Hi Dawn - I make my coleslaw dressing with 1 part mayo and 2 parts nonfat Greek yogurt. Flavor it up with freshly squeezed lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, celery salt and a little bit of sugar or honey.

Hi Tami -
Since WW flour is typically more coarse, the mix of the two types of flours gives the best texture. If you give a try using all whole wheat, I would suggest using the whole wheat pastry flour. Let us know how it comes out.

Hi Nancy -
We kept this recipe to five ingredients but raisins, dried currants, and caraway seeds would all be fabulous additions. Thanks for your comment.

Hi Lynn - here is Food Network Kitchen's basic chocolate cookie dough recipe
Classic Chocolate Cookies
Beat 1 1/4 cups granulated sugar and 1 stick butter until fluffy, then beat in 1 egg and 1 teaspoon vanilla. Whisk 1 1/2 cups flour, 1/2 cup Dutch-process cocoa powder, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon baking powder; stir into the butter mixture. Chill 30 minutes, then roll into balls and bake 12 to 15 minutes at 350 degrees.

Then use these instructions for crispy and thin wafers http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/food-network-kitchens/cocoa-wafers-recipe/index.html

Hi Jill - It's harder to go overboard (calorie-wise) with steamed veggie but it never hurts to check your portions to see how much you are eating at each meal. Make sure to account for any condiments you might use (butter, olive oil, salad dressing, etc.). Thanks for your comment!

Hi Randy Lay -
Great question! You can definitely get away with using a vegetable-oil based spread instead of butter, but you might miss that true butter flavor and the sauce would lose some body. The cholesterol will come down a bit but the total calories will stay the same. If you try it, let us know how it comes out. Thanks for your comment.
