's Blocks of the Month and Week section...in archives now on this QB board. Since none of our families live close enough to visit, I have cut down on the number of things I make for the holidays and other special days for just the two of us. Dh is diabetic 2 and we both could lose about 50 pounds (or more) and feel better. Guess it is good padding in this minus zero weather we are having.
