Make a 'diet' cake

Have you ever heard of cake made with diet soda?

Well, I haven't, until Lisa Lillien who appeard on abc's the view explained the following:

Get a box of  ready cake mix and instead of using the usual eggs and oil replace them with a can of  diet soda!

For example a chocolate cake mix with diet coke, or a white cake mix with a can of diet cherry soda.

They say it's 170 calories instead of 250 per slice.

 I am not sure if this is really healthy but it sure cuts down the calories.

Lisa Lillien will soon have her own show "Hungry Girl" on the cooking channel.

Yumm side dishes,

Everyone knows how to make fatoosh!

POTATOE GRATIN

1kg Potatoes. 3 garlic cloves. 500ml double cream. Salt and Pepper.

Preheat oven 160* C, slice potatoes thinly, and grate the garlic and place onto potatoes.

Season with salt and pepper. Then pour the cream onto the potatoes. Mix well and then place in the gratin dish.

Bake for 45 to 50 min, could cook for a bit longer!
