I am looking forward to trying Flax porridge when my flax arrives. I am thinking of getting sugarfree penutbutter or sugerfree Jam and putting it in if you can even get them?

What does Flax porridge taste like? do you just put water in it? or could you put a bit of double cream in it aswell?

It is actually really nice and filling, tastes a bit more earthy than cereal, similar consistency to semolina, but nice. I really miss my muesli and porridge for breakkie so it's a nice change. I have gotten sugar free jam (diabetic hubby), still has carbs but not too much.

I make mine cereal by the recipe that says use water, but then add a tsp of butter and a splash of cream and even blueberries when I have them in the house

Lol I do love spinach but have been distracted by making lovely MIMs!!

 

[cherl889]

Spinach is lower in carbs than a mim! I limit myself to a mim as a treat

Where do you get these from sound amazing!! how many carbs in each bar?

At the moment they're 25% off at Boots (they're quite expensive!) and I think the brownie one is 3.1g carbs so quite high but there is a choc orange one thats only 1.9g and its gorgeous!

weeeeelllllllll..................................
courgettes arent bad! i like them with pesto found asdas are really low car 4.2 per 100g, 190g per jar and used 2 tps

had mozarella too...might have to rethink the courgettes for a past sub though, it breaks too easily and my meatballs, were overcooked when i made them a few weeks ago, frozen the reheated....were like frikkin cardboard!!!

SO, more planning BUT i will get the recipe right one day lol

B- A very over priced sausage (yes just the one!!!!) and scrambled egg from a tea shop in Edenbridge.
L- The last of the meat loaf with spinach (thanks Vicky)
D- Probly a plain MiM with the rest of the Brussels pate.

I bought a packet of flax from sainsbury £2.75ish for 170 grams. The carb content is 1g per 100g so less than 2g of carbs in the bag.
To make my MiM I use two heaped dessert spoons of the flax, with an egg, baking powder and a knob of butter. So far I have made 4 MiMs and have used about a quarter of the bag - so even if I round the bag up to 2g of carbs, that makes about .25g of flax carb in each MiM
Does that sound right??

I've just put a cheeseburger pie in the oven and just realised I forgot the mayo! Will it make a difference or will it just taste like mince with a cheese omlette on top?!

 

[xx Cathy xx]

B - 2 Slices Bacon and some fried Mushrooms
L - 8oz Sirloin Steak (Rare) with salad and mayo in Wetherspoons
S - 1 Stick of Rhubarb roasted with tsp splenda and cream - yum!
D - Cheeseburger pie, may have it on its own as I've had plenty of greens today and I'm not exactly ravenous.
