Hi, Wendy - I eat a flaxseed porridge recipe every day in the winter, except when I fancy pancakes : ) I grind enough flaxseed to get a couple of tablespoonfuls, sometimes with a few walnuts or a brazil nut thrown in the grinder, then mix with a beaten egg. It fries to a lovely crisp outside and nutty inside, perfect for serving with low-carb maple syrup. Hmmm... think I'll have some tomorrow... The same recipe with hot water instead of egg is the porridge. I can make up a week's worth at a time, store it in the fridge, and be sure of it not going off. Googling the alt.support.diet.low-carb group would also be fruitful. I got some flax seed bread recipes from there, and also a muffin recipe which I appear to have misfiled somewhere - but I prefer almond flour muffins, so I don't make the flax seed variety any more.

I don't have any actual recipes. I was using it for things I bake for Angela since she can't have eggs. However, due to the laxative effect, it is something I can't use very often. -- See my webpage: http://mysite.verizon.net/juliebove/index.htm |

This puzzles me - it had the opposite effect on me when I started eating it. Now it just keeps me regular, and I make sure I drink enough alongside it.

Huh. My daughter and I both found it to be a laxative. We both tend towards having problems that way though. Never constipation. -- See my webpage: http://mysite.verizon.net/juliebove/index.htm |
