Here's a tip for recipes using milk or cream. Instead of using regular fat free milk, use evaporated fat free milk. It is thicker and creamier, but no fat. I use it for mashed potatoes and any creamed recipe. It does not work for baking recipes due to the no-fat content, but for anything else it's great. House brands work just as well as big-name brands.
