Eggless Eggnog--Just Call This "Nog"

Today's recipe is an oldie but a goodie--an eggless version of one of my favorite holiday indulgences--eggnog--one that I just call "nog"!

I love, love, love, a good quality eggnog--and trust me, all brands that you buy are not created equally. The trouble with eggnog, though, is that it's pricey, loaded with calories, and full of all of those good things we try to stay away from--fat and sugar. This version is not only delicious, but less expensive, healthier, and can be modified even further to fit many types of dietary restrictions.


Ingedients:
  • 1/2 gallon milk
  • 1 pkg instant French vanilla pudding mix
  • 1/2 c sugar
  • 2 t vanilla
  • 1/2 t cinnamon
  • 1/2 t nutmeg
Stir pudding mix, sugar, vanilla, nutmeg, and cinnamon into about a cup of milk until well dissolved. Add the remaining milk, stirring well, and refrigerate until well chilled. Stir before serving, as the spices tend to float up.

The only thing missing from this eggless nog is the thickness of "real" eggnog, which can be somewhat remedied by stirring a dollop of whipped topping into each serving.

Have a wonderful holiday!

Until next time, good cooking, and good eating!

  2. The limits characterize the 점보카지노 maximum and minimal bets allowed in the recreation and it's necessary you discover ways to|learn to} match them together with your bankroll. What differs, however, are your possibilities to win on the recreation. The major difference between the European and the American roulette is the order of the numbers on the roulette wheel.
