    If you are on Atkins, you probably stopped drinking milk. If you stopped drinking milk, you probably have dry bones and all the kids call you Mr. Glass. Your not getting your calcium are you? Come on, be honest. Ok, Maybe you are some other way, I'm sorry to jump to conclusions. 

    Regardless, if you're on Atkins you probably stopped drinking milk when you discovered its high carb count. Maybe you're like me and you miss having that cold glass of milk with your low carb cookie. Well, there is an solution for that yearning in your heart. 

    An Atkins friend of mine introduced me to a yummy milk substitute that Blue Diamond just came out with called Almond Breeze Vanilla (unsweetend). With hardly any carbs at all its a great creamy treat for milk that has a nice vanilla taste to it.

    The sweetened version tastes even better, but will get you up to 16 carbs a cup. This one has a far less sweet taste but still tastes of vanilla, which for a milk replacement is probably a better choice anyway. . I also feel the need to mention that it has about twice as much calcium in in than regular milk does. So now your bones wont break every time you hit a pothole with your car.

It's good. use it in your coffee and teas, or for cooking if you need to

This stuff has been around for awhile! They also have chocolate and plain, both in unsweetened. Great for making shakes or smoothies with. Add some stevia or splenda to make it taste really good.
