Diet-Friendly "Virgin" Egg Nog Recipe

From Jennifer R. Scott, About.com GuideDecember 18, 2009

Follow me on:

I was thrilled this week to learn this diet-friendly (and alcohol-free) egg nog recipe that comes in at under 150 calories!

And possibly even more thrilling? A kitchen newbie like me "cooking" something that required only pushing a button on the blender ... and yet it somehow impressed my holiday guests! Cheers!

Egg substitute, 1 ½ c.
1% milk, 1 c.
Fat-free half and half, 1 c.
Sugar, ½ c.
Vanilla, 2 tsp.
Ground nutmeg, 1 ½ tsp

Combine all ingredients. Blend in blender until smooth.

Calories per serving: 127

I would recommend 1/2 cup Splenda (or equivalent no-cal sweetener) to replace the 1/2 cup sugar to save even more calories without diminishing the taste.

Why not substitute Splenda or other no-cal sweetener for the 1/2 cup sugar?

Why not use stevia instead of sugar, or half and half…sugar and stevia??
It does work, I use it in other recipes…
