This is an old favourite from my weight watchers days which I'd forgotten about. It's low fat, no sugar, a good way to eat some fruit and I used wholegrain bread to increase the fibre. Also threw in about 1/4 cup almond slivers. Great tonight for a warming dessert, I'll be making it again soon. -
A Great recipe which not only our diabetic friends love, but we also prefer to the usual heavy xmas pud. I normally double the quantities, and instead of steaming, I microwave on medium for 15 - 20 mins (checking after each 5 min period). Excellent Xmas flavour, without the 'after dinner bloated feeling'! -
Well, I wouldn't trust someone who has never made a steamed pudding before to make one! LOL Great flavor but lots of errors on my part. I need some help, but I hope to be able to try it again soon!

I'm an ex-pat NZer living in the tropical Top End of Australia. Which makes it a perfect place to make homemade bread and summer recipes all year around. I experiment on my 3 kids who have grown up trying new Zaar recipes every other day and they are thriving.
I'm the lacto-ovo vegetarian in the family and somehow I got roped in to become a Forum Host here at Zaar. So check out the Vegetarian and Vegan Forum http://www.recipezaar.com/bb/viewforum.zsp?f=43 and feel free to join in whether you are a fully fledged vegan or someone who needs to cater for a vegetarian and has no idea where to start.
Every year I try to do something a bit different to push the envelope a little bit. In 2005 I learned how to sail a dinghy; 2006's grand passion is mosaics. Check out my blog!
Between raising three children, working almost fulltime and trying to pursue my hobbies...let's say that my time management skills have greatly improved over the years!
I am also very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle. Essentially I'm finding that I'm getting back to the country lifestyle I enjoyed in my childhood even though these days I live in themiddle of suburbia. To this end I have started gardening although I am a total gardening virgin when it comes to gardening in a tropical climate. I also have a cookbook with a number of recipes you can make from scratch. Living clean and green is good for you AND cheaper!
