Good November morning to you and, as always, good hunting for these requests: roasted pumpkin seeds, broccoli salad and advice on converting a yes-sugar recipe to a no-sugar recipe.

Scott H, embracing the season, carved a pumpkin or two and considered the seeds with curiosity, so he asked, “Any advice on roasting pumpkin seeds?” Mamie is fond of the broccoli salad served at S&S cafeterias and hopes someone has the authentic recipe or has a favorite broccoli salad to share.

SUGAR-FREE DESSERT

Roseann Strazinsky was both general and specific in wondering “if your readers could help me convert my favorite company dessert to serve those with diabetes?” The specific recipe is Chocolate Delight. “I wondered if I changed ingredients to: sugar free/low fat/and lite if that is safe enough for diabetics.”
