Sweetness choices — tap to lower sugar

Use the listed ingredients and amounts. Nutrition, saved shopping and meal planning remain based on this version.

Preparation guidance only. When a supported swap is chosen, Nutrition per serving below shows the adjusted values; filters, sugar screening, exports, Shopping and My Week stay based on the written recipe. A different sweetener does not establish diabetes suitability; total carbs, portion and verified sugars still matter.

Sugar alcohols may cause digestive symptoms; keep xylitol away from dogs. Aspartame must be avoided with PKU. No substitute is universally the healthiest choice.

Heart-healthy tips

Use plain, unsweetened ingredients and unsalted nuts, seeds and cooked beans; added sauces and toppings change nutrition.
Lower sugar does not guarantee glucose response or diabetes suitability. Check the complete meal, actual portion and your own carbohydrate targets.
Use only the named liquid stevia formula. Concentrates, packets and baking blends are not interchangeable. Label zeros are rounded, not proof of absolute absence.
Refrigerate perishable preparations promptly; do not leave out over 2 hours, or 1 hour above 90°F (32°C). Candy here is not shelf-stable.

Storage & Meal Prep Tips

Applies to: Blended drink, after blending. Times assume safe preparation, prompt cooling when needed, a refrigerator at 40°F / 4°C or below, and a freezer at 0°F / -18°C or below.

Refrigerator: After blending: refrigerate in a sealed jar and drink within 1 day; shake before drinking.

Freezer: Freeze components only. The blended drink separates when frozen; freeze the fruit and ingredients as ready-to-blend packs instead.

To reheat or serve: Serve cold.

Meal prep tip: Portion fruit and add-ins into freezer packs; blend fresh with liquid.
