Here is a couple:

2 eggs
2 cups milk
1/8 teaspoon each: salt and ground nutmeg
Sugar substitute equal to 1/3 cup sugar (i.e., 1/3 cup SugarTwinŽ)

Mix all ingredients in a blender, then pour into 1 medium-sized casserole or 5 individual casseroles, sprayed with nonstick spray. Set casserole(s) in a larger, shallow pan containing 1" hot water. Bake in a preheated 325 degree oven for 1 hour, or until knife inserted near edge of custard comes out clean. Let cool briefly, then refrigerate. Serves 5.
