Tahini
I was at the health food store buying my sugar free peanut butter, and
I found this stuff called tahini, which tastes a lot like peanut butter but has fewer carbs. The sugar free peanut butter I buy has a about 12g of carbs, but this tahini has only 5+. It is made from sesame seeds. It tastes a bit more dry than peanut butter, and it has a slight bitterness to it, but it makes a good spread for your low carb bread or high fiber crackers.

It's not carby, but it is calorie. I use the light kind. That's light color, not lite calorie.

Zap some yogurt and garlic together in a blender and then stir it into tahini. Heaven. -- Bob Kanyak's Doghouse http://www.kanyak.com

Mmmmmm tahini.
If you want to find great things to do with tahini, look up Greek or Middle Eastern recipes. "Martin W.
