Ok so im off to look at the rest of the site just wanted to let you chicks know of a place for new recipe's.

Britt - GROAN -- now, I'll never be happy with just putting cheese on my pita's anymore. I'd never thought of brushing the outside and heating them up. You could even play around with a tuna melt. . . (not sure that 6oz of tuna would FIT in a 4" inch pita, but still . .)

Thanks Britt - can't wait to try some of these and look for myself -

Wow - I've looked at several of the recipes on that site and they look so wonderful and so easy to adapt to make OP......yummy yummy - I can't wait to try to egg pita in the morning....

They do look yummy dont they!! you will enjoy your egg pita pocket its great but since i have had it the past what 3 days lol i think im gonna go for something different this morning lol.

I think I'm going to try that and maybe spice it up a little tomorrow morning - I can't wait - hoping to find the garlic and herb LC cheese today

Good Luck finding it! If you dont find it go ahead and use the original flavor and maybe add some of your own seasonings to it.

How do you count the Laughing Cow?

Thanks for this website I see several recipes that I would like to try.

Katie I count each triangle as 1 oz so for me thats 1/2 D They are really only 3/4oz but i still count as 1 and then maybe add a little bit more for whatever im using as my other 1/2 D. And Tee your welcome let us know what you try and how you like it.

Britt that website had so many good looking recepies on it. I cant wait to try them out

No fair Brit - I'm jealous - I only get 1oz = 1 D......now I'm sad....I'm such a cheese lover....

I thought that all plans got 2 oz for their dairy. What color are you on?

I'm on gold - it says 1 oz = 1D

Wow, too bad!
