I tend to use no or low fat cheeses in these recipes, but I'm sure
they'd be very delicious with the regular cheese. :-)

Thanks, Michelle! This is just what I have been looking for. I try to keep
my carbs low, but I also opt for as many low-fat items as possible (although
the two do not always go together).

It can be a dilemma, that's for sure!
