You seem to eat Asiago cheese every day - I still don't know what it is?
Perhaps you could be kind and tell me, as it's probably something we
don't have in the UK

That sounds utterly delicious!

dessert: "diet cocoa pudding" (1 cup light cream, 1 Ts unsweetened cocoa,
1/2 Ts cinnamon)

If it were me, I'd use natural yogurt or fromage frais rather than
cream, as they have less fat and fewer calories - perhaps enough so I
could allow a tiny bit of sugar in it with the chocolate. Or honey.....

I'm sure you have it in the deli shops... It's goat cheese, semi-soft; I eat
it rather frequently these days because DH bought 2 kg of it :-)

If it were me, I'd use natural yogurt or fromage frais rather than
cream, as they have less fat and fewer calories - perhaps enough so I
could allow a tiny bit of sugar in it with the chocolate. Or honey.....

Oh, I'd love to be able to eat Greek yoghurt & honey (the habit I picked up
when living in London), but I don't tolerate honey well...
I have to try the natural yoghurt w/unsweetened cocoa... it hasn't occurred
to me yet to try that. I tried it once with cottage cheese, but didn't like
it much.
The reason I picked the light cream is because it has only 2 grams of carbs
per 100 mL.

Ooh, sounds lovely - I ADORE goat cheese. I don't know I'd care for it
in eggs, though, but it is great to nibble or spread.

I tend not to eat cream when I'm actively trying to lose weight.

Is that not true of all cream, though?

I meant that more in correlation to yoghurt, which is higher in carbs...
