(2,159 posts)Do you know fromage frais? It has usually about .05% fat and a very neutral flavor. I have made a mock cheesecake by mixing in eggs and some thickener (ground oatbran, tsp tapioca flour, or equivalent) and a dollop of low fat Phila cream cheese. No crust. I haven,t made it in a long while, so I cannot remember the proportions, but it has come out lovely. Beware of the number of eggs...too many and the texture is not right!
I feel for you on the four pounds. It is water weight. The other day the nurse just me I had lost, but not how much. I had had a lot of salt the previous day, so I was prepared to hear anything.
Oh, I forgot to say that quark, if you don't know it, is also super low in fat, but it is a bit acidic. Probably OK for a lemon flavored cheesecake. And I have tried straining yoghurt overnight. The lowest fai ones are too runny (0.01%).
