Tried any good low cal or low point or low fat or low carb recipes lately? Found a diet-friendly product in the grocery store? If it was yummy, we need to know about it! Thanks, Buddies!

Oriental Sweet & Sour Vegetable Stew

1 can (14 ounce) no salt added diced tomatoes

1/3 cup date sugar

1/3 cup apple cider vinegar

1/2 cup onion, chopped

6 white or brown mushrooms, quartered

2 carrots, cut into thin strips

3 stalks celery, including leaves, diagonally chopped

1 package bean sprouts

1 inch piece ginger, minced

1/2 to 1 clove garlic, minced

1 bay leaf

3 whole cloves

1 bell pepper, cut into thin strips

In a large pot with a good fitting lid, mix all ingredients together, bring to a boil, turn to medium and let cook at least one hour, stirring occasionally.

Thanks for the recipe, Gail. I'm not much for eating peppers and onions, but I love to smell them cooking. That soup looks like it would smell heavenly while it was cooking.

I discovered a long time ago that you don't need to coat stew beef in flour and brown it in fat, you can use broth to get the same result.

My mom used to make a chocolate cake with vinegar in it. I'm pretty sure the recipe was called "Wacky Cake". It was really good!
