I have also been relying on the Jello FF SF Instant pudding lately.
But I just mix it as the package says with skim milk and set it out in
1/2 c serving sizes @ 70-80 cal. I use the Glad or Ziplock 1/2 c
mini-rounds with lids to toss in my lunch bag. I also use the Jello
SF diet Jello, also in the 1/2 c sizes. 1/2 c of either is plenty for
me with lunch or a snack. I like meringues, esp. with almonds, but
I'm cheap and I won't toss the yolks, so I don't make them much.
