- Comments
- You could reduce the calories and fat grams considerably by substituting
skim milk for the whole milk and by substituting the mascarpone with
1 8 oz. package reduced fat cream cheese, 3 tablespoons reduced fat sour
cream and 2 tablespoons skim milk. This saves about 5.4 fat grams and
46 calories per serving.
